Dear Friends,
What a year! Hope is in the air as we look back at all we have accomplished this year and consider the possibilities ahead. We want to say a big THANK YOU for your friendship and support.
We praise God for each and every one of you!
The Christmas season, with its focus on the birth of Jesus Christ, is at the center of this hope. The Savior was born, died for our sins, rose from the grave, and reigns on high!
The words of 1 Peter 1:3 come to mind, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.”
It is that hope that keeps us energized, even in the midst of what others think is impossible. That is how we approached this election year, and we saw God move in miraculous ways.
But we couldn’t engage the way that we do without your help. YOU have gifted us with your time, talent, and/or treasure, and we are beyond grateful.
Let me list just a few of the things we were able to accomplish this year, thanks to you!
- Advocated for life through a campaign against ballot initiative Proposition 79 via e-alerts, speaking engagements, tabling, and widespread distribution of educational materials.
- Advocated for marriage between one man and one woman by opposing the ballot initiative to remove our constitutional ban on same-sex marriage. We sent out multiple e-alerts, tabled, and distributed educational materials.
- Tabled at several churches and at Colorado Christian University multiple times to get out the vote and encourage prayer for the election.
- Attended the Pro-Life Rally in April at the state capitol representing all of you and the unborn.
- Added a local Prayer/Action Chapter in Westminster.
- Grew our Encourage-A-Legislator program this year to cover 60 state legislators. Our volunteers provided monthly postcards and daily prayer throughout the 2024 legislative session.
- Wrote letters to the University of Colorado President, Athletic Director, Board of Governors, and others, in response to the University’s women’s volleyball team playing San Jose State which had a male transgender athlete participating on their team. I also had an op-ed published in the The Gazette about the issue.
2025, Here We Come!
We are believing in a God-sized vision for CWA of Colorado’s engagement for next year. Now is not the time to let up. We need to commit to prayer and action now more than ever. We have a great opportunity to exert generational transformation in the name of our Lord in the next year that will benefit our children and grandchildren. So, we will need your help! Please pray about what you can do and make yourself available to the Lord.
Please prayerfully consider making a final year-end, tax-deductible gift of $100, $50, $25, or other to continue the work here in Colorado. It will make a huge difference for our state! Send a check to the address below or contribute online.
And remember, let’s keep our eyes on that Blessed Hope; we will stand triumphant in His glory alone.
In His Service,
