Christmas PIE(chart) - Update on Appeal - 16 Dec 2004

The 24-7 community is rising to the challenge of our annual appeal and the responses are coming in daily. "I hesitate to bring advanced statistical analysis into a movement of prayer," jokes Andy Stez, who heads up our Prayer Resource Department "but as of 20th December, the pie chart looked like this:"

Stez continues: "OK, so this is my first pie chart, but believe me, it represents

something hugely impressive. That blue triangle represents people who have actually responded to our appeal with gifts to help mobilise mission and justice through 24-7 Prayer. So to all those of you who have given already...  Thank you!
 
Mind you, there is still plenty of pie to go! So, if you haven't made your response yet, please prayerfully consider doing so. It's been suggested that Christmas is the very worst time of year for an appeal - cos everyone's broke! But what better time? You've only got to click around this web site to see how your generosity can make sense of Immanuel - God with us for many people throughout the year:
 
More Prayer rooms + more Mission Teams + more Boiler Rooms =  more lives transformed, more of the world impacted, more of the gospel lived out, more invitations for ordinary people like you and me to get on our knees and spend time with our Creator.
 
I give to 24-7 for loads of reasons. Remembering back to my first hour, alone with God in a prayer room . . . Ultimately, that's why.

PS: To be very honest, many of us aren't that comfortable talking about something as dirty/dangerous as money in a heavenly stirring of prayer, mission, justice. But let's keep it real - we need to be faithful with the favour God's given 24-7.  Ibiza, Parliament, 56 nations, teens praying through the night, etc, etc. It really is a privilege to journey together in this way, but let's not miss opportunities for the want of stoopid 'here today gone tomorrow' cash. Let's invest our temporary treasure into something eternal. Amen!
