| We want to express our thanks to our contributors
and partners for their financial contributions and their prayers. To our
family, friends and cast members, we owe more than we can express in words.
You have journeyed with us and have been steadfast in prayer, giving advice
and showing your commitment and dedication each week as you give of your
time during our rehearsals and performances. Many people have been blessed
as we continue to transform the spoken Word through music and drama.
With the prayers and financial support of our partners, family and friends,
the Lord continues to bless as we journey together in His ministry. |

| Fundraising
Fundraising events are an important part of Revelation
Ministries. This organization exists to bring about a spiritual change
in the lives of those we touch with our musical dramas. You also
have an opportunity to be part of this ministry by serving, praying and
financially supporting us while we travel locally and abroad presenting
the gospel of Jesus Christ through music and drama. Giving for many
is a form of being a part of and participating in Christian organizations,
partnering and supporting and helping family and friends as well.
With your financial support we will continue to
spread the GOOD NEWS of the Gospel. Revelation Ministries has been
blessed tremendously the past fourteen years. We are excited that in the
years to come, we will continue to bring the message of hope in Jesus Christ
to the world. Raising funds for our ministry can be challenging; but we
believe that as Christians, we have a responsibility and mission to carry
the Gospel to everyone as Christ has instructed us in the Bible.
People are calling for
peace everywhere, tearing down walls built by time. Others are fighting
for cause and rights, laying it on the line. We have mission for
greater than these; we’ve been commissioned to go. We have a message of
hope and real peace that the entire world needs to know. We have
a mission to carry the gospel to every lamb that is lost. We have
a mission of love and compassion, no matter what the cost. Piercing
the night with the light of truth, pointing the way to the cross.
We have a mission, God’s great commission, we must reach the lost.
Hurting and broken, the
masses cry out, desperate for answers to life; no where to go, when tragedy
comes, piercing their heart like a knife. The world just doesn’t
need another hero today, to tell them what they know they shouldn’t do.
They need to hear that somebody loves them and it’s up to me and you.
Our Captain has give us
orders to March, don’t look to the left or the right. He’s given
us the power to accomplish our mission and victory’s just in sight. |

| Your Support:
While God has opened up doors for us to develop
a greater heart of compassion for His people around the world, the exciting
part is that you will be able to share in this compassion in several ways.
First, you can help pray for us. We need prayers that God will prepare
us for our performances and bless our efforts as we minister to the people.
Another way you can be involved is to help provide financial support.
At this time we need monthly financial support to continue His work.
Revelation Ministries needs to raise funds for
“He Lives!”©, that we present in prisons and churches, as well as
our newest production, Devil or Angel©, which is a story of love,
life and redemption. We are scheduled this year for many performances of
“He Lives” and continue to receive invitations for prisons and homeless
outreach centers.
Revelation Ministries is also in the process of
producing “Devil or Angel?”© in September of 2009, and the budget
for this production is 100,000. We have received several invitations to
bring this production to state fairs throughout the United States, but
we can’t do it without your monthly and/or yearly financial support.
Whether you feel led to contribute financially, through prayer, or both,
your support is appreciated.
We look forward to doing God’s work throughout
the world and letting you know all about how God has worked through Revelation
Ministries cast and crew through our website and E-newsletters.
Are there Biblical principles to follow when
you are considering giving to any cause?
We believe there are worthy social organizations
serving the needs of the poor, sick and the elderly. The vast
majority make no claim of doing so in the Name of the Lord.
Many don’t realize that there are many organizations
you may be contributing to that are anti-Christian. It is important
to know that your financial support will actually be used for the purpose
of which they were given. Be certain that we are a Christian organization
who loves the Lord and the people. We want to see the world change
spiritually before it is too late. We are not a highly-visible
organization nor advertise regularly, but those... we minister to is...
essential. (You can read further on what we believe
under our “About Us” tab.)
Let him who is taught
the word share in all good things with him who teaches.
Galatians 6:6
The most important principle of all is to allow
God to direct your giving. We are told to lean upon God’s wisdom
and not our own understanding (Proverbs 3:5), and we believe this also
applies to giving.
Where better to invest
your donations than in saving people,
of all ages, all over
the world.
It's a world that needs
Jesus, NOW, more than ever.
If you require additional information about Revelation
Ministries, please reply on our contact page; and we will respond immediately
to your request. We will be happy to answer any questions you may
have. If you are sending your donation in the form of a check,
please make it payable to Revelation Ministries, Inc. |

| Fundraiser Events:
It’s
Never Gonna Rain Fundraiser:
This first fundraising event
was in 1997 where over $35,000 was pledged. This allowed us to create
the script “The Greatest Love of All”©. In 1999 the Lord directed
a mission trip to Ukraine, Russia, where we taught people to do short skits
at army camps, jails, orphanages and in the streets.
Harvest
Time Dinner Auction:
On November 3, 2001, we held a live and silent
auction in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Participants enjoyed a
lovely dinner and entertainment by the Swing Sisters.
In
2005 we premiered “Christmas Celebration”© and in 2006 Creation
Celebration© in Kiev, Ukraine. In 2006, we began preparations
for our mission work in England. In 2007 Revelation Ministries
was invited to a Fort Lauderdale Mission Festival where we met representatives
from Prison Fellowship. Shortly thereafter, “He Lives!”©
was created. (Learn more about “He Lives!”© in our prison page).
“He
Lives!”© is a 45-minute minimalist production that depicts the story
of Jesus through his birth, healing ministry, crucifixion and resurrection.
We continue to travel throughout counties in Florida presenting “He Lives!”©
at youth detention centers, churches, senior citizen venues, homeless and
community outreach centers, prisons, and jails. We also have invitations
to present this unique musical in the countries of Africa, Holland and
Russia.
Mission
London:
We
were invited by Share Jesus International to participate in the Pentecost
08 in London, England. We performed “He Lives!”© at several
London churches; but crowning achievement God gave us was performing
on the lawn of Westminster Abbey, something that had never been done
before in its 1045-year history. Because we could not ask people
to come forward at the invitation we do not know how many of the
approximately 500 people who were watching would have accepted Christ.
(You can view a 10-minute video of Revelation Ministries in London,
May 08 on www.youtube.com).
Revelation
Ministries performed at over 20 sites locally and abroad in 2008.
Over 120 people were saved at one of our performances. |

| Expected 2009 Fundraiser:
In 2007, “Devil or Angel©” underwent a rewrite
with the goal to produce this script in August 2009. We anticipate
doing three performances in September.
The setting for this production is 1962.
It is jam-packed with all the music, humor, nerds, beehive hair-dos, styles
and culture of the era. More than just entertaining, it is a “True
Love Story” of teenagers in love, 50’s and 60’s rock ‘n roll and a devastating
tragedy bringing new life! During one of the scenes one of the Christian
girls invites an unsaved young man to a church play (“He Lives!”©);
he finds himself feeling different and decides to make a change in his
life. “Devil or Angel?”© is funny, it’s sad and it’s powerful!
It’s loud! It’s really rock ‘n roll! It’s in tune with everyone from 60-years
olds (who danced to its rhythms as teens)…to baby boomers…to today’s pre-teens
(who know more of vintage Rock than the last generation!)
We have already received invitations to perform
"Devil or Angel?"© at state fairs throughout the United States. |
