Letter from Bill:
Dear Friends of APMedia, Over 350,000 people in one day… This is how many people who heard the Christmas Story through our movie “Ang Regalo” the first day it was released to social media alone. Thank you for your prayers over this project.
This short film, a modern-day retelling of the birth of Jesus, was produced with one purpose in mind— as a culturally-relevant way to reach Southeast Asia with the true meaning of Christmas.
Many Filipino congregations around the world and in the U.S. used the video in their services during the Advent season. A large international church in Jakarta used it in all their services and satellite congregations.
The production was truly an international effort —from our top-notch videographer in the UK, director, and editor from the Philippines and U.S.A as well as friends like you.
As a faithful AP Media partner, not only are you a shareholder in the “Ang Regalo” film project, each and every day you literally “keep the lights on for us”—allowing our 12-person creative team to start another day in the Asia Pacific Media office.
YOU MAKE OUR MINISTRY POSSIBLE! The rally of support in the past couple of months, is helping us continue the work to see His Message, Multiplied in 2016! We couldn’t have achieved this without you! Our team is already hard at work in Manila, Taip
ei, and Hong Kong and soon a new work will take root in Japan.
By the time you read this, we will also be preparing for a training trip to
Myanmar. We have a prime opportunity utilize media to impact the Buddhist world and we are aggressively seeking to expedite these projects.
Two of our full-length feature films are now voice-dubbed to reach Indonesia, the largest Islamic nation in the world. Christianity, Indonesia’s second-largest religion, is still allowed to grow and spread. AP Media will train Indonesian believers and churches to utilize media to share the gospel message in a culturally relevant way.
I believe His Word: His mercies are new every morning! He is faithful! So, this year I am believing God for 100 new foundational partners. Each month we need 100 additional partners to give an hour or more of ministry support to reach Asia Pacific.
Can you prayerfully consider giving or increasing your monthly gift by an hour ($50), a day ($400) or even a week of ministry support ($2,800)?
Even if you are unable to give $50 a month, each smaller gift will be combined with others to cover an hour of ministry to reach Asia Pacific.
In light of the hundreds of thousands that are being reached through our 12-member AP Media creative team, will you be one of 100 to partners to join us or increase your monthly giving in 2016?
Thank you for being one of 100 today to see His Message, Multiplied. That is the only message that truly transforms people's lives.
Thank you and God bless!
