WLJN FALL GIFT DRIVE 2026
When: September 14th - September 18th
Where: WLJN Worship - 1101 Cass St Traverse City Michigan
Today I’m thinking about “new beginnings.”
Michael knows what I’m talking about. He is a listener who recently started and is promoting a Christian Business ministry through WLJN and The Source. Michael was recently hospitalized after passing out while running errands. While struggling with waiting for tests and procedures that “he didn’t have time for,” God turned something in his spirit and Mike prayed: “I don’t know if this is it for me - and if it’s my time, God, I’m ready to go. But if you have more for me to do, let me stay.” And he suddenly felt content.
A short time later, a tech came in, they cancelled all the tests & procedures, the monitor showed that something suddenly happened in his heart and was in a regular rhythm again. And Tuesday, he was standing the lobby of WLJN with a renewed enthusiasm and determination to make a difference through Christian business in the region. “Let’s Do This!” We are praising the Lord with Mike!
In Isaiah 43:19, God says: “See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”
God is a God of fresh starts, second chances, and new beginnings. We’re seeing those new beginnings here at WLJN Worship as well.
As I step into my new role as Station Manager at Northern Christian Radio, I am filled with gratitude and excitement for all the new things God is doing at WLJN Worship. Even after the devastating ice storm of 2025 took down our sister station tower, God has continued to make a way in the wilderness. He has been faithful through every challenge, and now we are seeing new things spring up all around us. New opportunities, new growth, new reach, and new stories of lives being touched by the hope of Jesus.
When you give to WLJN , you do more than support a radio station. You partner in ministry. You help make sure the message of hope continues to go out clearly and faithfully. You become part of the new thing God is doing through this ministry.
Fall Fundraiser is September 14-18, and with the additional expenses of rebuilding our tower, this needs to be our biggest Fall Fundraiser ever. And YOU can make it happen.
I’m asking you to invest in changing lives with your $20 a month gift. That’s just $5 a week to speak hope into hearts like Michael’s each day as they walk through difficult times.
Or maybe God has given you the ability to make a leadership gift of $1000 or more. And please consider allowing us to use your gift as a match to inspire others to give as well.
More hope. More lives changed. More new beginnings. They all happen when you give today.
With thankful hearts, Therese Romano, Station Manager, Northern Christian Radio
P.S. Your gift - no matter the size - helps keep the
message of hope flowing to those who need it most.
Thank you for standing with WLJN
and trusting God with us, one surrendered step at a time.
