Dear Seeds Friends & Families,
As we prepare to celebrate our 14th birthday, we are so thankful that the overarching theme of our story is that God’s Word, love and joy has been shared through Seeds!
We just passed 22,000,000 streams and distributed over 500,000 albums of Seeds music and videos in over 100 countries. All of these songs containing God’s Word are being played, streamed, sung in worship and acted out in hand-motions literally to the ends of the earth.
It continues to be an amazing journey. The Lord has provided for Seeds through the sales of our resources, partnering with churches to lead family worship events, and from donations from families and churches that share our mission.
As the way music is consumed has changed, we have had to change. Our Seeds Team has worked hard creating new resources and coming up with new creative ways to share God’s Word. Today we have more than 140 resources to equip the family and the church to go deeper in their relationship with God.
We have settled into a rhythm of fund raising only twice per year: once near our birthday celebration and once at the end of the year. God has used this fundraising to sustain us, provide for us and allow us to continue to give free resources to families, missionaries and churches that can not afford them. God has used our donors (one-time and monthly) to sustain us and move us forward. It has been both humbling and encouraging.
Right now, we are creating more music then ever. In fact, with our new partnerships with Answers In Genesis, David C Cook and Seedbed publishers, we believe more than million kids will hear Seeds scripture songs for the first time over the next 12 months. This is so exciting as we see God expanding our reach.
Our Specific Need
Our primary way of sharing God’s Word is though music and video. While we are excited about our reach expanding, we do have a specific and pressing need that we would like to bring before you. Six years ago we were able to build our own studio in our home church in Twin Falls, Idaho. This where we make and produce all of the Seeds music. This studio has been incredible and helped create quality music at about 50% of the cost that we used pay. We have put money into the studio each year and it has served us well. However, because of rapidly changing technology we have been having issues in the studio and need to make a significant upgrades to our equipment to continue our pace and quality.
Will you join us?
The money needed to fully upgrade the studio to where it needs to be is $15,000. Here are ways you can give:
One Time Gift: The money raised for this campaign will go into the needed studio upgrades. This will help us continue to write and produce incredible songs to God’s Word and share them around the world.
Monthly Gift: God has used our monthly givers to help us share His Word far and wide. Without their support we could not provide free Seeds resources to families, missionaries and churches that cannot afford them.
Grants: We have been blessed by some significant grants in the past and are available to talk with anyone about Seeds resource stewardship and can provide you with documentation necessary.
Thank you in advance for your prayers and support,
Jason Houser
