"I wanted to let you know my t-shirt arrived on Wednesday. I really do love it! I now know I'm number 3298.

Things are very, very hard in my life right now, and the t-shirt arrived on exactly the right day. I needed something nice.

I hope you and your ministry continue to do well."

Much love in Christ and all my thanks,"

This is how one Canadian sister described winter fun up North...

"Hey Rob!! You want to see fun....you need to come visit during the winter months when we all wear our tuques ....watching the NHL....and playing The Ugly Stick!!!.....Now that's what I call fun......EH!!!......LOL,LOL,LOL."

The Story Of Shirt #2133

"...I was just sitting around a friend's house when I remembered that each shirt has its own special number. When I looked to see what number I had gotten, I could do nothing except yell in happiness and smile! I knew God worked in mysterious ways, but what had just happened was amazing. My number is 2133. When I was a sophomore in high school I had two very close friends die in a car wreck; and both happened to play football and their jersey numbers were #21 and #33. I felt blessed that God would set up such a special moment for me."

1M4JC Featured On Local ABC Affiliate

Cedar Rapids ABC Affiliate, KCRG Channel 9, ran a story about 1 Million for Jesus Christ® on Saturday, Aug. 23 during the 10:00 p.m. newscast.

The feature was originally set to air in late May 2008, but due to major natural disasters affecting eastern Iowa, the story was postponed. Rob and Jim's home church, Antioch Christian Church of Marion, Iowa (www.lifeisforliving.org), was the location for the story.
