Holiday Blessings my friend,

With Thanksgiving  just a week away and the Christmas season upon us, I
wanted to take this time to wish you and your family a Christmas season full
of peace and joy, and a most spiritually prosperous and blessed 2005.  Your
prayers, your love, and your generous financial support have made Liveprayer
possible for millions of people worldwide throughout this past year.

Over 10,000 people that we know of accepted Christ as their Savior during
2004 bringing the total to over 90,000 since we started 63 months ago!  We
received literally hundreds of thousands of praise reports throughout the
year how God has moved in the lives and circumstances of those that we
prayed for.  None of that would have been possible without friends like you
who were moved by God to pray and help financially.  On behalf of all those
that God ministered to through Liveprayer in 2004, THANK YOU!

God Himself gave us the example of what Christmas is all about when He gave
the world His very best gift in the form of His Son Jesus Christ.  Following
His example, that is what the Christmas season is all about...GIVING TO
OTHERS.  Actually, that is what a life dedicated to God is all
about...GIVING TO OTHERS.

Jesus was born in a humble manger, not a palace even though He was a King.
Jesus lived this life without many material possessions, even though He had
greater riches than anyone who ever lived.  Jesus understood that the
greatest thing we can do in our life is to give to others.  He gave the
ultimate gift when He gave His very life for my sins, your sins, and the
sins of the world.

Let me encourage you today to follow the example of Jesus and give to
others.  Make a special Christmas gift to help Liveprayer today.  Liveprayer
is an instrument that God is using to reach millions of people worldwide
EVERY DAY with the hope and love of Jesus.  Our monthly budget is only
$30,000 each month.  That is only $1,000 a day to reach over 2 million
worldwide daily!!!

As you know we don't accept any advertising, or charge for anything that we
do.  *** This is all made possible because of the love, prayers, and
financial gifts from friends like you.  Please take a moment and ask God
right now what He would have you give to help Liveprayer today, what you can
give to help others.  Remember, the Bible teaches to "give according to your
ability to give."  It is NOT the amount that it is important, but
your obedience to give as God leads you to give.

***With only 13 days left this month, we still need $19,700 to cover all of
our monthly obligations.  Don't expect someone else to do what God is asking
YOU to do.  I need your help today, so give the most generous gift that you
are able to give.

Let God use you today to help meet the balance of this months needs. For
some, that may be a gift of $20, $50, or $100.  For others, it may be a gift
of $250, $500, or $1,000.  Others may be able to, and led to give a gift of
$3,000, $5,000, $10,000, or the entire $19,700.  Again, the amount is not
the important thing.  That is between you and God.  All I ask is that you
pray, and then be obedient to give what God leads you to give.

***Also, we need to find 4 people to help sponsor the TV program for
December.  Each week costs us $10,000.  What better way to honor someone you
love than by sponsoring one week of programs in their honor.  Please pray
about making a special one-time year end gift to Liveprayer to sponsor the
TV program in honor of your loved one.

You can put your gift on your major credit card on a secure server by going
to my website, www.liveprayer.com  under the "Donation" button, you can give
via PayPal using my email address, address@hidden ,or you can mail a
gift to:
Liveprayer
6660 46th Avenue North
St. Petersburg, Florida 33709
*All gifts are 100% deductible, and every gift made by December 31st can be
deducted from your 2004 taxes.

I love you and care about you so much.  I will be praying for you and your
family to have the most wonderful Christmas season ever.  What better way to
celebrate this season than by giving yourself to others.  I pray that you
will find ways to serve others during this Christmas, and during 2005.  Let
God use your life to be a blessing.  Your support of Liveprayer is just one
way that you can give to others.

The greatest thing that we can do with our life, is to give to others.
GIVING is what Christmas is all about.  GIVING is what our life with Christ
is all about.  May you know the joy of giving to others during this most
joyous time of the year!


In His love and service,
Your friend and brother in Christ,
Bill Keller
