“The voice of one crying out in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord’”

Financial Report For 2002

From its inception in 1995, Christian Ethics Today has been offered to anyone free of charge. The voluntary contributions of readers and supportive institutions have allowed our readership to grow to over 3000 subscribers.

Our heartfelt gratitude to every person who contributed in 2002. Some send $30 (the approximate cost of each issue), others send $50, $100, or more to help us provide the Journal for those who cannot afford to contribute. Whatever you send, we appreciate, for without your gifts we could not continue.

During the past year 454 persons contributed a total of $68,764 toward the ministry of Christian Ethics Today. As noted below, $25,100 of this amount was given in response to the special offer to match these gifts by a supportive donor.

$15,000 Challenge Campaign

Last summer a donor challenged the Board of Directors to raise with major contributions gifts up to a total of $15,000, which this donor would match. On December 31, 2002, a total of $15,100 had been given (plus $10,000 matching) with another $3000 pledged to be given. The supporters below with an * before their name have given in response to this special appeal.
