New Email Newsletter Manager
Dear Friends and Supporters, In case you were wondering, we have recently upgraded to using a new system for managing our email newsletters. This system is called FeedBlitz and should be much more reliable than what we were using in the past for sending out our newsletter. It should also give you full control over your subscription preferences so if you need to change your email address or do not wish to receive these emails...Published 2007-12-07
Encouraging Emails This Week
We have received a number of encouraging emails this week, and I thought you might like to read them too. As you read, please pray both for these people, as well as for our team as we respond to them. I've been married 10 years to a man who is withdrawn and extremely introverted. I am involved in ministry, but it somehow does not manifest in our marriage. I want to be a good wife...Published 2007-12-07
October Newsletter
We're trying something new this month. Instead of sending a newsletter directly by email, we have created it as a PDF document which you should be able to view by clicking this link. http://ministry.jamesandcarolanne.com/documents/October-Newsletter_web.pdf Formatting our newsletter in this way allows us to create both web based and print copies which look the same, as well as allowing you to print off your own copy if you wish. We would love to hear your feedback...Published 2007-10-16
July Newsletter
Well, it's been a little while since I wrote a newsletter update, so I thought it was about time I sent out another one. Family Update: Benjamin, Carolanne and I have been doing quite well lately. Ben is growing well and has actually been almost sleeping through the night these days. He usually goes down to bed at about 9 pm, and wakes up between 5:30 and 6 am. He sleeps in his own room...Published 2007-07-16
June Update
Thank you so much for your ongoing prayer for us as we have been going through some very large family changes recently. Most importantly, if you have not yet heard, we have had a little boy. His name is Benjamin Matthew Warkentin and he was born on May 15, 2007 at 7:25 pm weighing 7 pounds 8 ounces. Both baby and mommy are doing well, though we are still adjusting to living with and caring...Published 2007-06-05
April Newsletter (Fixed Pictures)
Dear Friends, Family and Supporters, It has been a busy month, what with preparing to move and getting ready to have a baby. Things have been chaotic at times, but it has been very clear to us so far that we are moving in the direction that God wants us to go. For those of you who may not have heard, we have successfully purchased a very nice little townhouse in Sardis (Chilliwack), and will...Published 2007-04-27
New Year Encouragement - FIXED
** My apologies for the previous messed up email. This one should appear properly. (James) ** The following emails and testimonies were received through the websites over the Christmas holidays. I trust that you will find them as encouraging as we did. Many of them show people in the midst of dealing with the raw issues of life, searching for some form of hope or meaning to it all. Please pray for us as we...Published 2007-01-08
Christmas Greetings
Dear Friends and Supporters, Merry Christmas! We trust that you are well. Life for us this season has been busy and sometimes chaotic, but has also been good. We're celebrating our last Christmas and anniversary as a free (er childless) couple, knowing that next year Lord willing we will have a baby. (we've heard that once you have kids, it's a lot harder to get quality "alone time") In light of this, we are going...Published 2006-12-22
Encouraging Emails This Week
The following are some of the encouraging emails we have received this week from the websites. I thought you might find them to be encouraging as I did. __________________________________________ "I want my life in love with Chirst.

September Newsletter
Dear Praying Friends and Supporters, Many of you know that one of the most important aspects of our ministry here in TruthMedia is followup. It is all well and good to create great websites with fabulous content reaching thousands of people for Christ, but if we don't follow up with those people and help them to understand what it really means to be a disciple of Christ, our work becomes somewhat meaningless. One of the...Published 2006-09-25
Crusade Staff Conference 2006
Wow, this year is just flying by. At the end of this month, Carolanne and I are leaving for the 2006 Campus Crusade Staff Conference. For those who don't know, this is a yearly conference that is held by Crusade where all the CCC staff meet in a common location and have the opportunity to share the stories and vision of the ministries, encouraging one another and hearing how the Lord has been working in...Published 2006-07-11
July News and Updates
Dear Friends and Supporters, The last few months have been an interesting mix of busyness and rest. Things at Crusade have been reasonably busy these days, as we have been making some fairly large transitions from some old systems, to newer ones. One of these is the system we use to manage all of the email that comes in off the websites. We see approximately 5000 emails a month come in from our sites, and...Published 2006-07-06
James and Carolanne's May Update
Dear Friends and Supporters, Thank you very much for your ongoing prayer and support of Carolanne and I in our ministry here at Campus Crusade. Life has been rather interesting lately both at Crusade and also personally. As many of you have probably heard, there is a new movie out called The Da Vinci Code. While Campus Crusade is not endorsing the movie or suggesting that people should be going to watch it, we are...Published 2006-05-18
April GAP Update
Dear Friends and Supporters, Thank you so much for your ongoing prayer and support of us in this ministry. I know that both Carolanne and I really do appreciate all the faithful prayer and support that you have shown to us. You will be encouraged to hear that this March we had over 2000 people who indicated decisions and rededications for Christ. We also estimate that we were able to help over 120 thousand people...Published 2006-04-24
