John Maddex writes that a donor has offered a matching gift to Ancient Faith Radio:

We are very grateful to a generous donor who has provided a $10,000 matching gift to Ancient Faith Radio. Between now and the end of the year, all gifts to AFR are matched with funds from this individual donation until we reach the combined total of $20,000!

Ancient Faith Twitter Posted on November 24, 2008

Ancient Faith is now using Twitter. At this time it looks like the tweets are simply notices about new podcast episodes that have been uploaded, and therefore at this time will be useful primarily to people who do not subscribe to their favorite podcasts. It might also be useful to people who do not subscribe to the AFR newsletter, and thus are also unaware of new podcasts that have launched.

Washington Times Article Posted on November 23, 2008

Julia Duin, in her Stairway to Heaven column, recently featured Ancient Faith Radio. There's nothing that would be new to AFR listeners, but it's very nice to see the network receive attention outside Orthodoxy.

Annual Survey Posted on September 26, 2008

Ancient Faith Radio is conducting their annual listener survey:

It’s that time again when we ask our listeners to let us know what they think. Please complete our survey even if you completed it in previous years. Much has changed in a year and we really need your input! Thanks!!

Encouraging Email Posted on June 18, 2008

I received this email from a re/CALL listener in Indonesia:

Hi Jason, I am *************** from Indonesia (South East Asia). I am 19 years old and a new convert to Orthodox Church. I am very glad and rejoice in my faith! I also am really helped by the re/CALL website and its postcasts... It strengthens my faith and understanding about our faith, orthodoxy. Thank you!!

Please remember that your support of re/CALL (through both Ancient Faith Radio and the Antiochian Department of Youth Ministry) makes this sort of outreach possible.

Matching Gift Met Posted on May 22, 2008

John Maddex writes that Ancient Faith Radio has met the goal of $10,000 for their May matching gift program:

At the beginning of May we told you about a generous $10,000 gift which came in just prior to Great Lent. The donating group had asked that these funds be put aside until our listeners joined together to match them dollar for dollar. Well, we are very happy to report that the goal was met in just 3 weeks! Thanks be to God! And a huge thanks to all of you who participated! If you intended to give but did not get a chance to do so, we still need you - especially if you are able to commit to a new monthly donation. Please see our DONATIONS page for more information.

Matching Gift Program Posted on May 01, 2008

Ancient Faith Radio has announced that they have a matching gift program:

As we continue into Spring, we would like to ask for your help. As the result of a generous $10,000 gift which came in just prior to Great Lent, we have a tremendous matching opportunity. The donating group has asked that these funds be put aside until our listeners join together to match them dollar for dollar. Your gift right now will help release these needed funds into our available operating account. We are trying to get this matched by the end of May so please do what you can. Let's work together to reach this $10,000 goal this month! To do your part, please visit our DONATIONS page.
