Hope means that no matter how overwhelming this world gets, no matter how dark things seem, no matter how many times you fall down-if you trust God, he will ALWAYS be there to pick you up. He will NEVER leave you stranded. In these days of so much darkness and evil, it's so easy to lose hope. When I tune in to UCB, God gives me just what I need. God shows me there is light in this dark and lost world.

It is hope that gets me through every day-knowing that God is in control of all things and in his way, his time, he will take this crazy, mixed up world of his, he will put everything and everyone of his children back on their feet. All will be well again. Without Hope, what do we have that is worth keeping.

Kids go to Catholic High School and, you know, first year my daughter entered, she came from a public school into the Catholic system and she was honestly in her case, she would get on the bus and she was bullied every day. Someone who was in grade 10 and it was, it was awful. It was a challenging time. And, you know, I taught my, my son. He's 13 now, Grade 8. You know, last year he had a horrible experience that he kept to himself and he was being bullied. So you know, I I feel for this child and my heart just ugh. And I know, like the radio station is so impactful, if that is pouring into that child, then that's just an amazing thing that God is using in the times in this world when things are just so hard. Pours into that. So if we could up our giving by $10 a month, I just feel that just something we can make work, even though things are hard and I love this radio station. Our--like I said, our kids listen to it. Our teenagers, all teenagers, and they all listen to it and it's, it's impactful and even on our walk last night, me and my one daughter, she she brought the Earpods along and we each put one in our ear. We were listening as we were out on our on our walk last night. Right. And it it's moving in their lives. It moves in our lives. And I just want to keep that going for everybody out there.
