Do you want to hear something awesome?

Alright, here it is: In the past month, a record-smashing 6.2 million pages have been viewed on LifeSiteNews.com by over 4 million unique readers!

Even I’m stunned by those numbers. And in the past year, it’s even more impressive, with over 41 million pages being viewed by 20 million unique visitors!

I know, I know! All the fundraising experts say: don’t bore your supporters with numbers and statistics! They want to hear stories of how your work is making a difference!

But that’s exactly why I find these numbers so exciting.
 
Because behind every single one of those numbers is a story – a story about someone who encountered the truth about life and the family – maybe even for the first time ever! – and whose life was changed in some way, sometimes even dramatically.
 
Like the reader who posted this beautiful message on one of our Facebook pages just yesterday:

Just wanted to say I have always been pro-life and never thought there was anything I could do about it! I was discouraged and felt it was a hopeless cause. The 1st time I read your messages I felt a little spark of hope in my heart that hopefully someday “we could end abortion” after all! So, ever since, I have been sharing several of your stories everyday, Even though I don't know you, I feel so close to you and pray that God will always inspire you on this courageous mission that He chose you for! I'm so proud of you and hope I can help with more then just sharing your messages. God bless you!!

What an encouraging message for all of us!

 
But, by the grace of God, we get e-mails and messages like that all the time
 
In the past we have even heard of lives that have been saved from abortion thanks to our stories. And God only knows how many such instances have happened that we will never learn about!
 
Here’s another “boring” statistic for you: In the past two years, traffic to LifeSiteNews.com has increased by over 250%. And it’s continuing to climb by the day!
 
Even we have been stunned by this meteoric increase in our readership.
 
And yet, at the same time, we realize that we must reach many, many more people at this time of great crisis.
We have no other option!
 
Things are happening so very fast that if we don’t reach more people, now, it could be too late…
 
…too late for religious freedom, too late for the traditional family, too late for the millions of unborn who are being slaughtered, and too late for our children who every day are being exposed to values that could destroy their bodies and their souls.
 
We have big plans in the works to reach many, many millions more people with the message of the Culture of Life in the New Year.
 
I hope you will consider giving your most generous donation today to allow us to make these plans a reality!

For all those new to LifeSiteNews, or those who have not yet made a commitment to supporting this news service, you should know that this incredible growth over the past two years was made possible by only a tiny fraction of 1% of our readers, just like you.
 
Our growth has primarily been fueled by the generous $25, $50, and $100 faithful, grassroots donors dearly wanting to do the most that they can to support the truth.
 
Increasingly, we are also starting to see larger donations which are absolutely essential for us to implement the larger projects that will allow us to reach the huge audiences of people that do not yet even know that LifeSiteNews exists.
 
Imagine what could be possible if more people who read and depended on our news everyday donated today?
 
The sky is the limit – because people want the truth – now, more that at any other time I can recall in my lifetime. 
 
In this cultural climate they are starving for it and ecstatic to find a resource like LifeSiteNews that they can trust every day.
 
As we have stated, this campaign has a minimum necessary goal of $200,000 to reach before December 31st.
 
I know that together we can make it!
 
For life and family,
