FINAL HOURS 🎄

At 2:00 PM today, Jon is going LIVE with a special guest to draw the winners for Peace Partnership’s Christmas Raffle. It is going to be a fun one, and you will not want to miss it.

If you already bought a ticket, thank you! If you want to double your chances and help us finish strong, grab one more before we close it out.

Your ticket puts you in the running for 15 prizes worth more than $17,000, with 1 in 20 odds, and you do not have to be present to win.

But the best part is what your ticket makes possible right here at home. It helps keep counseling affordable for local families and it helps us continue free in school counseling so students have someone safe to talk to.

If Peace Partnership has ever helped someone you know, or you believe every family should have access to hope and support, would you help us push this over the finish line today?

Tomorrow at 2:00 PM we will go LIVE to draw winners for Peace Partnership’s 6th Annual Christmas Raffle. 🎄💚

Tomorrow, someone is going to win something big…

A safe place to talk.
Hope when life feels heavy.
A counselor who looks them in the eye and says, “You’re not alone.”

That’s what your raffle ticket supports.

Your purchase helps Peace Partnership:
✅ Keep counseling affordable for families who are barely getting by
✅ Continue free in-school counseling so students have someone safe to talk to
✅ Say “yes” to more kids, teens, and families who need help right here at home

A young boy was sitting in our waiting room while his brother was in a counseling session.
Before they left, he quietly tucked this under our Christmas tree:

“Thank you for being here to help people.” 🎄💚

We found it after their appointment… and it reminded us exactly why we do this.

Because most people don’t see what happens inside a counseling office.
They don’t see the courage it takes to walk in.
Or the moment someone finally feels safe enough to breathe again.

But he saw it. He felt it. And he left a thank you.

This is what your support does.
This is the impact you’re making ; one family, one child, one brave step at a time.

We’re just a couple days away from Peace Partnership’s Christmas Raffle drawing, and every ticket is more than a chance to win amazing prizes… it helps us keep counseling affordable for families who can’t afford it and continue providing free counseling in local schools.

🎟️ If you’ve been waiting to buy a ticket, this is your sign.
📲If this moved you, please share this post. It’s a subtle but powerful way to support our mission and help us reach the next family who needs hope..

This is not just a raffle…
It is someone’s first counseling session. 🎄💚

In the last year at Peace Partnership we have sat with:

• Kids who cannot sleep because of anxiety
• Teens who quietly wonder if anyone would notice if they were gone
• Parents who feel like they are failing and have nowhere to turn

When they come to us we get to look them in the eye and say,
You are not alone. We are in this with you.

That moment.
The first counseling session.
The first deep breath of relief.

That is what your Christmas Raffle ticket makes possible.

⏰ We are 6 days away from Peace Partnership’s 6th Annual Christmas Raffle drawing and your ticket purchase helps:

• Keep counseling affordable for families who are barely getting by
• Provide free in school counseling so students have someone safe to talk to
• Say yes to more kids and families who are waiting for help

And you also get a chance to win some really amazing prizes:

🎁 15 prizes
💰 More than $17,000 in total value
🎟 Only 300 tickets total which means strong odds to win
❌ You do not need to be present to win
🚗 Prize delivery options are available

This year’s Christmas Raffle is presented by our friends at J.E. Hefner Company, who believe every family deserves access to hope and healing.

If you have been thinking about grabbing a ticket this is the moment:

• Buy one for a family member
• Share this post with friends and coworkers
• Tag someone who loves giving back

Every ticket is one more child, one more teen, one more parent hearing,

We can help.

Feeling like you've lost perspective on why you're here? Dr. Jon Thompson unpacks Nietzsche’s Parable of the Madman in December's newsletter and reveals how even Nietzsche pointed toward our deep need for God and purpose.

He asked this question, and offered a shocking answer in his essay, "Parable of the Madman." This is one of the most powerful criticisms of the mod...

This past week, we were so grateful to be able to gather with a couple of our community partners to help bring joy to local students this season.

Thank you to Children's Services Fund of Jackson County for welcoming our group into their space, a few or faithful volunteers and to Eastland Giving Circle for coming alongside us to write handwritten Christmas cards for students in our community.

Because of support like this, local kids will open a card this Christmas that reminds them they are seen, valued, and cared for.

We are so thankful for all of our community partnerships and the support that makes moments like this possible.
