"My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong." 2 Corinthians 12:9-10

AllWorship.com is a not-for-profit Christian radio station exclusively on the Internet that provides commercial-free worship music in four formats: contemporary worship, praise & worship, Spanish worship, and instrumental worship. Christians in faraway countries, particularly missionaries, who don’t have access to a terrestrial station, can now listen free to Christian worship music and it doesn’t cost them a dime–our ministry picks up the tab for all programming, streaming and music fees. The ministry is completely funded by listeners through donations and has been broadcasting to all corners of the earth since 2004.

Some encouraging emails we received in December from our listeners around the world:

Location: Unknown Comments: It is my privilege and pleasure to be able to support this ministry. I strongly enjoy the music you play and I feel a powerful anointing on it. I live and work as house manager and house mom at a faith based women's transitional home and I play it throughout the home to set a positive atmosphere of worship and praise.

Location: Victoria, Canada Comments: What a God send you truly are for me! Thank you so much. I am a dedicated listener of a radio station here but as of Thanksgiving day they play only Christmas carols. Don't get me wrong, I like Christmas Carols, but it's just too much. I crave my Christian music! I do not have a CD player, only in my car, and even the Christian radio programs on my TV are all playing Christmas carols. So finally, at long last, I decided to Google Christian online music and got you guys. I love, love, love what you are playing! Thank you for truly blessing me and I'm sure many, many others with your great Christian music.
