Vision That Sticks: Why Weekly Newsletters Matter More Than You Think
Ever feel like you’re doing everything right, sending out texts, making calls, booking meetings but still hitting silence?
You’re not alone.
Most people aren’t ignoring you. They’re just busy.
Life gets loud.
That’s why your newsletter isn’t just a nice touch.
It’s how you stay in their inbox, in their thoughts, and in the story God is writing.
Keep sowing, morning and evening. You don’t know which seed will grow.
Maybe it’s the one you planted today. Or the one you’ll plant next week.
But one thing’s sure: Nothing grows if you stop showing up.
Stay Steady, Keep Sowing
“Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let your hands not be idle, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both will do equally well.” - Ecclesiastes 11:6
This reminds us that faith isn’t passive, it’s active.
When it comes to support raising, don’t wait for the perfect moment or perfect message.
Just keep planting, calls, texts, emails, newsletters.
You don’t know which one God will use to bring breakthrough.
Your job is to stay steady. Let God decide which seed will bear fruit.
Here’s What You Can Do This Week:
1. Send a Weekly Newsletter to All Your Contacts
Even if they’ve said no or haven’t replied. People need regular reminders.
Share stories, updates, and vision. Keep it short and inspiring.
2. Share Testimonies that Show Impact
Ask friends or former students for short videos (30–45 seconds) about how your ministry impacted them.
Send one out each week. That’s 10 weeks of built-in content!
3. Make It Easy for Your Connector Team
Don’t complicate it. Set a rhythm: message your connection team every Monday asking for referrals.
Keep it simple and consistent.
4. Don’t Get Discouraged by Silence
People are busy. Even people with good intentions forget.
Be like the one who follows up anyway. He wasn’t perfect, but he was persistent.
5. Remember: It’s About God’s Vision, Not You
They’re giving to God’s kingdom through your calling.
You’re not begging. You’re boldly inviting others to join His mission.
Encouragement for the Journey
This week, don’t wait around for people to remember you.
Remind them you exist. Share stories. Flood them with vision.

You never know which week will be the breakthrough.
