Chairman’s Message
As the Apostle Paul closes his letter to the Philippians, he encourages them to “think about such things” that are true, noble, pure, lovely and so forth. Philippians 4:8 NIV.
That’s why I know this annual report will be a blessing to you! Kingdom impact, lives changed, these are wonderful things to discover and remember.
I too am blessed to see all the Lord is doing through your partnership with Quiet Hour Ministries.
Karl Haffner and Bill Tucker head up a growing team of associate speakers. A new international sermon series is in development—a project that will bless hundreds of thousands of people!
Or how about 50,000 people reached for Christ last year! And countless others whose lives were touched by the medical clinics, chapel construction and other community outreach projects you provided.
Jennifer Ramirez-Marrero is a teenager from Texas. She preached an evangelistic series in Panama. Think about it, she brought people to Christ because of you!
Each team member, each person reached in the mission field, is precious in God’s sight. I’m grateful you see it too and have joined with us to win people for the kingdom.
The work before you and me is big. No doubt about it. Because God’s vision is big.
Are we able to fulfill what God is calling us to do? With your help and His blessing, the answer is an emphatic yes!
Thank you for your prayers. Thank for your partnership. Thank you for your gifts.
And may this report fill you with joy and praise to God as you “think about such things!”
Ralph Watts, Jr. Chairman of the Board
President’s Message
There are so many stories I could tell! Stories of God’s love, His amazing grace and miraculous interventions. Stories heard from our dedicated, hardworking staff. Or the volunteer team members who step outside their comfort zone to share Christ.
Then there are the people blessed in the mission field, those who made a lifechanging decision to follow Jesus.
However, I want to make it clear the amazing stories are not because of us. They are because of God. And because of you! We fully recognize and acknowledge that every effort belongs to God. Any outreach accomplished comes from His strength (1 Peter 4:11).
And I thank God for your faithful gifts and partnership. Thank you for dedicating your resources to further God’s work on this earth. You are helping to hasten His return!
It is our first and most fervent prayer that God will lead Quiet Hour Ministries. And that He will send the Holy Spirit to work in our team members, in the people reached around the world—and in your heart as well.
As you review this special report, join me in giving God the praise and glory for each and every new believer. He is at work through you!
Oh and for those amazing stories, read on!

The Global Gospel Impact � Your Gifts
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost … I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” Matthew 28:19-20 KJV.
Because of your gifts, prayers and partnership Quiet Hour Ministries continues to go into all the world preaching the gospel.
In 2014 our evangelism mission teams went to Central and South America, Asia, the Pacific and Africa. More than 1,600 people were baptized!
We also launched a new television series, Missions Today. The 10-episode season 1 is available at missionstoday.tv. Or you can watch on the Hope Channel. This special program is yet another way of spreading the gospel.
Now for the finances.
Your contributions in 2014 totaled $3.6 million. At year-end, both our assets and our liabilities were down about $270,000 from the previous year. Net income shows a loss of $400,000.
However, praise God, we are debt free!
And I can see the God who multiplied the bread and fish continuing to work that very miracle. I know He has blessed the distribution of your gifts for missions.
Looking at our 2014 expenditures of your mission gifts, 51 percent was used for evangelism projects. Another 26 percent was used to build chapels. And 23 percent went to children’s outreach, gospel workers, Bibles and medical supplies.
Because of you, more than 50 projects around the world received mission project funding.
Thank you for your thoughtful, prayerful gifts! I’m so grateful that you partner with God to accomplish His command to teach all nations and baptize them.
May you find joy and peace in His promise, “I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.”
