We’re thrilled and proud to announce that the CD release is on July 15th 2019! It’s been a long and exciting journey, and finally the big day is here. The CD costs 15€ and the profits of the first 1.000 copies will go towards our children’s home project in West-Papua, Indonesia. You can order the CD by contacting us via email: info@awakethenations.org. By purchasing the CD, you’ll support the children’s home project and that way make a difference for many young lives, who otherwise wouldn’t have a chance for a bright and safe future. The children in our home will have a strong Christian upbringing and grow up in a loving and caring environment. We’re cultivating the land right now and will soon start building. Stay tuned for more updates!
BACKGROUND INFORMATION ABOUT THE CD-PROJECT
Those of you who know me better, also know that I’ve played the violin almost all my life and in the last ten years, I’ve played mainly in Christian worship settings – both live in different events as well as on a few CDs. In the past few years, God has led me more and more into prophetic worship and people have come to me again and again, encouraging me to record a CD. About five years ago, I received a confirmation for this as God clearly gave me an idea for a CD. It should be a prophetic instrumental CD dealing with a specific topic, every track being based on one or more bible verses. I sat down and began writing down particular bible verses, which I felt should be on the CD. The blueprint of this CD was soon finished but put on the shelf for several years because I didn’t have green light about the timing of the recording, nor who to do it with. Last year however, I got to know a new friend, a great concert pianist and a wonderful worshipper, who flows in the prophetic, and I immediately knew, she’s the one I should do this CD project with. We discussed it, and both felt, this is from God.
So Sammy and I have now for some time been preparing ourselves for this project, and in February 2019, we will go to a recording studio and realize this dream! We have the incredible privilege to be working with a highly professional producer/sound technician, Marc Ebermann, who will do the recording for us in his amazing studio. I’ve worked with Marc before on a couple of CD projects for Glaubenszentrum, Bad Gandersheim, and appreciate his extraordinary skills and knowledge.
When God first spoke to me about this project, He said, the music we will create spontaneously on the spot in the studio, will be prophetic in its nature and bring with it healing and deliverance, hope and encouragement, build faith and release people from depression and spirit of heaviness into wholeness, restoration, freedom and joy. I firmly believe, God has birthed this idea and He has a purpose and a plan to use it as a mighty weapon and tool in his hand.
The CD will come out in May / June 2019 and will be available for purchase on the Awake the Nations website. The profits we make by selling the first batch of 1.000 CDs, will not go into our own pockets but will be used for building a Christian children’s home in West-Papua, Indonesia. Supporting the CD project so that it gets done, and buying the CD when it becomes available, will benefit the poor Indonesian children and provide them a brighter future.
In order to complete the CD project, we need approximately 4.200€. This includes all the different expenses concerning the project, such as studio rental and recording, mastering, mixing and engineering, photography and graphic work for the CD cover as well as the CD printing. We need still about 1.500€ to complete the project. All those who donate 20€ or more, will receive the CD for free.
We appreciate every donation towards the cost of this project and thank every donor for being part of this and enabling us to do what we believe will bless countless people, have lasting impact on many lives, change destinies of the children in Papua, and give God the glory! You can donate directly on the Awake the Nations bank account using the payment reference: ”CD-PROJECT” or give a cash donation. For information concerning cash donations, please email info@awakethenations.org
May God bless you as you give and make a difference for the Papuan children!
Kaisa and Sammy
WATCH AND LISTEN TO PAPUAN CHILDREN SING!
Here’s a short video clip of West-Papuan children singing a children’s worship song. These kids live in extremely poor living conditions, most of them being either completely orphan or semi orphan. Our vision is to help the children of Papua, who are orphans, neglegted or living on streets. Please help us build a home for 25 children in need! These children will have a strong Christian upbringing, a safe and loving environment where they can grow up and become healthy, steady, faith filled young men and women.
Thank you and may the Lord bless you!
