HOPE CHANNEL INTERNATIONAL
Bringing HOPE Home!

We've talked about it, you've listened, we've worked, you've waited, we all have prayed and FINALLY this next week ATN brings to an international audience the Hope Channel, the official direct-to-home global television voice of the Adventist Church. To date, with the Lord's blessing, ATN has brought to you 65 satellite evangelism events and many other special event broadcasts. Now, through the amazing providence of the Lord, ATN launches fulltime broadcast with the Hope Channel.

This next week the Hope Channel broadcasts inspiring messages from the TV ministries of It Is Written, Amazing Facts, Voice of Prophecy, and Breath of Life. Faith for Today offers programmes featuring host Pr Dwight Nelson in the Evidence series and also the drama program "Westbrook Hospital". From the media centre in Australia a fascinating documentary style programme, "Keepers of the Flame" showcasing how God's truth has been nurtured down through the ages. Learn about creation and science, enjoy powerful preaching in His Word Alive segments, and finally share some quiet moments of reflection with beautiful scenes from nature and meditative music.

The programme schedule for the first week of December is available on www.adventist.tv Soon the new Hope Channel website will be available. Here you will find much more information about programming for the upcoming holiday season and future brand new programmes coming to you early next year. As you view the Hope Channel, remember you are participating in a brand new ministry "under construction." Over the next weeks the schedule will shift from week to week as many programmes and features are added, so check back every week for the latest schedule and keep tuning in to the Hope Channel!
