It is an honor to partner with you on this Good News paper here in the Intermountain areas of Colorado, southern Idaho, eastern Oregon, Utah and Wyoming. In this time of national crisis, we need to have a voice sharing the truth on matters dear to people's hearts.

With the help of GOD and you, we can have the Christian news voice in the following stores: WalMart, Fred Meyers, Albertsons, K-Mart, Winco, Rite-Aid, BlockBusters Video, at the local Edwards Movie Theatres, and many other secular locations.

Intermountain Christian News needs your help in raising funds to pay for the following expenses. Please ask your church to take a special offering this Sunday to help our ministry?

Our immediate need is $ 24,000 and our fundraising goal for fiscal year 2009 is $72,000 to cover production and distribution expenses.

We need 600 people to give just $10 a month, or 300 people giving $20 per month, or 100 people giving $60 per month in order to help in the printing and distribution cost of our monthly newspaper.

To share the gospel of Jesus Christ and to serve (to inform, motivate and equip) Christian churches in the Intermountain area via our newspaper, in print and online.

Informing – sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ and Christian events and resources people can participate in.

Motivating – addressing spiritual growth issues and encouraging people to attend a bible believing church of their choice.

Equipping – Equipping churches by sharing examples of successful outreach church ministries to our community and how their church can replicate this type of ministry.

Scripture exalting JESUS above all of creation:

KJV Philippians 2:5-11
"...........Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

"Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them." Matthew 7:20

While working as a Christian counselor, I saw a need for a local non denominational Christian news source that would serve the Christian community and give them a united voice in reaching the unchurched. In November of 2001, I felt called to develop a Christian resource web site to help connect people to The Gospel message and to a local Christian church which eventually developed into InterMountain Christian News. InterMountain Christian News started out in November 28 of 2001 as a web site ministry under the name of the ‘Christian Resources and Events Directory’ for the purpose of connecting people to Christian resources and events. On June 27 of 2002, the ‘Christian Resources and Events Directory’ was renamed ‘Treasure Valley Christian News’ and was incorporated in Idaho as a non profit 501 c3 printed newspaper. Larry Patrick, our art director, joined me in the summer of 2002 to begin work on our first printed newspaper. August of 2003 was the beginning of our teen outreach newspaper ‘GroovinTeens’ and the web site groovinteens.com which later was transformed into ‘Treasure Valley Teens’ paper and our TreasureValleyTeens.com web site and then as the ‘InterMountainTeens.com’ June of 2008. On June 24 of 2008 our newspaper expanded to all of southern Idaho, eastern Oregon, Utah and Wyoming and was renamed ‘InterMountain Christian News’ and now in January of 2009 has expanded to Colorado.

InterMountain Christian news is distributed in the secular arena online at www.imcnews.org, at airports, tire dealerships, doctor offices, etc.

Inside each printed issue of IMCNews and on our web site, we have a ‘Who Is JESUS’? column where people can learn about who the JESUS of The Holy Bible is and learn how to connect to Him as their personal SAVIOR.

InterMountain Christian News started out in November 28 of 2001 as a web site ministry under the name of the ‘Christian Resources and Events Directory’ for the purpose of connecting people to Christian resources and events.
