Lack of Finance May Close
R Music TV


Now we all know what r music tv is about. It's about spreading a positive message to a dark world. It's all about music that is inspirational and uplifting. It's one of the only channels not to offer sex, drugs, swearing and violence to our generation.

With all our LIVE music shows we have attracted different audiences from all over the world. Let's be honest we all have been waiting for a channel like this to hit the UK and now here it is. Something for England to shout about giving opportunities to our young musicians, bands and artists to share their message through the platform we are creating. But all this comes at a cost. A very high one at that!

The costs to keep r music tv going are extortionate. Everyone loves the fact that r music tv is sitting alongside all the other music channels at 370 but even to be on SKY digital it costs £22,000 per month and that's just the satellite time let alone the licences, studio costs and all the rest.

r music tv belongs to the UK and all those who enjoy it and share the vision are part of it and need to help keep r music tv alive. We have recently been made aware that the satellite costs are increasing and we do not have any funds left to keep the channel going and IT WILL BE COMING OFF THE AIR IN OCTOBER. This is an appeal to all those who believe in r music tv to give what you can. This is an appeal that you would also let your churches/friends and family know of our predicament. We know God is doing something with the channel and we are hearing good news of how lives are being effected already. We know His will shall be done and we are asking for your help. If we receive support by the middle of September then we will know the channel is wanted and can be supported to keep going.

To give please send a donation to our registered charity Revelation Foundation or email and request a standing order form and a gift aid form.

Please make any cheques payable to Revelation foundation and send any contributions to:
Keep r music tv on air
117a Cleveland St
London W1T 6PX
Church Visits
Due to the crisis we are facing, and knowing that we have little time till the channel comes of air (unless the church/organisations get behind it through donations/sponsors etc), so we are now planning to visit Churches all around the UK to share the heart/vision/purpose of r music tv and to also present a message on "Media/TV", with the hope that many will know what we are all about and hopefully catch the vision in time and get behind it.

So if you would like us to visit your Church to share this message please email us on info@rmusictv.com, so we can arrange something.

We at r music tv have realised that for this channel to accomplish its purpose we need God and you (the church).

The church is likened to a body in the bible, Christs body. There is one body, but the body has many parts and r music tv is a part of the body. Just like the eyes are used to see, the ears are used to hear and the legs are used to walk r music tv is a part of the body and its being being used to seek and save the lost in a new, fresh and dynamic way that has never been done before.

Please Pray
r music tv is in hot water at the moment, September is the deadline. If a miracle doesn't happen it'll come of air.

So please pray for r music tv and support us in any way you can.

"......and if one member suffers, all members suffer with it; and if one member honored, all the members rejoice with it." - 1 Corinthians 12:26
