I watch christian worship hour every other week and take Pastor Skeebles messages through the good book made possible from our lord and savior jesus christ & apply some to life. Also local Aberdeen celebrity singer Hank Bowers really fills the airways with some timely hymns.. #godblessyounow

I have been caring for my Mother for the past three years as she suffers from Parkinson's. She has had to live in care for the past 2 years but I do all I can for her. My brothers and I tell her thank you for raising us up to know the Lord and showed us love and care as we do for her now. My husband and I go camping in our beautiful Wyoming state that we live in. Sense Mom has been sick I have not wanted to go as much and worry when I do. On a camping trip we picked up your worship hour on a PBS channel in our camper. I was never so thankful to find your message and have shared it with Mom. My husband and I are very thankful for Pastor Salem. The way he presents the word is so understandable and clear and beautiful. My husband was raised Catholic and I was raised Lutheran. We have found a church home here but we both work weekends. Our church does not offer week day services. We are so excited to find you and I am able to share the sermons with my Mother. You are truly a blessing. Thank you for being a mouthpiece for the Lord. Bill and Wendy

Even though this picture shows me at age two, I still love the Lord Jesus at 76 years old, I'll never forget the day and time I accepted Jesus as my Savior at age 11. I was able to find Pastor Salem since moving back to SD many years ago and have been able to watch him on my computer since our local station dropped him from television, for some reason! Thank you Pastor Salem for all the work you've done for our Lord Jesus all through your 40 years of "teaching". Someday I'll be joining you in our heavenly home. Yes, I'll be going home where I belong!!! My love to you and all of your staff that continue your work or rather Joy with showing your continued ministry. Jeanette in Sioux Falls, SD

May the Lord continue to bless this ministry as they share the gospel ! Faithful and loving Pastor and Saints all serving together in Christ to build God's Kingdom. Update: Now Pastor Salem is with the Lord and his Beulah! The CWH is still persevering in the co-labor, God bless you all. I remember with fondness that Pastor Salem spoke with me on the phone and gave me godly advice when I was a little lamb. What a wonderful Pastor he was to so many, all over. He was a true under shepherd!

How amazing this man is, always entertaining and inspirational! My best friend and I watch every Sunday and we have both been brought up Catholic. We feel so blessed to have such a Shepard in our lives - Dr. Salem has a way to have us understand the Word of God like we have never before. The way he relays the Bible - you feel as though you are there with every person he speaks of. His sermons are amazing. He grabs your attention and translates stories in a way you have never experienced before! He is old school and yet is so understandable. He can make us cry, and laugh with tears in our eyes at the same time. No-nonsense, yet yielding. He is the absolute best! Not to mention the amazing singers and musicians like Jan, Melissa, Barb and Hank! Everyone involved with the making of the production - God Bless You!

Wonderful Preacher that always preaches God's Holy Word. Even though he has gone home to be with the Lord, there are so many people who to continue listening to the televised preaching to this day. He never diverted from God's holy Word, easy to follow and well worth hearing. Thank you and may God continue to bless this ministry.

I love Pastor Salem's teachings and the uplifting worship music! I know he is in Glory but I listen to his messages everyday! Pastor loved the Lord with all his heart and soul and it comes out in his messages! I am spiritually fed and he speaks to me about everyday life issues that I can overcome in Jesus! God Bless you all at CWH! Love in Christ until He comes!

2001 June, I just found out my husband was cheating on me. By the Grace of God I listened to Pastor Salem, he spoke, I listened and I have watched him for 21 years. He was a breath of fresh air. You saved me when I was at a low point and I continued to listen to God speak thru Pastor Salem. You have all served God well.
