Notes from the President & CEOGathering around shared experiences.July 20, 1969. With emotions ranging from awe to anxiety, we watched as something almost incomprehensible took place—the Apollo 11 landing on the surface of the moon 203,000 miles from earth, and Neil Armstrong’s first steps onto the lunar surface. I watched, too, and even at that young age, I was fascinated with the power of television to deliver such an experience. That moment—shared by an estimated 500 million people around the world—may have planted the seed for my career in public media.Perhaps now more than ever, I believe in what all of us gain when we connect around inspiring content from PBS and local member stations such as ours. This month, you’ll find a mix of new specials and PBS core programs, including Nature, NOVA, American Masters and Antiques Roadshow featured during our pledge drive Dec. 1-14. PBS is experimenting with fine-tuning this mix, and we’re pleased to bring you new and holiday specials along with the shows you enjoy throughout the year. Among them is NOVA: First Man on the Moon (premieres Dec. 3 at 8 p.m.), offering a first-time

portrait of Neil Armstrong, a private Midwesterner made famous by the Apollo 11 mission.Thank you for your support of the programs and content you love on WTVP and wtvp.org. If you’d like to renew your support or give

Extreme WeatherAre the risks associated with ex-treme weather events threatening our national security? Can climate change contribute to the fall of political regimes and the strength-ening of terrorist groups? Extreme Realities: Severe Weather, Cli-mate Change and Our National Security investigates these critical issues and points to innovations that can help us adapt to the in-creased probability of heat waves, hurricanes, floods and droughts — “the new normal”.

The latest episode in the award-winning Journey to Planet Earth series, Extreme Realities travels from Afghanistan to the Arctic, from Bangladesh to Benin, from Russia to the U.S. to explore the unexpected national security consequences of severe weather and climate change. Produced by Emmy Award-winning filmmakers Marilyn and Hal Weiner and nar-rated by Matt Damon, Extreme Realities premieres Monday, Dec. 15 at 9 p.m.

Local TornadoesFor a look at the aftermath of extreme weather right here in Central Illinois, watch for encores of November 17th: Finding Strength After the Storm. This WTVP original production that premiered on the one-year anniversary of the devastating tor-nadoes that hit Tazewell county, follows recovery efforts, lessons learned and community building from last year’s crisis. The program airs Monday, Dec. 8 at 7 p.m. on WTVP-HD.


Sacred Journeys with Bruce FeilerSacred journeys are as old as religion, yet as new as anyone who takes a step and asks, “What do I believe?” Today, spiritual pilgrim-ages are more popular than ever. Join Bruce Feiler — bestselling author, scholar, adventurer, and explorer extraordinaire — on an unprecedented journey to some of the world’s most meaningful landscapes and rigorous religious pilgrimages – all undertaken in one remarkable year.

Viewers will travel around the globe to walk with Feiler and contemporary sojourners on six journeys to sacred shrines, temples, or other holy sites visited annu-ally by hundreds of millions of pilgrims. This special series, epic in scope, spans continents to open a fascinating window on the human quest as it takes viewers through history and across the world on a faith exploration.

Sacred Journeys with Bruce Feiler is a compelling look at the future of faith. The series airs Tuesdays, Dec. 16, 23 and 30 at 7 & 8 p.m. and pilgrim-ages include Lourdes, Shikoku, Jerusalem, Hajj, Kumbh Mela and Osun-Osogbo.

Christmas DeliveriesWTVP has some special deliveries coming your way on Christmas night, Thursday, Dec. 25!

At 7 p.m., a new Call the Midwife Holiday Special begins with a mature Jennifer

(Vanessa Redgrave) at home in the early 21st century. She reflects on the Christmases of her youth, and how much she missed the Nonnatus community after her departure. Back in 1959, the story follows the nuns and nurses as they prepare for the Sunday School Christmas concert and continue their ministrations to the Poplar population. Big changes are in store. Cynthia is invited to join the order as a postulant, and after malprac-tice is uncovered at the York Lodge, Chummy is offered the permanent position of matron. With the New Year and a new decade approaching, what will 1960 bring?

At 8:30 p.m., WTVP’s own At Issue pauses to reflect on the meaning of the season to various religions.

We’re on our way!So many generous friends have helped us raise more than half of our Endowment Fund goal this year. Thank you for playing a critical role in our ability to be here for generations to come.If you haven’t made a contribution to our Endowment Fund, it’s not too late – and you can help us capture a $10,000 matching gift, pledged by the family of an anonymous donor who started our Endowment Fund 30 years ago this year.

As with every gift to the station, it’s tax-deductible and eligible to be matched by Caterpillar Inc. or other participating “matching gift” companies.

Call us at (309) 495-0525 or email us at [email protected] with any questions.

Please send your Endowment donation to:WTVP, c/o Endowment Fund P.O. Box 1347 Peoria, IL 61654-1347

* WTVP will publish a final list of all Endowment Fund donors in a future guide. Please note if you wish not to be named.

Thanks After the StormIt was a capacity crowd at Five Points Washington for the preview screening of the WTVP original documentary, November 17th: Finding Strength After the Storm. So many friends and neighbors! Such an outpouring of excitement and support! And that was before we even started the show.

WTVP congratulates producers Todd Pilon and H Wayne Wilson on a thoughtful, respectful, inspiring film—the kind of programming only local public televi-sion can provide.

We also thank everyone involved in the production, from the individuals and families who so courageously shared their stories, to the experts and officials who gave perspective, to the residents who so generously shared their videos and photos.

Thank you to Five Points Washington for hosting our screening, and to our sponsors for making our broadcast and events possible.November 17th: Finding Strength After the Storm will encore Sunday, Nov. 30 at 3:30 p.m. and Monday, Dec. 8 at 7 p.m. on WTVP-HD 47.1. Additional airings can be seen on WTVP WORLD Channel 47.2 Tuesday, Dec. 2 at 5:30 p.m. and Saturday, Dec. 13 at 1 p.m.

year-End GiftsThe holidays – that time of year to give thanks and give gifts.It’s a time to hold family, friends and the causes important to you close to your heart. WTVP hopes you will consider making an additional gift to the station before year’s end. Beyond just the tax advantages, you are benefitting from sup-porting a locally-owned institution committed to lifelong learning.

Ever since WTVP’s birth, when passionate public television supporters brought Sesame Street to central Illinois, this station has been a safe haven for children and a window to the world for everyone.

From winning our first Emmy this year to producing a documentary on recovery from last year’s tornados to hosting the only downstate gubernatorial debate, 2014 has been an exciting year. WTVP is still growing and striving to be the best station we can be.

your generous gift before Dec. 31 helps ensure that 2015 is another year of proud accomplishments.

Please send your additional year-end gift to:WTVP, c/o Calendar Year-End Gift P.O. Box 1347 Peoria, IL 61654-1347
