When Calls The Heart Is Calling You

for Season 2

We’re thrilled to present our inaugural Hearties eNewsBOOM in celebration of Hallmark Channel’s renewal of When Calls The Heart for a second season! The #Hearties extend our sincerest gratitude to Brian Bird, Michael Landon Jr., and the entire cast and crew for bringing us this groundbreaking family series that inspired our very own Coal Valley community. Congratulations to everyone involved on your tremendous success!

Fueled by our passion for Brian and Michael’s vision of a family entertainment renaissance, the Facebook Hearties are over 14,000 members strong in 8 short weeks. This explosive community growth is both energizing and uncommon in the entertainment world. When Calls The Heart refreshes the television landscape by espousing family values, chasteness, honor, and faith. Revitalizing the Golden Age of Television, When Calls The Heart shares stories rich with morals and lessons to inspire a new generation.

Thank you, Hallmark Channel, for continuing to promote family-friendly programming with this masterpiece and for acknowledging the wants and needs of your Hearties audience. We are confident that When Calls The Heart will continue to call hearts for many years to come.

With Heartfelt Regards,

Marisa Loffredo Corser, Allyson Lapp, Debi Watson-Bailey, Camille Eide, and Susan Michael Cooper (Facebook Page Administrators), and Sheri Lynn DiGiovanna (Webmaster)

Words from Brian Bird

Writer/Producer of When Calls The Heart

On behalf of my partner, Michael Landon Jr., and our fine cast, including Lori Loughlin, Erin Krakow and Daniel Lissing, thank you from the bottom of our Hearties for your loyal support and for being the best fans any television show has ever had.  We could not have achieved a renewal without you, so you should all take heart that you are the reason for the season (2, that is).  Obviously, our heads are spinning with the news and there is now much hard work to be done, but we promise to continue delivering the best episodes we can and we are thrilled to have you as official crew-members on our team.  You are like the 11th Man in an NBA franchise...and we could not do this work without you as our inspiration.  
 
Lots more news in coming days and weeks, but along with our faithful, dedicated Admins, we are going to open up the world of Coal Valley to you personally in ways that you can not imagine with all kinds of contests and connection points.  We are nearly 14,000 strong in 8 short weeks.  What's to stop us from adding to that total now that we have a huge on-ramp of several months before the S2 premiere?  So Hearties take wing.  This is your show and you have joined the army for such a time as this!  God bless you from your fellow crew-members!
