Hallmark has announced a new movie for this Spring - All’s Fair in Love & Mahjong, starring Fiona Gubelmann and Paul Campbell, along with actresses Yan-Kay Crystal Lowe, Melissa Peterman, and Tamera Mowry-Housley.

This new movie will premiere in May, along with the already announced film, Kentucky Roses, starring Andrew Walker and Odette Annable.

See more movie details in the press release below for All’s Fair in Love & Mahjong...






Press Release via Hallmark Media:


FIONA GUBELMANN,
PAUL CAMPBELL,
YAN-KAY CRYSTAL LOWE,
MELISSA PETERMAN AND
TAMERA MOWRY-HOUSLEY
STAR IN
ALL’S FAIR IN LOVE & MAHJONG
PREMIERING MAY 9
ON HALLMARK CHANNEL,
STREAMING NEXT DAY
ON HALLMARK+

Featuring a Beautifully-Designed Mahjong Tiles, Mat & Tile Storage Gift Set, from Hallmark and Miss Mahjong, Available for Purchase in May

LOS ANGELES, CA — Hallmark Media announces All’s Fair in Love & Mahjong, a new original movie premiering Saturday, May 9 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT on Hallmark Channel and streaming next day on Hallmark+. Celebrating the power of face-to-face connection and the life lessons learned through play, the movie stars Fiona Gubelmann (The Good Doctor, A Royal Montana Christmas), Paul Campbell (Three Wisest Men, Falling Together), Yan-Kay Crystal Lowe (Signed, Sealed, Delivered, The Wish Swap), Melissa Peterman (Happy’s Place, Haul Out the Halloween) and Tamera Mowry-Housley (Haunted Harmony Mysteries, Sister, Sister).

Ronni (Gubelmann) is a beloved school nurse and devoted mom, who hosts a longstanding mahjong game with her dear friends, Shelley (Lowe), Carly (Mowry-Housley), and Melissa (Peterman). When Ronni becomes an empty nester, her whole world tilts — her daughter leaves for college, her hours are cut, and her ex insists it’s time to sell the home she’s poured her heart into. But a chance moment at a school fundraiser reveals her unexpected gift for teaching mahjong — and sparks a connection with Ben (Campbell), a charming contractor whose family needs a little healing of its own. As Ronni brings community after community together through the game she loves, she discovers that sometimes the hand you are dealt changes everything. With her future in the balance, Ronni must learn to bet on herself… and maybe on love, too.

As mahjong experiences a cultural movement across the country, Hallmark partnered with Miss Mahjong to bring to life a beautifully designed Mahjong Tiles, Mat & Tile Storage Gift Set inspired by Hallmark artistry and archival treasures, including the longest-standing pansy card design. The Miss Heirloom set is designed to bring friends and families together around the table, creating meaningful moments, sparking conversation, and turning everyday play into a lasting tradition. The co-branded set can be seen in the movie and will be available for purchase in early May on Hallmark.com and MissMahjong.com.

All’s Fair in Love & Mahjong is a Muse Entertainment Production. Joel S. Rice and Aren Prupas are executive producers. Allen Lewis is supervising producer and Ronni Rice is consulting producer. Produced by Charles Cooper. Jessica Harmon directed from a script by Betsy Morris and Nina Weinman and story by Morris.

⛵️ New Hallmark Movie -- "Love on Deck" Starring Daniel Lissing and Rhiannon Fish




Hallmark announces a new 2026 rom-com movie starring Rhiannon Fish (Polar Opposites, A Christmas Castle Proposal) and Daniel Lissing (Single on the 25th, Santa Tell Me) with this caption on their socials:

"Ahoy! ⚓️ Love on Deck starring Daniel Lissing and Rhiannon Fish is officially in production in beautiful Queensland, Australia.

Set sail for love when Love on Deck premieres this summer! ⛵️"


This is such fun news, and I have a feeling these two will be great together. I'm sure Daniel loves that they are filming in his home country. (the Australia continent)

As I'm currently writing this, it hasn't been revealed whether Love on Deck will premiere during Hallmark Channel's Passport to Love films in June or Summer Nights in August. I think it suits Passport to Love best as a destination movie, but you never know.

It's also rather fun that Rhiannon *FISH* is starring in a nautical type movie about boats and water.

Stay tuned for more details!
Happy movie-watching,

Hello, dear friends!

Wishing you all a blessed and beautiful Palm Sunday weekend! This season is such a joyful time... preparing for Easter and the beauty of spring. I always love this time of year… watching everything bloom and come alive again. It reflects the most wonderful truth of all... that our Savior, Jesus, is risen! And through Him, we are made new and filled with everlasting life.

Saturday, March 28, 2026:




Storyline via Great American Family: Set against the fast-paced world of high fashion and the enduring charm of small-town life, Blessings in Disguise follows Katie (Robins), a driven New York fashion designer with only three weeks to develop a collection that could launch her brand to national prominence. Under mounting pressure and searching for inspiration, Katie returns to her hometown where she chooses an unexpected venue to unveil her work – her late grandmother’s beloved seamstress shop, Charlotte’s Thread.

As Katie breathes new life into the quiet storefront, she uncovers the remarkable source behind her grandmother’s handmade designs: carefully selected Scriptures, lovingly stitched by hand and hidden inside every garment.

Along the way, Katie reconnects with Luke (Elliott), her first love and now a gifted furniture designer and woodworker whose designs are rooted in craftmanship, patience, and purpose. As their lives intertwine once more, the two discover that inspiration is not found in deadlines or demand – but in the timeless values of home, heritage, and hope.

Wishing you all a joyful and rejuvenating Palm Sunday weekend filled with His Spirit... as our hearts turn toward Easter and the hope it brings! Knowing that Jesus gave His life for us and rose again fills our hearts with such deep joy and hope!

I am so looking forward to seeing the Easter-themed movie Blessings in Disguise. It looks like such a meaningful story about faith and pursuing the dreams God places upon our hearts.

It's also so nice that Crossroad Springs includes a beautiful, heartfelt Easter sermon. So grateful Great American Family blesses us with these faith-filled stories - perfect for viewing with your family this Easter holiday.

Also, it's the second week of the miniseries, The Faithful: Women of the Bible, on Fox.

And it's lovely to see a new royal rom-com movie, A Royal Setting, this weekend with Jen Lilley, who is the absolute sweetest and such a beautiful woman of faith. Jen has an inspiring Christian devotional titled Wake Up Your Faith - see details at Amazon!


Wake Up Your Faith
Jen Lilley

I also must share Danica McKellar's lovely review of Jen Lilley's devotional: "Jen is a treasure. I’ve only just begun reading her devotional, and already it feels like a close friend taking your hand, giving it an encouraging squeeze, and walking with you toward something deeper. Jen writes with vulnerability, sharing her own struggles with honesty and grace. Her commitment to helping the reader feel closer to God is evident, and I’m proud to call her a longtime friend!"

God's blessings to you all
on this Palm Sunday Weekend!

SHINING HIS LIGHT:

Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King...

The next day, the great crowd that had come for the festival heard that Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem.

They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting,
“Hosanna!”
“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”
“Blessed is the king of Israel!”
~ John 12:12&13

🎄Happy 9 Months 'til Christmas!🎄 (Can You Guess From This Picture Which Jen Lilley Christmas Movie I Chose to *Mark the 25th*?)




Happy March 25th, Everyone! It's 9 Months 'til Christmas! (And even closer to the Christmas movie season!)

It’s that special time again… time to “Mark the 25th” with a cozy Christmas movie! There’s just something so fun about pausing on the 25th of each month to enjoy a meaningful holiday film.

If you're planning to join in, I'd love to know which movie you are choosing. It can be a new movie, a classic movie, something you love, or something you've never seen - completely new to you! Whatever strikes your fancy.

My Christmas movie pick is B&B Merry, starring Jen Lilley and Jesse Hutch!



It's such a sweet movie, plus I also thought this was a fitting choice for right now because Jen Lilley’s brand-new romantic comedy, A Royal Setting, is premiering this weekend on the Hallmark Channel... so exciting!

And Jesse Hutch stars in the Crossroad Springs Season 1 Easter-themed Finale this Sunday night on Great American Family. (By the way, you can catch up with the last three new episodes of Crossroad Springs - encoring on Great American Family tonight - Wednesday, March 25th.)

Another Christmas movie I'm also choosing to *Mark the 25th* (a little later!)... is one of the Destined at Christmas movies, since Shae Robins and Casey Elliott are starring in their new Easter movie, Blessings in Disguise, this weekend! Great American Family is airing the second Destined movie Friday night - so I’m looking forward to catching it then!



Please share which Christmas movie you plan to watch today - or sometime this week in comments below.
