As a new pastor in a small church, in the middle of a huge city, surrounded by over 40 ministries, within a 1 mile radius of the church, I fealt the need to reach out to the community. The objective is to make Jesus Christ and salvation through Him alone known. The process is to take Biblical methods while using today's means. First I believe the Lord Jesus led me to do this Crusade for Him. We have 4900 homes within a 1 mile radius of the church. So we created a Christ honoring, yet well done brochure and are mailing 1 to each home prior to our visits. The goal is to mail to 5000 homes within a 10-11 month period (200 every 10-15 days) and then followup with every home that a brochure was mailed to. The door to door followup is planned within 7-10 days of the occupant receiving the brochure. The brochure has information regarding our Church ministries, a simple Salvation message, and a postage paid response card.
Since our first mailing on Thursday, February 7, 2008 the Lord has enabled us to mail and visit over 780 homes! We have had a lot of positive reponse from the occupants and are sure the Lord will bless with salvation decisions from many.
Please pray for Grove City Baptist Church in Knoxville Tennessee.
