Evangelism that really works

because a church had printed it on serviettes wrapped round hot cross buns they were giving away. Individuals can help too – just add it to the automatic signature at the bottom of emails that you send. It’s the easiest evangelism you will ever do. Do you charge churches for using the website address in their outreach? Don’t be daft! And are people really coming to faith? “Lewis” reached the website because he could do for someone after an experience like that – about forgiving and being forgiven. Then he asked if I could find him a local church. It was a pleasure to give him the email address of somewhere nearby. I heard nothing for some time. Now to my utter surprise I‘ve had a message saying that he has invited the Pastor for a cup of tea. Just imagine the courage that has taken! Please pray about that meeting and whatever happens next. Have you got plans for 2013? The next project is a campaign at Easter encouraging people to visit the website or request a free, colourful Gospel of Luke. We are putting 50,000 freepost postcards in cinema foyers. The front shows a lifeaffirming image, and on the back it says: ‘It’s time you found out what Jesus said about life in his own words.’ All people need to do is fill in their details and drop it in a letterbox. Please pray that many will do so.

Actually, you can help us greatly. Please could you send for a handful of postcards and leave them anywhere that people who have never read the story of Jesus will see them. We suggest clubs or parent and toddler groups that meet on church premises, outreach events or weddings. The cards are free. If you can send us a donation of £5 we can print even more. But we don’t want that to put you off, so just contact us in one of the ways below and do what you can. They’re yours!
