Next Week: Evangelism Study Begins

I’m sitting here preparing for an evangelism study, which will begin next week on Tuesday night in Jesús María.

It’s like this.  I was starting to work through an evangelism course on my own – in Spanish.  When I saw the material, I decided to show it to our pastor Ismael.  And – one thing led to another – ! 🙂

Why an evangelism study?  Well, I think every believer can improve in this area.  I also think that there are a lot of “myths” here in Mexico when it comes to evangelism, and the Gospel itself.  I’m sure there are myths in Canada too – we just have different ones here.

Another thing is, when you’re in a church with so many new believers, learning to share your faith is super-important because it helps you understand the Gospel yourself.

Also, the elders of the church are talking about doing a real focus on evangelism at the end of the year.  This study is 8 week – theoretically we could go through it twice before then.

So – I have no idea how this will go or what will happen, but I’m stopping by to ask for your prayers right off the bat!

These studies are not just sit-and-listen, they’re interactive, and they will result in – homework – that is, people will be doing evangelism.  We want to equip people in practical ways.

So, yes, prayer is needed.

And hey, if you’d like to help offset the cost of the materials we’ll be using, let me know!  If you have 10 cents to spare, that will help us get one tract (by the way, these tracts will be used strategically (for example, as a conversation-starter), not dropped by hundreds from an airplane).

I’ll try to let you know how it’s going once we get started.
