Blue Team Go!

Praise God! We had our first evangelism night and it started off with a great blessing from the Lord. Although we did not start off by sending people out and praying as will be the regular schedule, we had a large group of people step forward in faith to be a part of this ministry. We had about 15 people show up and volunteer to go out to visit people's homes, spend an hour in prayer for lost souls, or write letters to those who have expressed interest in the church. We spent about 15 minutes in prayer asking God to bless us and forgive us where we have failed. We asked him to give us wisdom in speaking to lost souls, and for love and compassion to be heard in our voices and seen in our eyes. We prayed for courage for the people who are on the front lines and for soft hearts for those who are being visited. I have only been at Emmanuel for a year now, and this is the most excitement for evangelism I have seen at any church.

If you would like to participate (any age, any gift, any spiritual maturity), we meet on Wednesday nights at the conference room across from South Hall.

The visitation crews will meet at 6:30 pm and head out by 6:45 with appointments already set up and people expecting our presence.

The prayer team and letters team will meet at 7:00 pm.

If you want to participate and don't feel you have time, start by asking God to help you be more faithful in evangelism, then just drop off some snacks for the team to begin. We want to encourage everyone to get involved in some way and we will grow in faith together. If you have new ideas for our ministry, post them here or email me, we would love to help you get going.

I pray that we are obedient to the task set before us. Please join us in praising God for the work he is starting here.
