We believe that evangelism is truly the heart of God. Jesus says in The Great Commission in Matthew 28:19-20, “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” What an incredible command He has given to the church. We have a responsibility before God to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to every nation. This is an incredible assignment and must be done with great diligence and much planning.

The evangelistic ministry at Full Gospel Christian Center has many expressions. First, there is our door to door ministry, where teams go out two by two and visit homes in our surrounding communities. At each home the team attempts to share the gospel in a real and friendly way, as well as blessing the home with a personal gift and an invitation to attend our church services. Our street witnessing ministry teams are released into public places such as parks, shopping centers and popular gathering sites in given towns. There they hand out Christian literature and engage people on a personal level, once again in an effort to show people their need for a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Finally, we also have prayer stations. A prayer station is a booth that can be set up in most public places. These booths have a sign over them which read prayer station and are a great way to draw people who are seeking God. During these times of ministry people can make prayer requests, receive prayer and hopefully, receive salvation.

All of our Evangelistic outreaches have pastoral oversight as well as intercessory prayer coverage. We are constantly thinking of new ways and ideas to improve this ministry and increase our influence in our local community. We believe that we must be able to effectively present the truth of God’s Word, in a way that is culturally relevant to the times in which we live. Most importantly, we believe that this ministry must be launched into the streets, where souls can be won for Christ and His Kingdom can be established.
