Evangelism

OUR MISSION

The Pennsylvania Conference is absolutely committed to helping God’s people in Pennsylvania live out His call to go into their neighborhoods and communities and make disciples of all people–reaching everyone, everywhere. Our primary role is that of training, encouraging and resourcing churches in their evangelistic endeavors. We believe that it is God’s will that every church be actively engaged in the work of evangelism. More churches are embracing this challenge by hosting various reaping events—preaching the three angels’ messages and calling people to Christ.

OUR INITIATIVES

Faith for Family

Another important evangelistic initiative is our Faith for Family program. Pastors and members from across our Conference come together to support area churches as they go door-to-door offering literature and Bible studies, and an invitation to an evangelistic series. Then our pastoral team unite to simultaneously offer evangelistic seminars for two weeks in each church in that area. Bible instructors follow up leads and work with members to build friendships and help those seeking God grow in their understanding of Him and biblical truth.

Reach & Connect

With over 95 percent of Americans accessing the internet, online outreach campaigns will engage people in Bible studies and church events. Social media is the new front¬line of evangelism, based on Christ’s method to mingle with people where they are, sympathize with them, meet their needs, invite them to follow Jesus, and connect them with a local church family in their community.

Pennsylvania Youth Connect (PYC)

Young people learn leadership and evangelism skills through the Pennsylvania Conference’s literature evangelism program, Pennsylvania Youth Challenge. From the end of May through July, high school and college age students go door-to-door in communities across Pennsylvania, sharing literature, offering free Bible studies, and praying with people.
