The Gospel Comission
  • And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority
    in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go
    therefore and make disciples of all nations,
    baptizing them in the name of the Father and of
    the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them
    to observe all that I have commanded you and lo,
    I am with you always, to the close of the age.
  • Matthew 2818-20

God Calls Women to Evangelism!
  • God has given many women special abilities.
  • Discover your ability and use it for Gods
    service.

  • become a true blessing in your
  • church, home and community.

Putting it to work
  • It is important to understand that women have
    special needs.
  • If you are a leader or someone that likes to do
    evangelism, start by training women in the
    activities and personal testimonies.
  • Get men involved also.
  • Use examples of women in
  • the Bible and how God treated
  • them.

6
  • One of the most important aspects of a successful
    evangelism campaign is a very well structured
    preparation work.
  • Not all Womens Ministries meetings have to be
    evangelistical meetings, but all meetings should
    have this focus.
  • One of the best ways to know
  • what kind of program to plan is
  • to do a research to verify
  • the needs.

Research
  • A research in the community helps raise
    information about the religious interest and
    preference of people in any
  • specific subject.

  • of people in our community.

    the attention of the community is very similar to
    the evangelistical meetings. It requires
    planning, ideas, prayer, meetings and commitment.

11
Getting Names
  • One of the most valuable resources you can have
    for successful evangelism is names.
  • Source of names before the series begins
  • Source the names during the meetings.

12
Advertising
  • Unless people know about your meeting, they will
    not come.
  • Important in the Advertisement
  • Inform people.
  • Who do you want
  • to reach target people.

  • you probably wont
  • reach anyone.

Personal Preparation
