Is Fellowship Evangelism?
View the 2016 report July 6, 2017 by Corps Ministries- Filed Under:
- Ministry Resources
The danger for a corps which caters fellowship only to members is that it will become ingrown or self-focused. When a corps fellowship event does not reach out and welcome community members, it's function has been jeopardized. Fellowship that is held in or includes community members is a great way to expose new people to the gospel message lived out in every day life. Whether it's a fun night, a movie night, a community picnic or garage sale, a women's evening a men's building project - the purpose should always be to demonstrate Christian love and acceptance to all, and use the opportunity to disciple and evangelize and invite to future engagement.
During 2016 300,000+ people engaged in fellowship type programs across the territory based on statistics entered in SAMIS by individual ministry units.
