INTRODUCTION

A Word From Dr. Rodney Howard-Browne

This training manual is by no means an end; it is, however, a beginning, a basic guideline, and the tools that will help every
believer win souls.
The Great Awakening Tour was birthed in the summer of 1999 when we went to Madison Square Garden for a six-week
soul-winning crusade that saw 48,459 decisions for Christ.
One of the problems is that soul winning, if it is implemented at all in a church, is left up to the few. The great commission, Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature, is not the great suggestion. Soul winning is
something that is, and should be, the quest of every believer as souls are the only thing that you and I can take with us
when we die.
This is why Jesus came: to seek and save that which is lost. Its time for the church to get back to the basics of the Gospel
and start winning the lost. When I was a boy, my pastor, Pastor Labaschagne, regarding soul winning, would say to use any
bait even if it stinks; we are catching fish. Jesus said to Peter, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. We are all
to be fishers of men, from those in the full time ministry to every believer. The Lord spoke to me and said that its time
to mobilize every believer to bring in the harvest of souls! Jesus is coming soon. This should not be attempted by anyone
until they receive according to Acts 1 verse 8: But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you:
and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the
earth. The power to be witnesses is to preach boldly and proclaim the Good News understanding that the Gospel is the
power of God unto salvation. We are carriers and we are announcers of this Good News Gospel realizing that the goodness of God leads us to repentance.
Our job is not to convict. Our job is to proclaim; the Word of God convicts. If we attempt to do the work of the Holy
Spirit, we will condemn. The love of God flowing from the lips of a Spirit-filled believer will allow the Word of God to
do what it does. Jesus said, And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. He also said that no man
can come to me except the Spirit draw him and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. He stands with arms
wide open. He says, Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon
you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my
burden is light. The Gospel is Good News and must be carried by people who are full of Jesus and the joy of their salvation. People can see if you are real or fake. They can see if you know Jesus personally or have just heard about Him.
These are tools that will help pastors and leaders mobilize their people to win the lost at any cost from the penthouse
to the crack house. We are going to shout it from the mountaintops to the rooftops until the whole world knows how
awesome He is and how wonderful He is.
Soul winning is that which will count one hundred years from this moment; nothing else will. How many people can we
take with us? Eternity is in our hearts. Every second is valuable; every chance must be taken to bring in this harvest. Will
you help? We need laborers. Jesus said, Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? Behold, I say
unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. We must rather pray the Lord
of the harvest that He send forth laborers; you are an answer to the Lord of the harvests prayer.
Thank you for joining us on our global quest for souls. Every tribe and tongue will hear this Good News. Whole cities
and towns and villages will be shaken by the power of God. Nations will be awakened and we will see the greatest harvest of souls and then King Jesus will return.
All these tools are copyright so copy them right. Share them with friends and family. Help them win souls and bring in the
harvest so that they too can have treasure in Heaven. The Soul Winners Crown will be your eternal treasure that you
can cast at Jesus feet.
We will use every method and every means to save souls from an eternity in Hell. Hear the cry of the lost as they wander around in darkness.You are the one who will throw out the lifeline.You are the one carrying the light.Your light is
shining so that those who are in darkness can find their way.

DOCUMENTATION

We encourage you to document everything that is happening by keeping count of decision for Christ, writing down testimonies, and taking pictures. These are all ways to encourage others to go out and reach the harvest. If they see and/or
that someone else can do it, they can to!
JOHN 15:16
Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth
fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he
may give it you

CHAPTER I:
SOUL WINNING

SCRIPTURES TO MEDITATE ON
Out of everything we do the eternal destination of a person is the most important. Gods heart is to see everyone spend
eternity with Him instead of separated from Him. No matter whether a person chooses your church as their church
home we must do our part to give people an opportunity to be saved by preaching the Good News of salvation.
John 20:21
Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.
Mark 16:15-20
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. They shall take up serpents; and if they
drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. So then after the Lord had
spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
Matthew 10:7-8
And as ye go, preach, saying,The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils:
freely ye have received, freely give.
Proverbs 11:30
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
Acts 28:28
Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.
Matthew 28:18-19
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching
them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Romans 10:14-15
How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard?
And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the
feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
II Timothy 1:7
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
John 14:12
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he
do; because I go unto my Father.
Acts 1:8
But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and
in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

POWER EVANGELISM
This Power Evangelism packet was put together to help the body of Christ win the lost at any cost. If you will apply these
techniques and tools, you will obtain fruitful results in your personal life and in your ministry with seeing multitudes call
upon the name of the Lord.
We call this evangelism method Power Evangelism because Acts 1:8 declares: But ye shall receive power, after that the
Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and
unto the uttermost part of the earth.You will notice that the scripture reports that we receive power to be a witness.
Many want the power of God but are not willing to be a witness. When the power fell in Acts chapter 2, 120 people
were endued with this power that Jesus spoke of and Peter preached the Pentecostal sermon. As a result, 3,000 were
added to the Kingdom of God. The purpose of the power is to be a witness.
Ask the Lord to break your heart for the lost. Prayer: Lord, let me see people the way that You see people. Give me a
revelation that You have come to seek and to save that which was lost, and that You leave the ninety-nine sheep to go
after the one lost sheep. The Great Commission is not the Great Suggestion. I thank you Lord that I have the love of God
and the power of God in my life and that I will be an effective witness...in Jesus name. Amen
Soul Winning is not a program but a PASSION. Soul Winning is not an event but a LIFESTYLE. Souls are the currency of ETERNITY.
Romans 1:16, For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth;
to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
Acts 2:21, And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

THE OUTREACH
I. REACHING AN AREA
A. Different Areas
a. RESIDENCES (Bus Route): When inviting people to come to your church on a bus or van, its good to
have a map of the areas you have made as your route.Visit every location on a weekly basis and have a consistent presence there. More information on how to create a Bus Route is included in CHAPTER III: Bus Ministry.
b. RESIDENCES (Non Bus Route): When inviting people in a radius around the church or in areas where
most can drive, depending on how big of an area you are trying to reach, it can be hard to keep track where
you your progress by creating a larger map of the area, and highlighting the areas that have been completed.
c. OTHER: Any area that has a great influx of people is great for soul winning. Always bring brochures or flyers
about your church.
*Add in a back up location nearby the designated soul winning location as so if the team is asked to
leave they have another area to share the Gospel at during the time period to be on the streets

ZIP CODE SOUL-WINNING LETTER

Dear Friend,
I wanted to be a blessing to you so I sent this letter to you because I care about your eternal destiny. Please know that
God loves you and He has a great plan for your life! I have a very important question to ask you. If today were your last
day here, do you know for sure, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that you would go to Heaven? Many times when I ask others this question, their response is that there is no way to know for sure, or that Ive missed the mark too many times.
But the good news is that there is a way to know for sure and it is not through our good deeds. The Bible reads, for all
have sinned and come short of the glory of God. And for the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord. The Bible reads, For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. And
youre a whosoever, right? Of course you are.
Im going to say a quick prayer for you right now. Lord, I pronounce blessings over those reading this letter. Jesus, do a
quick work in their heart and make Yourself real to them. Jesus, comfort them and their loved ones. Fill them with Your
peace that passes all understanding. If they have never personally called upon the name of the Lord Jesus or if in past
times they did, but have turned from You, I pray that they will call upon Your name and surrender all to You right now. If
you would like to receive the gift that God has for you by asking Jesus Christ to come into your heart, say this with your
heart and lips out loud right now.
Dear Lord Jesus, come into my heart. Take out the stony heart and give me a heart of flesh. Forgive me of my sin. Wash
me and cleanse me. Set me free and change me. Make me the person that You called me to be. Jesus, thank You that You
died for me and shed Your blood for me. I believe that God raised You from the dead and I thank You that Youre coming
back again for me. Fill me with the Holy Spirit and the joy of the Lord. Give me a passion to reach the lost, a hunger for
the things of God, and a holy boldness to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Im saved. Im born-again. Im forgiven and
Im on my way to Heaven because I have Jesus in my heart. Thank You Jesus.
When you asked Jesus to come into your heart and to forgive you, He heard you and did so. All of your sins are now
forgiven. Always remember to run to God and NOT from Him because He loves you and has a great plan for your life.
Thats VERY good news.
With blessings,
Pastor _____________________ (include church details and church invite)

SOUL-WINNING PHONE SCRIPT

SCRIPT. If they say Yes, say Thats great, why would you say Yes? (If they respond with anything but Because I have Jesus
in my heart PROCEED WITH SCRIPT) [Do not argue; stick to the script; be brief.]
Let me quickly share with you what the Holy Bible reads. It reads for all have sinned and come short of the glory of
God. And for the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. The Bible also
reads, whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. And youre a whosoever right? Of course you
arewe all are.
Im going to say a quick prayer for you. Lord, bless NAME and his/her family with long and healthy lives. Do a quick
work is his/her heart. Make Yourself so real to him/her and if NAME has not received Jesus Christ as his/her Lord and
Savior, I pray that he/she will do so now.
NAME, if you would like to receive the gift that God has for you today, say this after me with your heart and lips out
loud.
Say, Dear Lord Jesus, come into my heart; be my Lord and Savior. Forgive me of all my sin. Set me free. Jesus, thank You
that You died for me. I believe that You are risen from the dead and that You are coming back again for me. Fill me with
the Holy Spirit. Give me a passion for the lost, a hunger for the things of God and a holy boldness to preach the Gospel
of Jesus Christ. Im saved; Im born-again; Im forgiven and Im on my way to Heaven because I have Jesus in my heart.

Power Evangelism Training Class Outline

The next pages go over in detail the important elements of training individuals on how to effectively share the Gospel on the streets and/or nursing homes.

Preliminaries: Lay aside different methods, preconceived ideas. Jump in all the way. Were here to help you catch
fish fishers of men.
Liability Form. Clipboard-Sign In
Pray. Pray for fear to go, boldness to come, and for everyone to have a greater passion for the lost. Jesus came to
seek and to save that which was lost. Now, that is our mission.
CLASS:
Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him,Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot
see the kingdom of God.
There is a heaven to gain and a hell to shun. Its a real deal; its not a fairy tale. People must be born-again. We
must preach the Gospel of Christ to them.
Rom. 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one
that believeth
The Gospel of Christ goes straight to the heart of a man, woman, or child.
Romans 2:4 tells us that it is the goodness of God leads people to repentance.
2 Tim 1:7 For God hath not given us a spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
Do not allow fear to stop you. Fear paralyzes. Faith mobilizes. We must be mobilized and share Christ with this
world. We must preach it to everyone and leave out no one.
2 Peter 3:9not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
MAKE SURE EVERYONE HAS AN INDIVIDUAL STAT CARD AND A GOSPEL SCRIPT

Individual Stat CardSET A SOUL GOAL Psalm 2:8 Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine
inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
The more people that you share the Gospel of Christ with, the more people you will see invite Christ into their
hearts. If you are asking the Lord for 10 decisions for Christ today, you, at least, need to share the Gospel with 10
people.
Gospel Soul-Winning Script: A tool that God gave this ministry. ---ROLE PLAYTrainer leads someone to the
Lord and has everyone follow along with their Gospel Scripture Card. (Most popular answers:Yes, I would go to
HeavenBecause I am a good person. PROCEED WITH GOSPEL SCRIPT.) What do you say if they say that they
are an atheist, Buddhist, Mormon? Continue with the Gospel script.
How to collect follow up info: use the Keep Me On Your Prayer List Card (commitment card). Invite them to
church.
RECOMMITMENTS --- what to say if they say that they are a Christian. (ON A SCALE 1 TO 5, 5 being red hot
on fire for God, where would you say your walk with the Lord is today a 5, 4, 3? (If they are not a 5, have them
recommit their all to the Lord.) Today is the perfect day to recommit.
Have everyone read the Gospel Soul Winning Script to the person that they are sitting next to. Everyone must
read it out loud in class.
Pray before dismissing everyone to go to the streets. Pray for boldness, protection, and favor. Expect great things
because Jesus is being lifted up.

RETIREMENT HOMES:
SHAKE EM & WAKE EM (They are not sleeping because they are tired; they are sleeping because they do not
have anything else going on.)
Share the Nursing Home Gospel Script with every resident and then staff members. Trust God for instant healings and miracles.
If the resident cannot speak, ask them to NOD THEIR HEAD, BLINK THEIR EYES, or SQUEEZE YOUR HAND
to indicate that they want to receive Christ.

At a later time, check with the Activities Director to see if you can start a Bible study group for follow up.

FEW TIPS
Please, hide fancy/nice jewelry. Do not lay hands on childrenBUT DO LAY HANDS ON THE SICK. Do not go inside
houses. Please, put personal belongings inside your trunk before leaving the facilities.
Did you set your SOUL GOAL?
Did you set your CHURCH COMMITMENT GOAL?
Go two by two
ASSIGN PEOPLE IN CLASS TO THE TEAM LEADERS AND GO YE
APPROACH AT DOOR: Knock---happy knock.
Take a couple of steps back so they do not feel crowded.
Hi there. Im from ________Church. Just wanted to let you know that were right down the street(hand them
flyer). And we are seeing if you or your family members have any prayer requests. (Listen) OK
Read the Gospel Script. Expect the power of God to touch them & for them to invite Christ into their hearts.
BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
After they invite Christ into them. Say: Jesus is also the baptizer of the Holy Spirit and He wants every believer
to be filled with the Holy Spirit. He will give you a heavenly prayer language to pray the perfect will of God---and
give you power to live right, think right, pray right, and do right. Now is a good time to ask Jesus to fill you with
the mighty Holy Spirit. Have them say: Jesus,You are my Savior and You are the baptizer of the Holy Spirit and
Fire. I want all that You have for me. Im asking You to baptize me with the Holy Spirit and Fire right now with the
evidence of speaking in other tongues. In Jesus name
Next, the soul winner says: Let that heavenly language flow from you right now---start speaking forth those syllables. It comes from your belly, not from your head. Be filled with the Holy Spirit and Fire now, in Jesus mighty
name. Amen.
RECEIVE THEIR HEALING / MIRACLE
Pray regarding their prayer request. (If regarding an ailment/sickness/pain: EXAMPLE: My knee bothers me. ASK:
Does it hurt right now? // Jesus saves and He also heals people // I AM A BELIEVER AND JESUS IS THE
HEALER. ARE YOU READY FOR HIM TO HEAL YOU? // Have them say: Jesus,You are my Savior and You are my
Healer. Im asking You to heal me from ______ and from all sickness and diseases. By Your stripes I am healed.
Next: Lay hands on them; command every sickness, ailment, pain to go in Jesus name. EXPECT SOMETHING TO
HAPPEN WHEN YOU LAY HANDS ON SOMEONE---FAITH ACTIVATED).// Ask them to move their leg now
Ask them to do something that they couldnt do before. Wheres the pain now?Praise the Lord.
Please, capture their follow up details & issue follow-up material.
Refer back to your home church / times, easy to get to location---Get a Church Commitment. WATER BAPTISM---DATE & TIME service (Points of interests: nursery, childrens church, youth, young adults, Bible school).
(Ill give you a phone call Saturday night to remind you to set your alarm clock)
MARK YOUR INDIVIDUAL STAT CARD. (REMEMBER: THE MORE PEOPLE THAT YOU
SPEAK WITH, THE MORE PEOPLE WILL SAY YES TO JESUS AND EXPERIENCE THE
POWER OF GOD AS YOU PREACH THE GOSPEL AND LAY HANDS ON THE SICK
HAVE FUN, GO FOR IT, & FOLLOW THE HOLY GHOST.)
NOTE: Pastors & leaders, we encourage you to have soul winning testimonies in your
church every Sunday to mobilize everyone to be a witness. Always, mention Soul Winning
times. Remember, to log your decisions for Christ on www.revival.com and click POST
STATS. Please, register your church as a Soul Saving Station also on revival.com

VI. STAT CARDS

The Individual Stat Card is a great way to keep track of how many souls are won within your church. It gives the Soul
Winner a way to keep track of how many they led to the Lord and then they can report to the leader and to the church
giving the church an idea how many souls the church is reaching. Following, is the info that can be kept track individually
on each stat card.
A. SOUL GOAL: You aim at nothing, youll hit nothing. The soul goal is important. We encourage everyone to put
down whatever number God put in your spirit, no matter how big. If God gave you the number, Hell help you
meet it.
B. CHURCH COMMITMENT GOAL: This is how many you are believing to have a commitment to come to your
church.
C. SPOKEN TO: This keeps track of how many people you spoke to. If your soul goal is 15, then you must at least talk
to 15 people. This helps your team leader know how the soul winner is doing. If the soul goal is 15, and the team
leader sees the soul winner has only won one person to the Lord. When the team leader looks at the Spoken To
and sees that they only have spoken to 3 people the team leader knows the person just needs help speaking to
more people. If they have spoken to 20 people, then the leader can find out if they are following the script, and/or
where they keep stumbling.
D. SAID YES TO CHRIST: How many have said the salvation prayer with you.
E. SAID NO TO CHRIST: How many reject the Gospel or do not say the salvation prayer with you.
F. CHURCH COMMITMENT: How many said Yes to come to your church.

21

VII. GOSPEL SOULWINNING SCRIPT

A. First Question, this is a great question presenting the love of God.
B. Second Question, if they answer with Yes,
you ask why they would say yes. If they say
they are a Christian, read the Bible, go to
church, pray every night, Muslim, Buddhist,
Jehovah Witness, etc. then proceed with the
script!!! (Take note this is the last question
you ask.)
C. Present the Gospel to them. Remember,
The power is in the Gospel.You are putting
the pressure on Gods Word to touch their
hearts.
D. The next line is NOT Can I pray for you?
If you ask, the chances are more likely theyll
say no. Boldly say Im going to pray a quick
prayer for you. The prayer is basically asking
God to do a work and open hearts for salvation.
E. This is not another question. If they are not
sure they will pray the prayer with you.
F. After they pray with you read this part. It
encourages them that God really does love
them and has a wonderful plan for their life.

22

VIII.

KEEP ME ON YOUR PRAYER LIST

A. After you have led the individual to the Lord, say something like, I would like to keep you and your family on my
prayer list. Whats your name and number?
B. Write down their information so you can follow up with them. (River Commitment is Church Commitment. If
they commit to come to one of the services at your church.)
C. Below is an example of our follow up card.

IX. FLYER
A. With the flyer, you are letting them about your church and what is now happening every Sunday.You are letting
them know there is a great opportunity for them to come and be a part of your church. If you are telling people
about the buses, you use your bus flyer. If you are reaching an area where most can drive that is not a part of your
bus route, have a flyer or some brochure ready that has your church information. (Address, Service Times, Phone
Number, Office Hours, Etc.)
B. When sharing the flyer with someone, talk about everything on the flyer: the time, location, food boxes (optional),
contacts for info, etc.
C. Another tool to advertise for your church is a business card. We have included on the CD an example of our River
Ticket that is business card size. It gives information about the church as well as a map on the back.

23

X. FOLLOW UP
One tool we use in follow up after we lead someone to the Lord is our Follow Up VCD. It is a mini DVD that teaches
the basics on what it means to be a Christian, baptized in the Holy Ghost, Tithing, etc.
TO FOLLOW-UP:
A. Collect all the Keep Me On Your Prayer Lists or have people keep their cards to follow up.
B. Call everyone on the list and call to say hello, ask if they have any prayer requests, pray for them, and ask if
they have any questions about the church. Treat them like family, and dont be scripted if you use a script.
FOLLOW-UP CALL SCRIPT
Hello, may I speak with (Name on Commitment Card)? This is your name with The River at Tampa Bay
Church (your church). How are you doing today?

(Name), it was very nice speaking with you. And once again (name), my name is __________.
Please ask for me on Sunday God bless you and thank you again.

24

XI. OTHER TOOLS

SURVEY - This tool is the Gospel Soul Winning Script in a survey form. The script is great if you want to set up a stand at
a large event.You can do a prize giveaway and have people fill out the survey in order to win the prize. After a person fills
out a survey have someone checking whether the individual checked Yes, No, or nothing at all on whether they said the
prayer. If they circled No or nothing at all use the Gospel Soul Winning Script and give them another opportunity to get
saved.
TESTIMONY CARD - This is a tool used to give people a chance to write down their testimonies about what happened
as a result of preaching the Gospel. Through a persons testimony others are encouraged to preach the Gospel. The testimonies can be read during the service, or have the people themselves tell the testimonies themselves during the service,
post them on the church or ministry website, and/or put them in a newsletter.
*These tools are included with the CD.

25

SCHOOLS
Reaching the College aged generation is of immense importance. Many students starting in college have left their parents
home for the first time in their lives. They leave everything behind to start a life on their own away from the control,
rules and restrictions of their parents. Many times this results in a party lifestyle that completely destroys these young
lives. The enemy to put them in bondage and to take away their innocence and purity uses the sense of freedom that they
feel. In their search for something real the church has failed to demonstrate the real Jesus to them and therefore the go
in the other direction to a real world.
Moreover, in this phase of their lives they make decisions that will for a great part determine the course of their future;
what subject to major in, what girl/boy to marry, what career to choose, what city or state to live in etc. If we miss them
in this phase where they lay a foundation for their lives, many times we will not be able to get a chance to share the
gospel with them until much later in their lives. It is such a crucial generation to reach. These young people are the face
of future America. We must reach them with the good news, we must bring them into the Kingdom of God, and we must
give them something real...a real relationship with Jesus Christ. If we reach these young people we reach the future of
this nation.
In going to the School Campuses we have found several tools of evangelism that work very well and that will help you
reach many people.

26

I. HIGH SCHOOLS
SOUL WINNING AT A HIGH SCHOOL:

No laying hands on students. The teachers will ask you to leave.

Keep soul-winning materials hidden and not out in the open because the school may call it soliciting.

Split up two by twos. Dont send entire team to the same part of the school.

Ask if you can conduct a prayer during general assembly. Pray for the students safety and go straight into the
Gospel Soul Winning Script.

On career day, you can share what you do for a living and then go into the Gospel Soul Winning Script.

Identify what time the school bell rings to dismiss high schools---have teams at nearby locations to share the
Gospel.

Praying for teams is a great way to reach the school. Ask the coach if it is ok to pray for the team saying something like
My name is _______ with ___________(Church/Ministry/Youth Group) and I saw that your team
was practicing. I would like to pray for protection and favor for their next game.
If the coach agrees to let you pray for the team do a simple prayer praying for their safety and favor.
Then lead into the Gospel Soul Winning Script by sharing the scriptures on the script. Tell them that if
there is anyone not sure they are going to heaven to say the prayer with you.

BIBLE STUDIES

If someone who is not a student would like to do a Bible study in the school they would need a student within
the school who wants to do it as well. (Public Schools must be student led.) A student can lead one without the
help of an outside person.

Get from student a time and day to do it Bible Study. Its best to keep it on the same day and same time. Come
up with a name for the group. This is all information you would want to put on a simple flyer (Half page or Quarter page).

Student needs to get permission from teacher to hand out flyers in the classroom. Outside of class is allowed.

Draw people in to your first event to get the word out about the Bible Study that will be held weekly.You can
do this by having a guest speaker as well as food and drinks. (Donuts and orange juice for example.) (You would
want the guest speaker/food/drink info on your flyer.) You can have food and drinks once a month or for the
holidays. Same for guest speaker.

Use wisdom in leading Bible Studies. Dont lay hands on students. Preach simple messages on the Word. Build
relationships. Keep open for discussion if the students have questions pertaining to what the speaker is sharing.
(Keeps Bible Study student led.)

27

STUDENT SOUL WINNING

We encourage students in our church who attend a school to use the Gospel Soul Winning Script by sharing the
Gospel with their classmates.

Train them how to use the script.

YOUTH GROUP

You can advertise your youth group in the Bible Studies as well as have those who soul win among the youth pass
out flyers advertising your youth group. Below is an example of a youth group flyer.
You can also start a bus ministry for the students giving kids a ride to church
If you have a Youth group at your church you can start picking people up before the service and driving
them home afterwards.
You would have to flyer and spread the word about it and be very consistent when it comes to picking
them up.

28

II. COLLEGES

SOUL WINNING

Firstly, we use the Gospel Soul Winning Script at home Football games. Before a game starts, crowds of people
gather together to tailgate. They have a lot of time on their hands and they are comfortably seated, and therefore an easy target for a soul winner. By reading the Script to these groups of tailgaters you can win hundreds of
people to the Lord in just a matter of hours.

Get the campus map and identify the busiest locations. Where are the fraternity and sorority housing? Where do
they meet? Identify nearest coffee shops. (The Gospel survey works well at colleges.)

OUTREACHES

Another way to reach the College Campuses with the good news of the gospel is to do a community outreach.
The key is to find a community/apartment complex that hosts mainly College Students. If you have a
contact within that apartment complex, have them ask for permission with the management of the facility.
Once approved, you can start spreading flyers around the apartment complex and on campus, inviting
people to the event.
On this flyer you dont specify what the event is about; you simply invite them to a party with free
drinks and maybe a give-away depending on your budget. Giving food or items away always draws a
crowd among college students.
The most important day to flyer is the actual day of the event; you will get the most response from
these flyers.
On the day of the event you set up chairs, a sound system with music playing and get the food and
drinks ready.
Once the students arrive, you simply preach the gospel to them (you do not want to preach longer
than 15 minutes); you do an altar call and pray the prayer of salvation with them. Someone can also pray
for the baptism of the Holy Spirit with them.
Once finished, you can release everyone to eat and do the give-away as well.
You want to wait with these until the end to keep the crowd waiting for what they came for so you
have the opportunity to preach the gospel to them before they leave.
This is also a great opportunity to announce a college group Bible Study.

Finally, you can also start a bus ministry for the students.
If you have a College group at your church you can start picking people up before the service and driving them home afterwards.
You would have to flyer and spread the word about it and be very consistent when it comes to picking
them up.

NURSING HOMES
Nursing Homes are like a Truck stop to eternity. There are many there that are neglected by their family members and
many who may already have eternity on their mind. It is so important to catch as many within these facilities and share
the Gospel with them before they breathe their last breath.
On the CD included is a Gospel Nursing Home Script. The script changes some of the wording to better speak to the
residents inside a Nursing Home facility.

I. ACCESSING LOCAL NURSING HOMES IN THE USA

1. Go to www.google.com
2. Type in nursing homes
3. Click on the website Medicare.gov- Nursing Homes Compare- Geography Questions
4. You may search by city, zip code, state, and county or facility name. Click on appropriate icon.
Example: click on city
Click on the down arrow to select state
Click on down arrow to select distance desired
Click on next step
5. A list of the nursing homes, phone numbers and number of patient beds will be generated.

II. PHONE SCRIPT FOR BOOKING NURSING HOMES

(Ask to speak to the activities director)

Hello, my name is ________ and I am calling from _________ church. The reason I am calling you today is
that God has put the elderly on my heart and I would like to come into your facility and offer prayer to your
residents. Our teams are well trained in terms of HIPPA laws (not taking names or private information). They are
polite and not pushy. They wear name tags, knock at the doors to the residents rooms, and will check in at each
nursing station.

Normally they are very grateful that we have a desire to come into the nursing homes and spend time with their
patients.

If they say yes, we can get a group together for you, I reply: If it is alright with you, I prefer to go room to room
and pray for the patients. This is because I know that many of the patients who really need prayer are not often
able to attend group settings due to their physical limitations. (This usually opens the door for room-to-room
visits with the patients.)

I schedule the visits at 10 AM, 1 PM, 2:30 PM, and 4 PM. These times seem to work well for the nursing homes
daily schedules.

It is important for the teams to stop at each individual nursing station in the nursing homes and let them know
that they are there offering prayer to the patients. It is also important that they wear name tags.
30

III. KEY POINTS

Remember to use the Nursing Home Gospel Script.

Introduce you at the nurses stations.

Remember to not take down any names in the nursing home. Taking down names would be in violation of the
HIPPA Law.

Wear your nametags. This will make the staff and patients more comfortable.

Knock loudly at the doors, as many patients are hard of hearing.

Go into the nursing homes with the intention of praying for everyone and leading everyone to the Lord.

Witnessing to the staff is at the team leaders discretion. Encouraged to do after all the residents are prayed for.

It is important to not spend too much time with any individual patient. There are many patients in each nursing
home. Our goal is to give everyone the opportunity to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

Confused patients may only be able to do the condensed version of the salvation prayer.

It is important to not be intimidated by contracted patients confined to their beds. Many are lying in bed just
waiting for the opportunity to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

Please be sure to get testimony cards and stat cards filled out from all of your team members before they leave.

Pray for the sick and EXPECT MIRACLES TO HAPPEN!

IV. FOLLOW-UP POINTS

Follow-up in the nursing homes is important. Some of the ways we do this are:
Setting up Bible studies for the patients.
Conducting church services and visitations weekly/bi-weekly in the facilities.
Going through the Nursing Home Gospel Script and offering salvation to new patients who have been
admitted into the facilities.

31

PRISON MINISTRY
Matt. 25:36b ... I was in prison, and you visited me.
We are being obedient to the Word by going into prisons. If Christians will not go, then cults will go into the prisons to
deceive people. We must go into all the world and preach the Gospel--prisons included. Go to win souls, preach the gospel, pray for the sick, get people filled with the Holy Ghost, and see the inmates raised up as laborers. We are bringing
the Gospel Soul Winning Script inside the prisons to reach the inmates and to teach them how to use it to reach others.
Hebrews 13:3 NLT: Remember those in prison, as if you were there yourself...
We have seen hundreds saved in prison through healing and miracle events inside eight facilities throughout central
Florida. It is so important to reach out to those inside these facilities.

I. HOW TO GET INSIDE A PRISON

1. First, call all the prisons/jails within a 50-mile radius of your church and ask to speak to the chaplain.
2. Ask when the next prison/jail volunteer training will be. Each facility oftentimes will require you to go to a separate training.
3. Once you go to the training with a group of interested members of your church, each individual will receive a
personal identification number. This number will allow you to enter a facility.
4. In the state of Florida, an individual can enter any state prison with the chaplains permission once they have a
pin. Think of the chaplain as the pastor over that prison. If you wanted to go preach at a church, you would have
to sit down and talk with the pastor. In the same way, to get inside a prison, you have to talk to the chaplain. Let
the chaplain know what you would like to do.
5. It is very important to have a good relationship with the chaplain. Often, if you know someone who knows the
chaplain or warden it can help. Ask the chaplain if you can set up an outdoor event or a chapel service.
6. The outdoor event takes place out in the yard where everyone is. It would be beneficial to have an anointed
worship leader with you to help get everyones attention and to draw them in during praise and worship.
7. Ask permission to pray for the inmates in the yard and the inmates in the dorms.
8. The chapel service is simply a church service.
9. Ask the chaplain to post a flier announcing to the inmates the date and time of your chapel service.

34

OPERATION ANDREW
We have found that the most effective way to grow the local church is through relationship
evangelism. We can see through the Word of God that this was a pattern that Jesus disciples used when they first had an
encounter with Jesus and since it worked for them it will definitely work for us.
John 1:40-45 Amp
One of the two who heard what John said and followed Jesus was Andrew, Simon Peters brother. He first sought out and found his
own brother Simon and said to him,We have found (discovered) the Messiah! -- which translated is the Christ (the Anointed One).
Andrew then led (brought) Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said,You are Simon son of John.You shall be called Cephas-which translated is Peter [Stone].The next day Jesus desired and decided to go into Galilee; and He found Philip and said to him,
Join Me as My attendant and follow Me. Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the same city as Andrew and Peter. Philip sought and
found Nathanael and told him, We have found (discovered) the One Moses in the Law and also the Prophets wrote about--Jesus
from Nazareth, the [legal] son of Joseph!
*This tool is available on the CD included.

35

I. HOW IT WORKS
1. Hand out Operation Andrew cards on Sunday
morning and refer to above scriptures. Then,
have the congregation fill in, at least, seven or
more names of un-saved or backslidden friends
and/or relatives in your area.
2. In each service, have the congregation hold
up their filled out Operation Andrew cards and
pray for those on their lists for salvation and that
all would come into the Kingdom of God. Then,
pray for the Lord to give them favor as they
approach them and invite them to Friendship
Sunday.
3. Set a date that you will have Friendship
Sunday and have everyone in the congregation
use their faith for, at least, one unsaved person
or family member to be with them on Friendship
Sunday. Friendship Sunday Keys: Use the
slogan - Everyone Bring One! Preach an
Evangelistic message, testimonies, altar call,
snacks after service with fellowship with Pastor,
staff, and church members.
4. Follow Up - Each person that brought a first
time visitor then follows up on them. Example:
If the first time visitor does not come the following
Sunday, then the person that brought them calls
them and prays with them and disciples them.
5. Teach new people that they immediately need
to bring other new people to the next service.
Whatever you try to maintain will go backwards.
You must build with the key people that will
evangelize and with the new people that are excited about their newfound love for Jesus.

36

DATA TRACKING
The data you can record in regards to soul winning is the amount of souls/rededications, harvesters (People who went
out on the streets), and Church Commitments (How many committed to come to church). We have a data tracking file
that is in the excel program that keeps record of all the data turned in to our church for each year. On the CD we have
included with the manual we have a blank soul winning tracking excel file.
In our lobby we keep a box that has a hole where people can drop in their stats from winning souls on their own time
and did not come out on the streets with assigned teams. The box is a great way to keep track of souls being won by
your church. It is important to encourage everyone to win souls throughout the week.
During the services when you announce your outreaches scheduled also announce how many got saved each week and
total for the year. This shows the difference being in the community because of what the church through the outreaches.
Doing testimonies during the service is another great way to encourage everyone in the church that they too can reach
the lost and make an impact for the Kingdom by seeing someone else who is.

37

THE LOCAL CHURCH IN POLITICS

The Bible has much to say about the Churchs involvement in the political affairs of our nation. It is the responsibility of
the Church to support local, state, and national leaders who are godly men and women that uphold the Constitution of
the United States of America, who strongly adhere to the principles of Christian life as outlined in Gods Holy Word, and
who live a life that is submitted to the leadership of the Holy Spirit. Lets take a look at a few scriptures that deal with
the Church and government.
NATIONALLY:

Proverbs 29:18:
KJV - Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.
NLT - When people do not accept divine guidance, they run wild. But whoever obeys the law is joyful.
GNT - A nation without Gods guidance is a nation without order. Happy are those who keep Gods law.

Ecclesiastes 10:17:
GNT - But a country is fortunate to have a king who makes his own decisions and leaders who eat at
the proper time, who control themselves and dont get drunk.
AMP - Happy (fortunate and to be envied) are you, O land, when your king is a free man and of noble
birth and character and when your officials feast at the proper time--for strength and not for drunkenness!
YLT - Happy art thou, O land, When thy king [is] a son of freemen, And thy princes do eat in due season,
For might, and not for drunkenness.

Proverbs 28:2:
TLB - When there is moral rot within a nation, its government topples easily; but with honest, sensible
leaders there is stability.
KLV - For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof: but by a man of understanding and
knowledge the state thereof shall be prolonged.
NLT - When there is moral rot within a nation, its government topples easily. But wise and knowledgeable leaders bring stability.

LEADERSHIP:

1.

Proverbs 11:14:
NLT - Without wise leadership, a nation falls; with many counselors, there is safety.
KJV - Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
NLV - A nation falls where there is no wise leading, but it is safe where there are many wise men who
know what to do.

Proverbs 16:12:
TMT - Good leaders abhor wrongdoing of all kinds; sound leadership has a moral foundation.
WYC - They that do wickedly be abominable to the king; for the throne of the realm is made steadfast
by rightfulness.
NKJV - It is an abomination for kings to commit wickedness, For a throne is established by righteousness.

Proverbs 29:4:
TMT - A leader of good judgment gives stability; an exploiting leader leaves a trail of waste.
NLT - A just king gives stability to his nation, but one who demands bribes destroys it.

Proverbs 29:2:
KJV - When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the

will show you a miserable people.
CITIZENSHIP & PRAYER:

1 Peter 2:13-17:
TMT - Makes Jesus your Lord proud of you by being good citizens. Respect the authorities, whatever
their level; they are Gods emissaries for keeping order. It is Gods will that by doing good, you might
cure the ignorance of fools... Exercise your freedom by serving God, not by breaking the rules. Treat
everyone you meet with dignity. Love your spiritual family. Revere God. Respect the government.

Romans 13:1:
KJV - Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers
that be are ordained of God.

CHAPTER I1:
OUTREACHES

41

PURPOSE
The purpose of doing an Outreach or Bible study in the communities, is it opens the door to reach more people with
the Gospel and raise up more leaders that will help reach their own community. Doing a large outreach event allows an
opportunity to see many get saved. Doing a Bible Study opens the door to pour into those who are already saved, teaching them the Word, and allowing them to renew their minds with the Truth.You get the opportunity on a weekly basis to
demonstrate the Word to them outside of the four walls of the church.
Another great way to get people saved or to attend a Bible study is to do a large outreach where items are given away.
At the event you can invite people on the buses and invite them to church.

STARTING OUT
Getting a Location - There are many different locations to do a Bible Study. When choosing a location its always good to
pray and be led.You can have a Bible Study through contacts or you can go in without knowing anyone and end up with a
powerful Bible Study.
DIFFERENT LOCATIONS
A. House - for a house you can use someone who rides on your bus or attends your church.
a. Inside - in a kitchen or living room.
b. Outside - in the yard or by the pool.
B. Apartment area Its good to contact the manager and let them know what you are doing and get their permission depending on what you are doing especially if you are doing activities. Its good to have their blessing and let
them know what you are doing in their community.
a. Clubhouse with permission some have a nice room you can use for free.
b. Basketball Court or open cement area
c. Playground
d. Open grass area
e. Pool area
C. Park is good if it is free to the public and in a good location.

42

CREATIVE IDEAS
SNACKS Having chips, drinks, cookies, and/or candy available before or after your Bible study.
COOKOUTS Having a community cook out brings the community together and will bring a lot more people than
your regular Bible study.

You can have them once a month or every two weeks depending on how often you decide.
Hotdogs, chips, candy, and drinks are simple and easy. For condiments, you can just use ketchup and mustard.
Have chairs if they are available and set them up in rows facing one direction like it would be for a service.
Usually a lot of people will come to this activity that may never have heard the Gospel. Its best to wait to serve
the people food. Have them sit in the chairs facing a speaker and preach the Gospel to them. Give them a chance
to receive Jesus by doing an altar call.
After people receive Jesus you can give the people a chance to be filled with the Holy Spirit or even receive a
healing.
You can talk about your weekly Bible Study and invite them to ride the bus to church. Have your Bus Flyers available to hand out.
Pray for the food and serve the people.

OTHER IDEAS The same outline as above can apply to giveaways you may want to do in the community such as

Gift Cards
Clothes
Food Boxes
Furniture
Household Goods
School Supplies
Basketball Tournament with prizes

43

FLYERS

Dont flyer more than 2-3 days before your event unless you plan to flyer the day before and/
or on the day of the event.
When designing your flyer, always include these important details:
1. NAME OF AREA - You can put the name of the apartments, neighborhood, park, or area of whom you are inviting.
2. FOOD - if you are doing food, drink, snacks, a cookout, always state in large letters what you are offering at your
event. Also, always emphasize the word FREE.
3. MUSIC - if there is music of any type say so on your flyer.
4. WHEN - put the date and the day of your Cookout event. If you are just advertising your weekly Bible Study if
you had them on Fridays, you can put Every Friday and no date.
5. TIME - afternoons after 5 PM is best to do a Bible study, because people are off work and can attend.
6. WHERE - always describe where you are doing this Bible study or cookout. Most people know the area of their
community but not all. Include the cross intersection you are near to help them find you.
7. INFO- put a contact number of the church and the name of who they can contact if they have questions about
the event or about your church.
8. OTHER- Anything else you would like to include about your Bible Study.You may have a drawing with a cash
prize, or games with small fun prizes.
On the next few pages are examples of a regular Bible study flyers and event flyers.

EXAMPLE CHECKLIST:
Here is a checklist that can be added to that is used for outreaches. It is good to have one so
that no tools are forgotten. On it is a line for name of Outreach and date. This sheet is also
included on the CD.

47

THE SIMPLE GOSPEL

When it comes to a Bible Study, it is simply what it isa Bible Study. It is a time to teach. There is a difference between
preaching and teaching.You want to take time to help the people you are teaching to understand and learn the Truths
of the Word. When you have a group of people who have not grown up in church, you want to teach as though you are
teaching children.You want it simple and not complicated.
When you do major outreaches that draw a lot of new people in to your cook out or giveaways, you should definitely
preach the Gospel giving them an opportunity to receive Jesus and also baptize them with the Holy Ghost.
On the CD included, there are sermon notes on the 12 Foundations Of Our Faith also called 12 Pillars. They go over
basic subjects in a Christians life and can be used for any type of Bible study whether in a community or in a high school.
These are great tools for young believers or believers who never have learned the foundations of the Word of God.

LEADERSHIP MINISTRY
When doing a Bible study in a community you become the Leader of that community. If all you do is show up to preach
until next week you are just a guest speaker in that community. People need more than just a preacher, but someone
wholl show up and do the Word by showing they care. The Key is consistency. Consistency is not a trait of the world.
God is consistent in His love for us. This is something they need to see from someone filled with the Spirit who represents God to them.You must be consistent to be a part of their lives and build relationships with them embracing them
as family.You must show that your love for Jesus is real! Pray for them!
During the outreach/Bible study you can do a registration card or sign up sheet to get peoples names and contact information so you can follow up. On the CD included is an excel with our registration cards.
Here are some ideas for reaching the community:
1. Attend and/or Serve at Community Events:

Fun Gatherings
Awareness Events
Holiday Gatherings
Fundraisers

2. Attend Major Events in the Individuals Life:

Wedding
Baby Shower
Hospital Visit
Home Visit (person sick or injured)
Funeral
Birthday
Anniversary

3. Soul Winning- teach people to soul win and reach their own community
4. Just Show Up
Host Games
Cook Outs
Play with Kids
5. Contact the people who attend your Bible Study and let them know you are thinking about them and praying for
them etc.
Call
Text
Email
Visit
6. Items to bring to an event, visit, or even to bless the office employees of the apartment complex
Cookies
Donuts
Flowers
Card
Present
Food Box
Meal
Need Items (Toilet Paper, Tooth Paste, Shampoo, Etc.)
49

DONATIONS
Goal: Bringing in a constant flow of goods, services, products, and finances to the outreach department/ministry. Praying
and believing God for the finances to bring in the harvest with outreach/winning souls.
Luke 6:38 Give and it shall be given unto you, a good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, shall
men give into your bosom.

I. STARTING
1. FINDING COMPANIES: Search the web for all types of businesses local as well as major corporations located in
your area. If it is a major corporation, find out if the company has grants.
2. CONTACT: Find the contact number for the company.You will need certain information from them if they are
going to donate.
3. INFORMATION NEEDED: Company name, address, attn to whom and fax, email or mailing address. Also, what
they are donating, so we know what to ask for: grant (finances), store gift cards, products, services, discounts, etc.
Brainstorming for drop boxes, etc.
4. CREATE A RELATIONSHIP: Creating an ongoing relationship with local businesses helps set up ongoing and
future partnerships. (For example, ask, Can you also donate to us next year?)
5. DAILY GOAL: Find 1+ new company to add to the donations roster with sending information. Send out 3+ donation requests, follow up on 3+ previous requests sent, updating roster with details. Weekly, trust God for at least
1 donation. Review next giveaway and focus on gathering items in by due date. PLAN, PLAN, PLAN. If you have an
outreach or event, plan ahead to ensure you have a donation!!!

II. CALLING THE COMPANY

YOU:
Hello, may I please speak with your Store Manager?
(If a restaurant, ask for General Manager, if a retail store, ask for Personnel or HR Manager.)
(When person answers)
Hello, Im calling from ____________ and I was calling to find out what your process was for applying for a donation.
THEM:
Well, what were you looking for and what is the donation for?
(Sometimes they will send you directly to a web site to apply or give you a fax or an email to send a request to.)
YOU:
We were looking for grant funds or a store gift card to support our missions work here in the local communities
with families in need. We provide food, clothing, and other goods to the families. Do you think you might be able to
help us? A donation of any amount would be greatly appreciated.
THEM:
(Most of the time, they will tell you what they can do or how to apply. So, get the details about where you are applying and how. Sometimes, they will say to send them a letter and theyll get back to you in a couple days.YOU get back
to them and follow-up if you have not heard from them. They most likely will not get back with you.)
(Often, they say they can do a gift card for $25 for example.You can thank them and ask them if they need a letter.
And then, ask them what time you can come by and pick it up.)
Key Note: Find out if theres one corporate giving location or if each store has its own budget. If each store in the
area can give, go to company web site and paste every stores information in the city of Tampa.
TIP: When sending donation requests and making calls, keep an excel tracking sheet of all of your contacts and dates
letters were sent and to whose attention it was written to, so you can know when and to whom you are following
up with.
*On the following page is an example donation letter and is on the CD included, which is located
inside the Bible Studies folder.

DATA TRACKING
Tracking Data for your Bible Study can be as detailed as you want it. For our data records we keep track of several
elements in our Outreaches. For keeping track of data we have every outreach leader fill out a stat card and text

Outreach Stat Card:
1. COMMUNITY NAME: Name of Apartments or housing area.
2. DATE: Date of event.

of when the Bible study is. Its also helps to know when to expect stats.

may have an assistant, but theres one in leadership over the Bible study that makes the small and important decisions about the direction of the Bible studies.
5. TOTAL ATTENDANCE: This includes all workers and their children as well as everyone attending the Bible Study
6. 13 & UNDER: Number of Kids.

STARTING OUT
A. When looking for areas to start picking up, its always important to begin with prayer. Following the leading of the
Holy Spirit is always vital to effectively reach your city.
B. Google Maps is a great resource for mapping locations. On Google you can see what a location looks like without
even going there. By clicking on SATELLITE you are able to tell whether the locations on the map are stores,
businesses or apartments or homes. Apartments are good because there are many people in one location.
C. Depending on the transportation you have available, you will know how many areas you want to reach. The more
transportation the more areas.
D. When you start out, you may not see a large response. The key is to be faithful reaching with your outreach efforts
in these areas on a weekly base. If you keep knocking and sharing the Gospel, they will come.

E. The next page has an example sheet for mapping a route on Google.

CREATING A ROUTE
1. To have a good estimation on time for
pick up, drive through to see how long
it takes between each pick up location.
Point A-8:30 AM. Point B-8:45 AM. Point
C-8:50 AM. Allow 5 minutes per pick up
location.
2. The yellow areas will be where you flyer
with the time and location (RED dot)
where they can be picked up.
3. You can pick people up at the front of
their apartments at one location.
4. Always consider for large and busy
roads its best to pick up on the right
side of the road.
5. The apartments between points A, B, & C will receive flyers as well. This map is just an example. Everything below
A on the same road down to Co Rd 582A could all be 8:30 AM. With Points B & C, the road can be split. The
South part of the road where B is can be 8:45 AM. The North part where C is can be 8:50 AM.

56

FLYERS
A. On the next page is a general and very simple black & white flyer that has been very effective and very inexpensive.You can make it even simpler (as long as it is understandable) and still have great results.
B. On the flyer if we have multiple locations, well put a blank for pickup location and a blank for what time they
would be picked up on Sunday.You can also type in the name of the apartment area and time and make flyers for
each location if you would like as well.
C. Always put a contact number and/or website so that people can call if they have questions and would like more
information about the church.
D. Every Sunday we give out groceries to each household. We get a count of how many and put the food boxes on
the bus/van during service. At the end of service they back on the vehicle and we give them their box when they
get dropped off at their location. If this is something your church does or would like to do you can mention it on
the flyer you create.
E. This flyer is half page because you can make more flyers and save paper.You can do this by making your page
horizontal and giving it 2 columns.
F. For special events (Christmas Toy Give Away, Easter Egg Hunt) you can advertise on the same flyer.You can also
do prize giveaways (Gift Cards, Cash Prize, Turkeys, etc.) and advertise for it on the flyer to help draw the people
in.
G. Following is an example of a Shopping Spree Giveaway flyer with multiple bus pick up locations as well as a general flyer where you fill in time and pick up location.

57

58

SUNDAY MORNING
A. Its always good to meet with whoever is helping with your Bus Ministry helpers on Sunday morning. Its a good time
to make any announcements you would like your helpers to tell the people who get picked up.
B. Have an attendance sheet ready for each bus/van.You can make this in excel. The following
page shows you what an entire excel looks like. It is also included in the CD.
Bus Attendance
Adults: _______
Food: ____

Route: ___________________
Kids: _________
Visitor: ____

Bus Captain: _______________
Workers: ______

Date: ____________________ TOTAL: _______

C. LOCATION, is the pick up location. 0-12 and 13-17, is how many kids attending with the adult. NMC, are those
interested in New Members Class. FOOD, is number of adults getting a food box. PRESENT, is that the person is present.
VISITOR, are those coming for the first time. TOTAL total including children.
D. If you are running vans, you can have someone with the driver to help with attendance. On a bus, you may have a Bus
Captain who greets the people and may preach an encouraging word on the way to the church after all the stops have
been made. Then there would be a helper on the bus who takes the attendance on the route.
E. After Sunday, you can call everyone on your attendance sheet. Its good to have an excel so you can keep track of attendance and can tell how long someone may not be coming.
F. FOOD MINISTRY Check your local food banks for getting food on a weekly basis. We give out a food box to every
adult on the buses automatically and load it on the bus during the service. For others who have a need for a food box we
do not give it to them until the end of the service.
G. If a child wants to come without a parent we ask them to have their parent/guardian fill out a permission slip before
they come that Sunday. On the two next pages are examples of a bus attendance sheet and permission slip.

After Sunday, everyone on the Bus Attendance gets a call. We call them, and love on them as family. We call to say Hello
and see if they have any prayer requests.
Bus Follow-Up Calls
Hello my name is _________, from ________________(Name of your Church).
We are calling to say Hello, and that we love you and to see how you are doing.

do for people who come on the buses, water baptism dates, new membership classes, etc.)

62

DATA TRACKING
Every Sunday, we keep a record of how many total comes on the buses. Keeping track of growth lets us know the impact
we are making on the city. We put this information in an excel file with the date of the Sunday. In the CD included are
two Bus Graphs one like below and another that has data tracked by monthly average. In the graph below with each date
is a record of attendance for that Sunday. The graph next to it shows you increase and decrease in attendance.

63
