The Top Priority of Across Arkansas: To sow the gospel to every home in Arkansas. How many homes can we reach? The Second Priority: To invite residents in the community to a guest-friendly, evangelistic Easter Service.
Four Elements of Across Arkansas: • Prayerwalking • Door-to-door gospel distribution • Evangelistic Easter service • Follow-up
How much does it cost? Basic Costs $7.20 per 100 homes (100 brochures = $6.00; 100 bags = $1.20) (not including shipping) 4’ x 8’ Banners = $50.00 each
How much does it cost? Our church can distribute the gospel to 500 homes and place banner in the church yard for around $90! 1000 homes and a banner for around $125. 2000 homes and a banner for around $200.
Determine territory to cover (get with associational missionary). • Purchase resources. • Organize prayerwalking routes. • Prayerwalk (March 1-April 10). • Create and print Easter invitations. • Stuff brochures and invitations into bags.
7. Hang bags on doors where prayer- walking was done (April 11-23). • Plan an evangelistic, guest-friendly Easter service (April 24). • Gather guests’ contact information. • Follow up on prospects and new believers (April 25-May 2).
Proposed Timeline: Prayerwalk: March 1-April 10 Gospel distribution: April 11-23 Easter Service: April 24 Follow-up: April 25-May 2
How does “Across Arkansas” relate to Reaching Generation Now (RGN)? Encourage older children and youth to participate in prayer walking and gospel distribution. Train older children and youth to welcome guests to the service, especially those their age. On Easter, have teachers teach an evangelistic lesson in the older children and youth S.S. classes.
