Day of Outreach
What is the best thing that has ever happened to you in your whole life? Was it a gift? A special trip? Awesome people in your life? If you believe the Bible and think hard, it is likely the moment that you heard the message of salvation through Jesus Christ, and believed it. So what is the greatest thing that you could do for someone else? Is it not that you could help others discover Jesus as their Lord and Savior as well? Sharing the gospel is not natural to any of us, but it is supernatural. We at MPM are convinced God has called us not to just be happy Christians in a bubble, but to be joyous Christians that are inviting others to consider and believe the Gospel. This is a key part of the Great Commission that Jesus gave to us when He said "go into all the world and make disciples" Matt 28:18
The day of outreach is one of the most unique and exciting things that will happen at the RMWC. On January 1st, the conference staff and students will leave the Three Trails Ranch in teams to go into the mission field to trust God to share the best news in the universe. There are 3 teams that will be trying to do evangelism in different contexts. Each team will be trained with some basics, and then people will be working together in pairs. We think God will use the fact that it will be News Years Day- a day when people are typically thinking about lifestyle change.
1. Ski day- If you are excited about skiing or snowboarding, this may be for you. Rachel W and Philip will be heading this up at Purgatory ski area. Every chair lift ride will be a chance to strike up a conversation about Jesus. The cost for this trip will be $70 and will include a half day of skiing. Questions, call or text Rachel at 808-214-3977. You will need to make arrangements for your own ski equipment.
2. Downtown- This team will be using Soularium cards or other creative ways to meet people that are hanging out in downtown Durango. Austin will be leading this outreach.
3. Online Outreach- This team will be heading to a local church to spread out and use the internet to meet people and try to share their faith. Using the periscope App to meet new people from around the world, or using the Facebook Messenger to talk with friends are examples of what Apps we might be using. Joe and Linda West are heading this up.
Please pray about these options now, and be ready to decide before you arrive at RMWC, so that we can know your decision at registration on the 29th.
