Pastor Barber is coming to Central Church for evangelistic meetings in April 2018. He has challenged us to begin searching for interests through visiting homes and offering free Bible Study Cards. We will start this ministry Sabbath, December 2 with a potluck of soup and sandwiches. Training will take place from 1:30-2:00 pm, followed by visiting homes from 2:00-3:30 pm. This ministry will continue on the following dates: Dec. 9, 16; Jan. 13, 27; Feb. 10, 17, 24; and Mar. 10, 17, 24.
We invite you to co-labor with us in finding people whom the Holy Spirit has been preparing so that we can study with them and lead them to Christ.
Soup & Salvation This house-to-house labor, searching for souls, finding the lost sheep, is the most essential work that can be done. Evangelism, p. 431
