The value of churches having regular visiting teams going out with the gospel cannot be over-emphasised.
It is effective and not as difficult as many believe. Through visiting we meet people of all age-groups, and, given time and patience, we can gain their confidence and forge friendships with those who are interested to look into the Christian faith. Contact will be made with hundreds who do not attend church services.
What to take
We should be prepared to make notes using a notebook or assignment card. Bibles should be small and kept ready for use in pocket or bag. Suitable literature and Scriptures selected for distribution will have been read beforehand*. Leaflets about your church are essential as a means of identification, and can be given to those who express an interest.
