The Challenge
- This program encourages church members to pass out one gospel tract a
day for 30 days.
(2)
Blitzing neighborhoods
- My church ordered door hangers, we and put a nice brochure of our church, a
business card and two gospel tracts in each bag. Then, I went to our
Chamber of Commerce and got a map of our city. Our goal is to put a door
hanger on every home in the city of Russellville. When we cover a street,
I color it on the map. If we go, God will bless. Six weeks
after we started this project we broke our three year Sunday School
record. We are blitzing neighborhoods once and sometimes twice a week. I
am writing this the first week in February, 2014. Since September 2013,
we have broken our Sunday School record five times.
(3) 'Go Into All the World' Summer Campaign - Ask the families in
your church to pick up one or more packs of gospel tracts and pass them
out on their family vacation. (Browse the website to find out different
ways to pass out tracts). Have them write down the city and state,
and where they distribute the tracts. When they return home, have
them give their distribution information to a coordinator who can compile
all the results. At the end of the summer, share with your church
all the places in which the gospel has been shared.

Special events
- Many communities have special events throughout the year. A great way
to pass out gospel tracts is to rent a booth and give out free gospel
tracts. Each year, in our town, we have a Business Expo in August, rodeo
and carnival at the fairgrounds in September, and Octoberfest in the
fall. For us, this is an ideal way to pass out tracts.
(5)
Halloween/Trunk or Treat
- When trick or treaters come to your door give them a gospel tract along
with candy. If you have kids who go trick or treating, encourage the
children to give a gospel tract to the ones who gives them candy. If your
church has trunk or treat, be sure to give out gospel tracts when you pass
out candy.

Christmas parades
- The BEST way to pass out Christmas tracts is to get sandwich bags, put pieces of candy in each bag along with a gospel tract. When
you pass these out at parades, not only will the kids be glad to receive
them, but it will put a smile on the adult's faces as well.
These are just a few ways to get a gospel tract ministry started in your
church. Again, I want to encourage your church to get involved in
this ministry. If I can help you, or if you want
me to visit your church, please
e-mail me.
Please keep this ministry in your
prayers!!!
May God Bless You,
Ken Worthen - Project Director
