Lifehope Wales - Reach Out 2012

Wales is a land that in the past has known great spiritual revival but now very few people have any real knowledge of the gospel and only a small percentage go regularly to a church of any kind. You will be working with an international team alongside experienced workers. Each day there will be training in various aspects of outreach, street ministry in an urban area and each evening you will work with a local church. You will have plenty of opportunities to share your faith one to one as well as being an encouragement to one of the local churches by serving them in their ongoing ministry. The outreach will take place in a county and surrounding areas called ‘The Vale of Glamorgan’ which is mainly made up of smaller towns with one or two larger urban areas. For most of the time the teams will be accommodated all together at a local Christian conference centre which will be the base of operations and the venue for training.

Turning Point Reaching the People - Reaching the Lost

During the Outreach you will receive training, which will equip you in basic Islamics & Christian doctrine. It is centred on the Muslim mindset and how to share the Gospel in a culturally sensitive way! It also includes International Team Life, in which you will have opportunities to cook, clean, pray and worship together! All teams will be living in churches, which means the accommodation won't be 5 star! OM is based on a 'learn by doing' process and you will get plenty of 'street time' to put into practise all you have learned. You could do anything from book-tables, to street work, to door to door, to dvd distribution, to speakers corner! you will find yourself doing things you never thought you could. Our first priority is to the church plants that we have in London; the turkish church in North London and the International church in Central London. Our strategy and evangelism is based around these church plants, and is the reason for much of what you will do
