GPS (GOD’S PLAN FOR SHARING) ACROSS MISSOURI is a major evangelistic campaign to deliver the Gospel to 2.3 million households across Missouri in the weeks leading up to Easter Sunday, 2010. GPS ACROSS MISSOURI has four phases.
The PREPARATION Phase (January and February, 2010) is the time for each Church to determine the areas around their Church where they will Prayer walk, as well as take steps to improve “First Impressions” of Church facilities, getting ready for company, Easter Sunday.
The PRAYERWALKING Phase (March 6 & 13 are suggested Saturdays) is the time for each Church to Prayer walk (or Prayer drive in some cases) their community, asking God to bless families and open hearts to the Gospel.
The DISTRIBUTION Phase (March 20 & 27 are suggested Saturdays) is the time for each Church to return to the Prayer walked areas and place a plastic bag on each door. It will contain only two items: A presentation of the Gospel, and, a brochure from that Church, inviting residents to Worship Easter Sunday, April 4. During this phase, a media campaign will be underway that will reinforce the message of the Gospel brochure.
The FOLLOW-UP Phase will be conducted from Easter through Mothers Day (April 4-May 9), during which time Churches will be following up on those who attended Easter Sunday and responded to the Gospel brochure.
