Session 4 – Creating a Guest-Friendly Church Environment: A virtual event for the entire church
Have you ever wondered why some people come to church once, then never come back again? Do you wish you could find a way to encourage them to return a second and third time and to become regular participants in your church’s life? During this training, you will learn why people come to church but don’t return. You’ll discover things your congregation might be doing that turn them off or make it hard for them to return. Best of all, you will find out how your church can ”stick” in the hearts and minds of visitors so that they’ll want to return and become assimilated into the life of your local congregation and into God’s kingdom. Guests who attend your reaping event will want to return so you can continue a relationship with them and eventually see them decide to continue their spiritual journey as part of your church family.
Session 3 – Cultivating Purposeful Friendships for Jesus
Cultivating Purposeful Friendships for Jesus is an empowering opportunity designed to transform your friendships and your church community.
During this training, you will take a deeper dive into Jesus’ method of evangelism, which we are told is the only method that will give us true success in reaching people for God’s kingdom.
This will not add an extra burden to your life or require extra time on your part, because you will learn how to redeem the relationships you already have in your life for the kingdom of God. You’ll receive practical tips on things you can do to build friendships and trust with the pre-Adventist people in your life.
Session 2 – Conducting an Effective Bible Study Ministry
“Conducting an Effective Bible Study Ministry” is an empowering opportunity designed to transform your church community.
During this training, you will learn about one of the most fruitful methods of growing your church through baptisms–an effective Bible study ministry.
Within Adventism, the door to the baptistry leads through a Bible study. As a general rule, churches that do Bible studies have baptisms and grow. Churches that don’t do Bible studies don’t grow.
In this training, you will find out about an excellent way to find fresh Bible study leads in your community. You will be given the formula for how to start Bible studies with people in the community you are not acquainted with. You will also gain insight into how to nurture those Bible studies into solid interests for your reaping event and ultimately, baptism into Christ’s kingdom.

Our church would like continued prayers for Sabbath school teachers. Our kids class needs help and other classes are limited. We want to pray for the leaders in our church as most do multiple jobs due to limited people and resources. We continue to pray for our own church so that we don't have to continue renting as limitations exist with this setup.

I pray that my immigration status doesn’t not affect my job and that God will have his hand over my immigration meeting tomorrow. Please God, guide me and remove all anxiety. I pray that my company has grace and mercy when handling my case. I pray that my boss finds the words to guide the meeting to a point of success.

I am a 21 year old as a single mom. God, my life has been turned upside down. You have gifted me a son to call my own, but god you know the challenges. That his father may come to understand the importance of you and family. That I can be patient and guide him through his life with grace and wisdom.

Please pray for my salvation. I want to be in the Heavenly Kingdom more than anything else in the world ever. Please pray for me, brothers and sisters. Pray for me to be saved. Pray for me to talk in the paths of righteous. Pray for me to follow God’s leading. Pray for me to be strong against the evil one. I do not want to be left behind. I pray that one day Jesus will say to me, well done good and faithful servant. Please, friends. Pray for me and I will pray for you. Let us pray for each other. There is no greater thing we can do.
