A NEW Smaller Tract for our Outreach Portfolio


I am quite excited to be able to tell you about a NEW tract that is now 'on the drawing board' for use in the Consider Christ Outreach into the Border Counties.

Conscious of the fact that not everyone will completely read a tract that contains 900 words (Tract #2 in the Campaign) - thankfully some will! - we are also arranging to take a small DL leaflet on the subject of Repentance:

- one side features a thought-provoking graphic designed by Jason Ramasami (see above);

- the other side contains the following relevant Scriptures:

TIME TO TURN

• The first line of the first sermon that Jesus preached in public contained the command, “Repent ye, and believe the gospel” (Mark 1:14-15).

• When those in the crowd to whom Peter preached were convinced by the gospel message, they asked him what they should do, and he counselled, “Repent.” Preaching the very next day, the same Apostle declared, “Repent ye therefore, and be converted that your sins may be blotted out” (Acts 2:38; 3:19).

• As he reached the crux of his message on Mars’ Hill, Athens, the apostle Paul told his hearers that God, “now commandeth all men everywhere to repent” (Acts 17:30). To press home the urgency of this repentance, Paul explained, “Because God hath appointed a day, in the which He will judge the world in righteousness by that Man [Jesus] whom He hath ordained” (Acts 17:31).

Today
... it is Time for you to Turn. Turn from Sin, and Turn to the Saviour.


You cannot repent too soon, because you do not know how soon it may be too late.

The above form is revised in that the location of one of the venues for outreach is changed from Kilkeel to Monaghan.

The second tract for use in personal outreach in the Second Phase of the Consider Christ Campaign was finalised today.

It should be printed towards the beginning of next week and will therefore be available for distribution in major towns belonging to the Five Border Counties next weekend.

Gospel Outreach DVD

12 noon was the start time for the production of a DVD to be used on Gospel Outreach in the Consider Christ Campaign.

It is hoped that this DVD will be ready for distribution when outreach teams converge on Monaghan Town and Rossknowlagh on the weekend of 26-28 November 2010.

Revs. Ian Brown, David McLaughlin, Robert Ormerod and David Smith each took turns at occupying 'the hot seat' to record messages for use on the DVD.
(Rev. Ron Johnstone had been filmed at the weekend).

Initially, the benchmark had been set at 500-800 words ... after the 'first take' some trimming was deemed necessary.

The 'finished products' last between 1 min 54 sec and 5 min 31 sec..

Titles include:

'The Gospel'

'Why Did Jesus Die?'

'The Debt Is Paid'

'Sins Forgiven'

'Behold The Lamb'

'The Alphabet of Salvation'

'Three Great Anchors.'

Come and join with us in taking the Gospel via this medium to people in the 5 Border Counties – or assist with distribution by purchasing some (at modest cost) to pass on to your unconverted friends.

Change of Venue for Consider Christ Outreach


Today we have been able to negotiate a deal with the Four Seasons Hotel in Monaghan that will allow the group that will engage in Gospel Outreach in Counties Monaghan, Cavan and Louth to stay in, and work from, the heart of this area.

So, from Kilkeel ..... to Monaghan we go!

An amended Application Form will therefore be uploaded soon!
