Use your help
If you are the only one, then do it yourself. We have done
it, just my wife and I, even just me on some occasions.
Once others hear about how well it works, they will want to know
more.
Illustration
We know a pastor in Guymon, OK, who has a Bar B Q after their local
parade, at the church for all who help. He has a large number,
plus, help from other churches in neighboring towns. No body
was doing parades, until he determined he would.
TOP
Bag your tracts
If you have a lot of helpers, put several hundred tracts to the
bag. If it is just you, put about one thousand in one bag.
TOP
Place your helpers
Pair them up and stage them out along the parade route.
The idea is to give everyone a tract.
TOP
Stay out of
the Parade
Don't use your helpers to wave at the crowd from a float and
throw candy at them. Use them to put tracts in willing hands.
TOP
Reveal your
Expectations
Let your helpers know that at a Parade you are not wanting to try to
witness, just get the Word in receptive hands. God's Word will
not return void.
* Expect to get rid of every tract
* Expect to flood the community with the Word
* Expect the Lord to take over when the tracts are
gone
* Expect to see some results ...
- Next Sunday morning
- Shortly after the rapture of the Church
* Expect the tracts to convict ...
- soften hearts
- harden hearts
either way you have done your job.
