Bringing Hope to Malaysian Homes
NECF Malaysia is tying up with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA) to launch “My Hope Project”, a 10-month evangelistic programme targeting homes as the centres for the sharing of the gospel.
Like Matthew, who invited friends into his house to meet Jesus (Luke 5:27–32), the goal of My Hope Project is to bring evangelism home – literally by mobilising Christians across the nation to open their homes to friends, relatives, and neighbours and share the gospel with them using a special film featuring Billy Graham and Franklin Graham, and a movie translated into the local language.
The project also provides an effective means of following up with new believers. Response cards, filled out by those who have made decisions, are routed to local pastors for their follow up.
Since the new believers are already friends with the church members who invited them into their homes, they are easily assimilated into local churches.
This project, which first started in Latin America, has spread to Russia, India and Philippines, bringing many first-time commitments to Christ.
In the process, millions of Christians have also been encouraged, trained, and given the opportunity to tell others about the change Christ has made in their lives.
A team of Malaysian pastors went to Philippines to witness the launch of this project last December and returned with much excitement.
The project will kick off in late February and culminate at Christmas. |
