Power Force Report

We had an amazing weekend of outreach services. Before we get to the nitty gritty, thanks to all who served to make it happen. Tons of volunteers, thanks!

So, what really happened? Did that many people really come forward to respond to Christ? To get saved? Were they seriously commiting to Christ?

Here is what we know:

Attendnace

• Sunday AM - 208
• Sunday PM - 254
• Monday PM - 549
• Pittsburg Community Middle School - 425 students and faculty
• Columbus Middle School - 425 students and faculty
  

Overall Commitments

• First Time Commitments to Christ - 31 (4 from FLAG, 3 from other churches)
• Recommitment to Christ - 61 (16 from FLAG, 3 from other churches)
• These are people who came forward, filled out a card, and actually turned it in.
• People/Families FLAG can follow up on - 95

FLAG Response

• Volunteers all over, early and late, serving like Christ!
• FLAG attenders who invited and/or brought people - Many!
• Commitments to Make Follow Up Phone Calls - 29!
• Follow up letters with picnic invitaitons sent - 95
• Follow up phone calls made - approx 90

Here is what I am believing for/expecting:

• God will cause His church to grow and the gates of hell will not prevail against it.
• Some (25%) of these commitments will show up at FLAG.
• Others (25%) will show up at another church. Many (50%) will not follow through, now.
• Some of these 50% will follow through at a later date, perhaps when a crisis hits their lives, perhaps to FLAG.
• A positive reputation for FLAG, Pentecostals, and Christians was made on approximately 500 visitors to these services. As well as approx 850 in public schools.

Our response as individuals who attend FLAG to those who visited/made commitments will be obscenely important. More so than how "good" service is this Sunday.

Let's keep growing forward!
