We're telephoning 12,000 households within 3 miles of our church in a project we're calling the Connection Campaign. We've got two reasons for the calls: to invite anyone not already plugged in to a church to an Open House October 14, and to identify prayer requests in our community.
As to the first goal: we've had 114 households say they'll come, and another 168 express interest and ask for more information so they can think about it. On October 14, we expect to host about 200 households at our service and lunch.
As to the second goal: our callers have forwarded 769 prayer requests to our prayer team that is meeting in another room during our calls. Wow! The photo above is a shot of one of our prayer teams at work.
We have called for 12 nights and we have 8 more nights of calling to go, so there will be many more prospects and prayers to record. Good stuff!
