“Offering Christ Today” – General Board of Discipleship
Evangelism is, at its heart, sharing faith with others --
particularly with those who are unchurched -- and inviting them into
faith in Jesus Christ and membership in the church. Yet, this is only
the beginning of the Christian life. Persons with responsibilities in
evangelism must continue to plan and offer to all people opportunities
that will provide nurture so they can become faithful disciples
of Jesus Christ.

Committee Charge
The Evangelism committee at Wesley Memorial UMC has both an external and
an internal focus:
|
External -- |
to reach out to those who are not a part of the Wesley
Memorial UMC community. |
|
Internal -- |
to nurture those who are a part of the Wesley Memorial UMC
community. |
Therefore, the Evangelism Committee must be a unique
group that serves in a highly flexible, “as needed, where needed” basis
to assist people in developing a relationship with God and living
as Christian disciples. These activities will primarily, but not
exclusively, consist of developing and preparing short/medium term
projects and activities. Accordingly, the committee will work closely
with and serve under the guidance of the Wesley Memorial UMC staff.
