This morning I met with John Wega and a group of about 10 leaders. John and I pitched to them the idea about doing a large summer crusade to reach our friends with the gospel. John Wega will lead it, so that it not become a Freedom Valley show and is truly a blessing to all churches.
At this point, it is being planned for June 16-19 at the Wyndham hotel, perhaps the most prominent piece of ground in the county. We are planning to ask our friends to send teams to help us distribute literature and do outreaches all over the county, starting as early as Monday of that week- the 13'th. We plan to get literature to every house in the county, as well as using every other kind of communication tool we can think of.
Right now, the group of Pastors is praying about the name for it. The name everyone likes best is Tougher Than Hell festival/rally, a name we would borrow from Guts Church in Tulsa if they allow us to. We also considered Signs and Wonders festival, a line from the book of Acts.
About 13 churches have expressed strong interest in it already. I am asking God for 35 or more. I am also asking God for 1000 salvations over that week!
This week, Sue Knefley from Harvest Chapel, and Charity Landis will meet to start talking about logistic issues and will present to us a planning model next Thursday at 10 am when we will meet at The Wyndham again to continue discussing and planning. Hopefully more logistic minds from other churches will join them too.
Please pray for effectiveness and clarity in all of our work! Eternal souls in Heaven must be the result!
