• Jesus said, "Go into the world and proclaim
  
  the gospel to the whole creation."  The
  
  gospel of Jesus Christ is the hope that is
  
  within us.  The goal of the Evangelism
  
  Division of the Board for Congregational
  
  Services is to equip the Body of Christ to
  

"give a reason for the hope that is within them" through each person's vocations and through the congregation as a corporate entity.  Evangelism is the honor of every member and we hope not only to remove obstacles from that joyous proclamation, but to consider more closely what opportunities we may be overlooking.  We provide resources, encouragement and education to accomplish this goal.
