STREET EVANGELISM (PROGRAM EXPENDITURES - $631,964.25)THIS WEEKLY PROGRAM FOCUSES ON PREACHING THE BIBLICAL PRINCIPLE OF MAN'S NEED FOR REPENTANCE AND SALVATION AT OUTDOOR VENUES SUCH AS PARKS, BEACHES, HIGHER EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES, AND ANYWHERE THE GENERAL PUBLIC MIGHT BE FOUND IN LARGE NUMBERS. IN ADDITION TO SPEAKING, THE PRINTED RESOURCES OF THE ORGANIZATION ARE PASSED OUT AND DISCUSSED ONE ON ONE BETWEEN MINISTRY VOLUNTEERS AND MEMBERS OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC. THE PROGRAM ALSO SUPPLIES RESOURCES, FREE OF CHARGE, TO EMPLOYEES AS ON ONGOING ENCOURAGEMENT TO BE ENGAGED IN THE PRACTICE OF STREET AND PERSONAL EVANGELISM IN THEIR EVERYDAY SURROUNDINGS.

WE ARE PLANNING A SIMILAR LARGE SCALE TRACT AND BOOK GIVEAWAY CENTERED AROUND THE CORONATION CEREMONY IN THE UK IN MAY 2023. PLANNING FOR THIS INITIATIVE BEGAN IN 3RD QUARTER 2022.THE PROGRAM IS HIGHLY EFFECTIVE IN THAT BIBLICAL TEACHING IS GOING OUT TO THE PUBLIC ON A REGULAR BASIS, AND IN THAT IT PROVIDES A CONSISTENT REAL-WORLD OPPORTUNITY FOR THE TRAINING OF CHRISTIANS TO EFFECTIVELY SHARE THEIR FAITH. WE HAVE CONTINUED TO SUPPORT LOCAL AND STATE VOLUNTEERS WHO ATTENDED LOCAL CONFERENCES, BOOK FAIRS, AND OTHER CIVIC FUNCTIONS AND GAVE AWAY COPIES OF SELECT EVANGELISTIC MATERIALS SUPPLIED BY LIVING WATERS AT NO CHARGE.
