EVANGELISM:


Panginoong Hesus, marami akong nakakasalamuha na tao na mapapahamak sa impiyerno.  Gamitin mo ako na maibahagi ko sa kanilang ang ebanghelyo ng kaligtasan.  Dalangin ko rin na ang aming misyon at magising na sa matagal na pagkakahimbing... na ang bawat isa at ibahagi ang ebanghelyo ng kaligtasan sa mga taong nakakasalamuha nila bago pa maging huli ang lahat sa mga taong iyon.  Ilagay mo rin sa aming mga puso ang magimbita ng mga tao para makadalo sa pananambahan kung saan mabibigyan sila ng pagkakataon na marinig ang Gospel.  Sa aming pagkukulang sa evangelism kapatawaran ang aking hinihingi.  Salamat po.  Amen.
