Training

Our training is rooted in the Christian Life and Witness Course (CLWC) for adults and FM419 for youth. These are the best opportunities you have to become equipped for a Celebration as well as a lifetime of evangelism and discipleship.

CLWCChristian Life and Witness Course
CLWC will reignite your faith and empower you to live a life that radiates God’s love. Discover the victory He has for His children and equip yourself to share it with others through this dynamic course. You’ll also find practical help in reaching the next generation for Christ. The course is taught by a representative of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association.

FM419FM419
FM419 is specifically designed for youth, but adults are welcome to attend. Youth from across the region will gather for a session of music and life-changing training. Get down to the basics of what you believe, find power to live what you say, and learn how to share your faith with others.

“Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” (Matthew 4:19)

FM419 student evangelism training took place on April 27.


Be an Andrew

In John 1:40-42a (NIV) we read, “Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus. The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah” (that is, the Christ). And he brought him to Jesus.”

Be an Andrew is based on that passage. Those of us who have a personal relationship with Christ must seek out our brothers and sisters who don’t know Him and bring them to Him. We do this by making a list of those we know who need to know Jesus, then praying for them and building/strengthening our relationships with them. We make plans to take them to the Celebration services, not just invite them to go. Many people have come to Christ because of Be an Andrew.

This program encourages you to:

  • Look Around – to identify relatives, friends, co-workers, or acquaintances who show the need for a relationship with Christ.
  • Look Up – by routinely praying for these individuals and for the opportunity to strengthen your relationship with them.
  • Look Out – for ways to cultivate friendships with each person on your list and earn their confidence, ultimately finding opportunities to talk with them about Christ.
  • Look Forward – to invite each person to a Celebration meeting.
  • Look After – those who respond to the invitation or show an interest in learning more about the Gospel.

Make your list today and start praying!
