Evangelism

The Evangelism Department oversees the work of spreading the gospel across the Texas Conference territory and partners with local churches for training, resources and program development.

We’re serious about taking the Adventist Message to all Texas and the World in this Generation. Every believer – man, woman and child – is encouraged to participate in this tremendous and exciting mission.

Evangelism Assistance is provided to help pastors and dedicated lay members take the Adventist message and movement to people and communities who have not had a chance to hear it and see it in action, and to invite them to become a part of the Adventist Movement.

To be the best stewards of the resources we follow these principles.

  1. Provide MATERIALS to all interested pastors to mobilize lay members in soul winning activities. (e.g. Starter kits of GLOW Tracts, Baptismal Lessons, Small Group Materials, etc.)
  2. Provide MENTORING to all interested pastors to help focus the district on our God-given mission and building momentum.
  3. Provide MONEY to Growth Hot Spots around the Conference (Matching grants to districts/churches/companies where we see many people are uniting with the Adventist Movement through Baptisms/POF).
  4. Provide MISSIONARY MICRO-GRANTS for groups of volunteers who pioneer taking the Adventist message to communities who have not heard the Adventist Message and/or seen the Adventist Movement in action.

Each year your Conference Evangelism Director and Team will provide information on what materials, mentoring, money and missionary micro-grants are available and how to access each. Here’s information for 2021. When money is approved it will be sent to the appropriate church treasurer in trust for the project, to be managed by the designated person or group in the church.

Below you will find additional ideas, tools and resources to help you, your group or church family and our Conference take the Adventist message to the entire world in this generation.

Through MORE, we hope to give Texas a glimpse of God, manifested by love through words and action.

The Hidden Cantata

In the summer of 1974, my 15-year-old brother, William E. Martin, “Bill” as we call him, began to write songs about the Three Angels’ Messages for his youth singing group.
