Evangelistic Crusade

I. THE LOCATION & DATES

Once the location & dates of the WMA evangelistic crusade has been accepted and agreed upon, the next step is the invitation to Pastors, Church leaders and believers in Christianity for their support and prayers!

II. THE INVITATION

The most impressive way to extend an official invitation to a WMA evangelistic crusade is to make it as all-inclusive as possible. In addition to the Ministerial Association, other Protestant religious and denominational bodies should be asked to join in the invitation. Such an invitation gives religious leaders an opportunity to be vitally concerned and become a part of the crusade right from the start. Also, the wide impact of such an invitation is quite evident.
