EVANGELISM MINISTRY

This ministry is designed to teach and assist in fulfilling the "going" and "baptizing" part of Line Street's mission. How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! Isa. 52:7
We live in an age in which we are bombarded with negative information that is broadcasted and publicized. But we as God's children can spread good news about God's grace and salvation. Evangelism is communicating the Gospel to people in an understandable way and motivate people to respond to Christ and become a member of His Church. John 3:16 tells us God sent his son to save us.
