Dominican Republic Evangelism: Church

Worship Services

Normally wherever our teams travel we are invited into the local churches.  Local believers are so welcoming.  Teams enjoy participating in worship with them and bringing greetings from us through a translator.   Sometimes there are opportunities for you to share a story of how Jesus has changed your life, or how you came to know him.  Other times the whole service is turned over to the preachers in our group.  It is a great chance to step out of your comfort zone and join as one in the Spirit in worshipping the King of Kings.

"Dying Religion"

At a recent church service, we showed the Jesus Film for the local community. Imagine people crowding around open windows just to catch a glimpse! At the end of the film, when Jesus came back to life, the crowd cheered and chanted, "Jesus! Jesus!" The enthusiasm brought a new understanding of the spread of the Gospel, What the world sometimes categorizes as a "dying religion," is really spreading contagious joy to those who are hearing and understanding the Gospel for the first time.
