How It Works

A Simple Plan for Reaching the Streets Around Your Church.

Map Your Mission Field.

Define your radius, identify streets, assign territories, and display a progress map.

Invite Conversations.

Train volunteer pairs to introduce themselves, offer a Bible, ask two questions, and respect every response.

Love Through Service.

Respond to prayer requests and expressed needs with practical help, always with permission.

Engage for Discipleship.

Follow up when invited, share the gospel clearly, build relationships, and offer next steps toward Christ.

“How can our church pray for you and your family?”

“How can our church serve you and your family?”

Sample volunteer script

“Hi! My name is [Name], and I'm from [Church Name], just down the road. We're visiting our neighbors because we want to be a church that genuinely cares about the people in our community. We have a free Bible for you, if you'd like one. Could I ask you two quick questions? First, how can our church pray for you and your family? Second, how can our church serve you and your family? Thank you for your time. Would it be all right if someone from our church followed up about that?”

Replace [Name] and [Church Name] with your own details.

The one-mile radius is a practical organizing tool, not a biblical mandate. Door-to-door outreach is one faithful method among many.
