WHAT'S THE SEND?
The Send is a nationwide campaign designed to empower believers to share the Gospel. The purpose of The Send is to serve the local church.
At our events, attendees are encouraged to commit to “Take Action for the Gospel” by filling out an online form with missional calls for them to reach High Schools, Universities, Children, Local Neighbourhoods, and the Nations.
We then notify their church leadership of their response. You receive an Excel sheet with the missional interests and contact details of your participating church members (in agreement with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use
WHAT'S NEXT?
Your church leadership is encouraged to prayerfully respond to your members and guide them to take practical steps sharing the Gospel. We believe you know your context and members better than anyone.
CONNECTING WITH CHRISTIAN MINISTRIES
All missional calls encourage church engagement. Some call for working with your church exclusively. We’ve also provided options that connect your members with vetted Christian organisations to support them as they take action. We inform you of these connections here and provide contact information. We encourage you to connect with these organisations to shepherd their engagement with your members.
PLEASE ACT
We urge you to respond to the desires of your church members to share the Gospel. Please seize this moment of enthusiasm and act now. Your response is crucial to their success. We hope The Send is a blessing to you and your church community. Thank you for your support and trust.
