The Group-Preaching the Word, Breaking Bread, Fellowship, Prayers.
The Group's Outreach- Preach the Gospel, Heal the Sick, Cast out Demons.
OUTREACH IN THE UK.

Relevant outreaches to e.g. young mothers, elderly.
Follow-up with course e.g. Alpha, house group, tapes of services.
PRAYING FOR YOUR TOWN.
For the Church in the UK to repent of lack of love [lack of concern].
For the churches of the town.
For adults- well to do areas. Materialism, indifference to God are problems as well as more obvious sins.
For adults-poor areas. Lots of problems. Poverty leading to poor health and child neglect along with the sins of dishonesty, immorality, drunkenness, slander or violence, and dabbling in the occult.
For children- in all areas they are exposed to temptation to drink, take drugs, steal, have sex, dabble in the occult.
Pray for a school or schools in your town.
The demonic. Pray against the powers that keep people away from God. Jesus is the One Who has the power to break this hold among the poor, the well off and in the Church.

Pray for people and families you know.
Do a prayer walk with people from several churches.

Teaching English, directly or via Web http://www.CyberESL.org/messages/cybereslltr.html
Inviting them to the Jesus film, Bible studies on topical subjects e.g. marriage.
Giving Gospels, NTs or even Bibles, or CDs of the Bible or Web addresses for downloading Bibles print or audio.
OVERSEAS OUTREACH-PRAYER.
Praying for missionaries known to you.
Missionaries of your own church and countries where they are working
Praying for countries.
Muslim World
Hindu World
Buddhist World
Chinese World
Animist World
Secular World [Superficially Christian Countries]
Pray for Media and Mercy outreaches in each world You can do it, because prayer opens doors! You don't have to do it all yourselves! God can send others to where you have prayed!
Praying for an adopted people group. Each unreached group needs a team of intercessors. Fraser [Lisu people in China] had only 9 people and vast numbers became Christians.
MERCY MINISTRIES.
I believe that a very powerful way to advance Christianity is to perform mercy ministries such as detoxication for drug abusers, elementary health care, water purification, literacy, agricultural and other low-tech aid including micro loans, and that these combined with prayer for the target audience and provision of Christian literature or cassette tapes will go a long way to overcome the prejudice against Christianity that so often results from bad experiences.
We have three groups, the very poor [both the destitute and the abused whose cry reaches God, and we owe it to God to answer on His behalf], persecuted Christians [to whom we have a compelling duty], and those prejudiced against Christianity because of past abuses [We owe it to God and to them to remove the disgrace God's name has suffered]. Humanitarian outreach goes hand in hand with the preaching part of outreach- Bible translation and distribution via various media, and church planting.
There is increasingly the need for emergency aid for disasters, and the Christian and secular aid agencies are now coordinating their efforts as can be seen in the newspaper advertisements. It is the longer term aid that I have in mind here.
One approach is that church groups choose one country and support aid ministries together with preaching ministries-Bible translation and the various modes of distribution of the Gospel message, and pray for the country.
MERCY MINISTRIES AS MISSION.
To give joy to God in seeing lost people saved and destitute and oppressed people relieved. To bring glory to God through the thanksgiving of these people who have received help from Christians. The Lord delights in mercy and justice. Media ministries hold out God's mercy via the Gospel and mercy ministries [humanitarian aid] hold out God's justice [a fair deal] for all.
Development Aid
From the resources I have compiled it should be possible to build up a picture of where the many opportunities are in Africa and Asia for water purification, basic healthcare, agricultural and low-tech advice, and literacy improvement. This can be combined with prayer for the unreached people groups and combined with supporting organisations like Wycliffe Bible Translators, Language Recordings Intl and Every Home Crusade in their efforts to reach those groups.
The Persecuted and abused.
General Human Rights organisations include the well known Amnesty International. There are several Christian organisations specialising in helping persecuted Christians in Muslim and Communist countries, Three examples include Open Doors with Brother Andrew, Christian Solidarity International, and Barnabas Fund. Obtaining their magazines would give the basis for a prayer and support group for persecuted Christians world wide.Then there are abused people of all faiths,and children.
Drug Detox.
It is granted by all that detox is not enough, that boredem, bad memories, and peer pressure will result in relapse. This is where faith in Jesus is offered as a Way of Life. It hardly needs to be said that healing emotional damage is a stepwise rebuild, with many stumbles along the Way! Mentoring by people who are further on is very helpful. Harsh criticism inhibits improvement, while constructive criticism with pointing out of mistakes that have been made and how to avoid them is helpful. Direction, not disapproval is what is needed.
Children Worldwide.
Here is a great opportunity for Christian women to express their mothering instinct. get a copy of WEC International's Briefing Children and see how they can help. http://www.wec-int.org/briefings .Helping women around the world struggling with all sorts of problems, too.
Example GENESIS 1-11.. Why was this particular selection, for brief selection it is, given to the original readers? To counter the current polytheistic [Hinduistic] world view. Forget worrying about evolution. You can have your cake and eat it- Genesis 1 talks about Let the Earth bring forth.. which if you want it would accommodate evolution! Genesis 2-3 lays down essential moral truths, including the first of many remarkable prophecies about the coming of a Redeemer of mankind. Genesis 4-11 is God’s opinion of early civilisation which is considered to have started in the Middle East.
Example THE PROPHETS..Contain many prophecies about cities and nations in the Middle East which have been fulfilled, also many prophecies of the coming of a Divine Person, a Suffering Servant and a Conquering King, fulfilled in Jesus Who is to come again as Conquering King, of which time other prophecies await fulfilment. Only the Bible prophecies are consistently accurate. Also, by the way, many historical references in the prophets have mentions in the annals of the surrounding nations of the time.
Example THE GOSPELS.. The Gospels pass with flying colours all the tests used by lawyers to authenticate historical documents. The evidence is compelling, indeed overwhelming, that they are accurate accounts. The Gospels clearly present a Person whose claims, character and miraculous power indicate His deity as the Second Person of the Tri-Une God..This is the Rock on which Jesus would build His Church- His divine Personhood..The Church is the container for it’s awesome product, the New Testament, containing this Good News about Jesus, God’s Son.
The Nature of God
Only the Bible declares that we are made in the IMAGE of God, which means that He is sufficiently like us for real, person to person interaction to occur.
God is a plural Person- a Tri-Une God, three Persons existing in perfect harmony with each other and capable of will, understanding and emotion. Yet always by Jew and Christian viewed as One God.
The character of God- His awesome Holiness, His insistence on moral perfection together with His perfect love- a love so perfect that He gave His own life to buy forgiveness for our sins places the God of the Bible above anything else on Earth.
Right from the start the Church has called us to repent towards God, trust in the Lord Jesus Christ and to receive the Holy Spirit.
The Gospel. God’s way to be righteous [Right with God].
God declares that we are incapable of meeting His requirement to love God and to love our neighbour by ourselves, that we fall far short.
So God declares a new way to be right with God. If we surrender to God from our rebellion against and independence from Him and trust in Jesus His Son for forgiveness which is available because He died to pay for the sins of the whole world. His death was effective to pay for the whole world’s sins because of Who He is- the sinless Son of God- God Himself! We then must continue in this righteousness through continuing to trust in Jesus. Being saved is a constant continuing process of re-repenting and continuing to trust for continuing cleansing, all through the work of God’s Spirit who indwells us to help us..only the Bible says this amazing thing, that God actually indwells us..let us awake and repent of our slowness to believe

It seems from reading in newspapers that the Palestinians view the building of Jewish settlements on the West Bank and the shooting of stone throwing young people as the main provocations while the Jewish people constantly fear invasion and annihilation. Whatever is claimed as to whose land it is it is desperately necessary to remember no one owns any land, all of us are temporary residents in this world just as Abraham was, and we need to show kindness to our neighbour. Which the Torah commands [to treat the foreigner as one of yourselves]. As for Muslims, many feel the Quran can be interpreted to make efforts at peace while some feel war is advocated. Sadly I feel that if more care was shown to their people that they would soft pedal the war talk. Finally the Gospel [New Testament to us, Injil to Muslims] advocates non aggression and humanitarian aid in abundance with strenuous efforts to avoid conflict. We Christians have failed seriously. We must do better. Earnest frequent prayer plus whatever humanitarian aid we can give must supplement our Gospel message wherever we go with it.

ASIA HARVEST [May 2010] http://www.asiaharvest.org says: If I could take you through the streets of large cities like New Delhi, Mumbai, Hanoi, Kathmandu, Dhaka, Bangkok, Lhasa or Karachi, you would be overwhelmed by the poverty, mayhem, demonic oppression, and almost complete lack of knowledge of Jesus..After more than 20 years in Asia we are still overwhelmed when we visit such places..in rural areas hundreds of millions of people continue to live in complete spiritual darkness..in China 200 minority groups remain unreached, untold millions in the cities..Tibetans live trapped in demonic darkness, captive to powerful evil forces. Let's pray for a breakthrough for the kingdom of God!

There are several organisations for street children. Action International http://www.actionintl.org. Initiative Against Sexual Trafficking http://www.iast.net.Includes link to International Justice Mission. http://www.ijm.org . There is a book by Andy Butler called Street Children. http://worldvision.org is the World Vision Child Sponsor site.

Sponsoring National workers is being tried by http://www.christianaid.org and http://www.globaladvance.org
Books are collected by Book Aid, helped by organisations like Christian Literature crusade and OM who take in books, and distributed in [mainly] Africa. http://www.bookaid.org/
Well known secular organisations for abused people include Amnesty International http://www.amnesty.org.uk/, UNICEF Save the Children Fund http://www.unicef.org and http://www.supporterzone.org, Human Rights Watch [USA] http://www.hrw.org .

There are organisations specialising in Urban, slum work. Servants to Asia's Poor [New Zealand and UK] http://www.servantsasia.org is one. The organisations for street children mentioned above are mostly Urban. I expect that databases of Urban ministry organisations will emerge soon. An excellent overview of the Urban poor is the article from Lausanne Congress of World Evangelism, Thailand, 1980.Brilliant read. By the way, a quite different concept is Urban evangelisation, where it is recognised that the Church must expand in the great cities of [mainly] Asia where most of the population is, including the not poor. See Lausanne's essays at http://www.lausanne.org The Plight of Slum Dwellers http://www.crwrc.org
