Outreach Purpose and Concepts
The outreach ministry web site is an application designed to assist the church in reaching communities with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The application works with the concept of creating individual missions. Church members may customize missions to reach their own neighbors or any neighborhood they desire. There is no limit on the number of missions which may be created. Secondly, it allows the church to easily follow up on the connections made from connections made during the mission. Going back to Benjamine Franklin’s wisdom, “If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail!” Setting goals and working toward specific objectives is vital to the success of any mission. This web application specifically gives you the tools to plan and manage as it applies to outreach ministry.
The outreach ministry web site provides access to users based on Login/Password credentials. There are two basic types of users, church administrators and church members. Once a user has registered in the website, the church administrator may approve their registration which will give them access to their churches missions. The outreach ministry web application is integrated with google maps to allow members to create a list of addresses to reach. Google maps is embedded in a web page to allow a member to zoom in and pan to any area on the map and click on houses to create a list. Colored/Numbered markers are created and saved on the map for easily identifying all the residents which are in each mission. Mission maps and mission data may be saved as a PDF doc for printing. Two of the items generated when printing a mission are shown below:
