Saturate Cincinnati

Zion Lutheran Church is joining the Saturate Movement!

 

At our council meeting in June, Pastor Jason brought us an idea called Saturate USA. After he explained that local churches were working together to help spread the good news of Jesus Christ, the council members were all interested in getting Zion involved. I volunteered to organize the event because I believe it is important for our community and important for Zion.

 

Saturate USA, https://christforallpeoples.org/saturate-usa/, is a countrywide movement by churches of all denominations to distribute door hangers filled with evangelistic materials to every home in America. Each door hanger packet will have evangelistic DVDs, including the Jesus Movie watched by over 5 billion people globally, tracts and a letter from local churches.

 

The mission is to saturate 60 million homes by 2020 in order to reach Christ for all peoples. The cost has already been paid by businesses who believe that our country needs to rediscover the message of the Gospel and we need to cry out in prayer for revival to sweep the land. United in love and with God on our side, they believe we can win America back to Christ.

 

Nationally, Orlando, Florida, was the first city to tackle saturating their city and they saw revitalization, growth and cooperation as the packets were delivered to every single home in their city.

 

Locally, First Baptist Church of Anderson Hills is heading up Saturate Cincinnati but many churches are choosing to help. You can follow the local progress by going to www.Saturatecincinnati.org.

 

As it takes 2 people 2 hours to distribute 200 packets and we have signed up to pass out 2000 packets, we would like to have at least 20 people gather at church at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday, August 24th. We will:

  1. fuel up with a light breakfast
  2. pray together
  3. receive a map of the streets to deliver to
  4. go out in groups of 2 adults/young adults (and as many kids as we can get!) to hit neighborhoods around Zion until each of the 10 teams hangs approximately 200 door hangers.

5,     After your packets are all passed out, which should be around noon, you are free to go home.

 

 

If you cannot make it August 24 but still want to help, you can take any leftover packets and pass them out on your own time.

Friends and families are encouraged to sign up at the table in the atrium starting Sunday, August 4 to Sunday, August 18, so you too can help fulfill the Great Commission! I am excited to see the outcome from this massive effort that covers the whole country. A lot of prayer has been raised up both nationally and locally asking God to be involved in a mighty way!
