MINISTRY STRATEGY
🔵 Target Audience: Teenagers enrolled in public schools and teenagers living in surrounding villages who are often confronted with peer pressure, unhealthy choices, and a lack of hope and guidance.
🔵 Distribution Method: Commissioned ambassadors — two per outreach team — will first seek the blessing of the village chairperson or the high school principal. They will personally hand out Say No gospel tracts to teenagers during approved times and locations. These tracts address real-life struggles teenagers face, encouraging them to say “No” to destructive paths and “Yes” to Christ.
🔵 Relationship Building: The ambassadors do more than hand out literature — they intentionally connect with the teenagers through brief, friendly conversations. They offer encouragement, share personal testimonies when appropriate, and assure the teens of ongoing support and prayer.
🔵 Invitation Process: During each interaction, the ambassadors gauge interest and spiritual openness. Teens who express a desire to learn more are invited to join a weekly gathering for fellowship, deeper conversation, and Bible study. These sessions are preferably held in accessible community spaces such as village halls, classrooms, or other safe venues.
🔵 Weekly Fellowship and Bible Study: The weekly gatherings provide a welcoming environment where teenagers can explore the Bible, ask questions, and find support among peers. Practical topics include resisting peer pressure, making wise choices, understanding God’s purpose for their lives, and growing in faith.
🔵 Mentorship and Follow-up: The same ambassadors who distribute the tracts lead the fellowship and Bible study sessions, ensuring trust, continuity, and genuine spiritual guidance. Over time, committed teens are encouraged to become peer mentors to reach others in their schools and villages.
