Stirring the Church to Action!

To love God with all our heart, soul and strength, and our neighbor as ourselves....

We know we should love our neighbors; joining our hearts and lives with fellow Christians and reaching those that don't know Him with the love of Christ and the message of redemption.

We know we are called to the highways and byways, to compel them to come to His great feast, but there are many challenges to obeying this command. We are often too busy. How do we do it?

Now there's a simple way to reach out and to help our neighbors that doesn't require committing another specific "night" or day in an already packed schedule. Instead of going to another "meeting" and talking about doing something for God that time can be spent DOING it, and you can fit it into your schedule whenever you want.

Multi-purpose door to door visits

Tell them

The most and perhaps only effective way of telling the real "good news" to people is through a Christian who is filled with the Spirit and Word of God, speaking the truth in love, even if it is not comfortable. The world, starting with our neighbors must know that the "part time" Christianity and hypocrisy often displayed in the modern church is not a representation of the full redemption Christ came to provide. We must demonstrate a transformed life and a love of the brethren that will cause them to wonder, and to know that we are His disciples.

If we do not get a chance to talk in person, as much as is possible without the personal impassioned plea, the printed invitations with the web address that we leave with our neighbors will aim to help us:

Tell everyone the good news of our redemption and how they can be saved.
Invite our neighbors to church (home churches in the neighborhood or a traditional church).
Stir up Christians to live what they believe.
Invite neighbors to nearby events for fellowship and friendship
Invite neighbors, Christians AND their whole Church to join in, adopt some streets and link their hearts and hands to ours!

Show them

The LYNC Coordinators help us work together:

Through the open door of volunteer service and genuine hospitality we can build relationships and meet our neighbors' practical needs so the Church truly demonstrates the love of Christ with our actions.
We can deepen the relationships and "make disciples" through friendships. Invite neighbors and new friends to your church's small groups, dinner, picnics, whatever. If your church doesn't have a small group meeting, start a neighborhood prayer/study group focused on reaching your other neighbors. Get the Sunday School outside the walls and out where they are starving for truth. Jesus trained his disciples on the streets, not in the synagogue!

God has been stirring the church,

Gifts are being realized,

Passion is ignited,

The harvest is white...

It's time to send the Workers

The LYNC Network is a simple plan to activate and organize the workers in the field.

Often we think of someone in church, at work, or maybe in our neighborhood that is in need and we wish we could help them, but maybe we don't have time at the moment we think about it, or we may not have the resources or skills to help them. Sometimes it just slips our minds. So many spiritual and physical needs often end up unseen, unheard and sadly, unmet. Ironically, at the same time many Christians' ministry gifts are pent up, stifled or become stagnant because they lack an outlet.

This plan gives the body of Christ the ability to quickly and easily match the need with the ministry gift, and get the job done. Believers will be released to minister in the areas they feel called. Souls in need of a Savior will find Him, and the love of God will be demonstrated as we take the "Church" to the streets.

If you're ready to register to help your neighbors or participate in any way, just call your LYNC coordinator and we'll get you started!

If you have a need...

The help that people offer through the LYNC Network is done on a neighborhood level. It is initiated through personal visits to homes. Since we do not have networks in every neighborhood it is not practical that we could receive requests for help through the internet.

This network is primarily to aid communication between Christians and others that want to help their neighbors. If you did not meet a real person who left a number there may not be a network in your neighborhood. You can try a local church or the link below for other available help
