Igniting Ministry offers local churches new evangelism tools, highlighted by a series of powerful national cable network commercials designed to raise positive awareness about our church.

The commercials meet people where they are and address those with hungry hearts with messages about God's love.

But Igniting Ministry is more than television commercials; it's also a coordinated and comprehensive series of efforts offering resources to assist local churches in strengthening their welcoming and marketing skills.

All is aimed at helping make disciples of Christ.

The five coordinated efforts are Matching Grants, regional training, the Igniting Ministry Planning Kit, Open House Month and the national cable TV commercials.

The national television campaign will be launched this September and will coordinate with United Methodist Open House Month. This nationwide effort is directed at getting ready for company and inviting persons into our churches.
