'As Jesus went through all the towns and villages, he saw the needs of the people and had compassion on them. He said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field." God wants all people to know him and his love. He not only wants to use us, but will also raise up more workers from the harvest we will reap. Let’s keep asking God to send more workers to lead people to know Him.'

Summary

Success in witnessing is simply taking the initiative to share Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit and leaving the results to God.

'What if someone says “yes” to become a follower of Jesus at the event? What should we do? Remember, this is a VERY important step that help us see multiplication. It may be hard to talk to them during or after the event. But it is VERY important to follow-up with them within the first two days! Meet with them and do the following: '

1.	Review the Four Spiritual Laws or another Gospel tool with them, especially the 2 circles and the pages that follow.

'2.	Ask them, “Who are some others that need to hear this?” Have them write down names of 5 friends and family that they can share the gospel with. [Be sure to give them copies of the booklet or install the app.]'

3.	Let them know that you want to help them grow in their new relationship with Jesus and invite them to begin studying the Bible along with others who also put their faith in Christ during the event.

'4.	Pray for their new relationship with Christ before you leave. '
