The objective of this area of ministry is, specifically, to bring men to know Jesus as their personal Savior and Lord. The purpose of this area of ministry is to support the church in its mission to accomplish this objective. The overall method to be followed is to engage individual churches to determine if there are any ways in which the United Methodist Men of the North Georgia Conference could assist the local church in this area of ministry. Some examples might be: 1) provide speakers when the pastor needs to be absent (or not) who can bring a message of salvation to the church (Certified Lay Speakers); 2) bring a Lay Witness Mission to the church; 3) teach a specialized course on the meaning of salvation and its biblical basis; and 4) offer the church a spiritual retreat focused on salvation. Since measurement of success in this area of ministry would, of course, be the number of souls saved in a given FY, we can only expect to obtain an approximation of this number through the use of the NGC data of the number, across the conference, of new professions of faith. While not completely accurate, of course, this number is stably measured each year and would give us access to a common measurement by which we (and the NGC) could gage the effectiveness of our efforts in this area of ministry.
