The Command: "Go ye therefore, and teach All nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost; teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the World." Matthew 28:19-20 (kjv)

--------------------------------------------
The Bible says that 'the harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few.' Where are the laborers? Thanks for asking! Graceland Outreach Ministry (laborers) can be found going throughout the streets of Santa Ana and surrounding areas sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the unsaved, affording that lost soul an opportunity to receive Christ as Lord & Savior. Teams are dispersed to pass out information about our Church to the un-churched....inviting each one to visit and experience the warm, friendly, spirit-filled "Graceland Family" worship services and to meet our Pastor personally. As groups are disbursed to locations in the community - a team is also left at the Church to pray that God would give the increase and operate the telephonic ministry updating current members of weekly activities.
Evangelism is not an option --(one that may be chosen or rejected).... INSTEAD, it is a COMMAND - A MANDATE FROM THE LORD. (reference: Matt. 28:19-20). It is imperative that we reach out to the lost and draw them into the saving grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ ALONE. (To fail to obey is blatant disobedience). Disobedience is sin and the consequence of sin is death (spiritual separation).
"Going - Sharing - Inviting" the lost to Christ is the mission of the Graceland Outreach Ministry...that each person will be afforded an opportunity to hear the wonderful plan God has for his/her life - that all would be saved. The Spiritual Surveys and The Four Spiritual Laws open avenues to meeting a man/woman/boy or girl where he/she is spiritually. That need is then met by using the Word of God.
