Follow Up Card

Method #1: Lead With Prayer

The Approach:

  • Approach the person with a smile

  • “Hello my name is __________, and we’re from Light City Church. We’re out here today praying for people in the community. Do you mind if I pray for you?”

  • Yes-”Is there anything specifically that you would like pray for? Pray for them according their prayer needs and as led. Keep prayer to 1 minute max.

  • No- “No problem at all, I hope you have a great day!”

The Gospel:

  • Thank you for letting me pray for you before you go, do you mind if I share some really good news with you?

  • I’ve found out that all of our sins, which are the things we done wrong have been forgiven.

  • So let’s say you have a book bag and it was full of everything, you’ve done wrong. “Do you think that bag will be heavy?” (It’ll be pretty heavy for all of us right?)

    • That bag represents your debt with God.

  • If you owed the bank $10,000 and I came along and gave you a check for $10,000 and you gave it to the bank, what would happen to that debt? How would you feel?

  • The good news is…that is what Jesus did for you on the cross, He wrote a check for you signed in his blood, and he paid the penalty for your sins, He did because He loves and wants to have a relationship with you. And he’s standing here today at the door of your heart.

  • The INVITE: So, if Jesus was standing here today, “Would you let him in?” and Follow Him.

    • Okay, Let’s do in right now. Pray this prayer after me. From you heart, to

  • Prayer: Dear Jesus, I open the door of my heart, I say sorry for my sins. I make you Lord of my Life. I choose to follow you. Fill me with your Holy Spirit. In Your Name I pray.
