Outreach Oppurtunities For You!!!

We believe that all Christians are called to evangelize. Some people evangelize one on one, some go to the highways and the hedges evangelizing to large groups, some print evangelistic materials used in outreach.How ever God has called you to share His love is great. We just want you to do it. Below are some of the things you can get involved with today!!!

Tuesday Night Visitation

You would be suprised at how many people tell us that they have never been invited to Friendship Baptist Church. All that is changing now. If you want to go door to door witnessing and inviting folks to come to church, we meet every Tuesday at 7:00 P.M. We go out in pairs. You can see the fruits of this labor through the many new faces in our church. Come help us this Tuesday!!! Light refreshments are served afterwards in the Social Hall.

Bus Ministry

Know anyboy that doesn't have a ride to church? Let us know we would love to pick them up. This is an important ministry. Many children do not have a way to church. It is our reponsibility to get them here if their families won't. Did you know Pators Mike was picked up as child and brought to church through the local Bus Minstry. Pray and see if God is leading you to help us in our own Bus Ministry. Contact Dereck Tucker for more details.

Washed Whiter Than Snow?

We want to take the Gospel to where people are at. Many people go to the Laundry Mat everyday. Wouldn't it be great if they knew that Jesus was also in the cleansing business!!! We have special packages that contain one load's worth of washing powder,a tract about having our sins washed white as snow, and a church contact card.We take these to the area laundry mats and witness to the folks there. Before we leave we place one on the top of each washer. It's easy and a lot of fun!!!

Backyard Bible Clubs

Ride down any street in Honea Path and you will see plenty of kids, many of which never go to church. Doing a Backyard Bible Club is a great way to reach them for Christ. It is kind of like a minuture (2-3 hours) Vacation Bible School. This works well at apartment complexes and trailer parks. We have plenty of open doors for this ministry in our area. Our Bus Ministry could provide rides to church for those who would like to join us at Friendship.

Free Ice Cream Truck

Another great way to reach our area youth is with a Free Ice Cream Truck. It really is a lot easier than it sounds. We have a system that can be hooked up to the Church Bus for Ice Cream Truck Music. It can be mounted for temporary use. Ice Creams are really cheap at places like Sam's Club. You basically just ride around like an Ice Cream Truck, blaring music, and giving out ice cream. We would also give out tracts, coloring pages, Bibles, and contact cards.

Homeless / Street Ministry

There is alot of ways to help us with our Street Ministry. We need food provided weekly. Check out the Ministry Needs page for each week's menu. We serve every Saturday evening at 4:30 P.M. in Anderson. We start off with a Gospel message and then follow it up with serving the food and fellowship.If you would like to give a message or testimony to the folks or sing, please let us know. All types of ministry is welcomed.

Flea Market Ministry

There are a lot of needs in the Flea Market Ministry. We give out alot of Bibles, crafts, and literture. This is a great chance to get our children involved. They can make crafts to be given out at the Flea Markets and have their own part in reaching folks for Christ.If you would like to provide anything for this ministry, please contact Justin Atkin @ (864) 940-1570 or (864) 296-1504. We also need volunteers to go out. This is a perfect chance for you to do one on one witnessing with a variety of people. Also, if you are bi-lingual (English/Spanish), we might pay you to come out!!! Just joking about the paycheck, but we are in need of someone to comminicate with the many Hispanics at the Flea Markets.

Sports Minsistries

From time to time we do Sports Outreaches at area sporting events.This includes baseball, racing, rodeos, skateboarding,etc... Their is a lot of good material out there for these types of outreach.In our area, outdoor sports such as hunting and fishing would be great. Let us know if you can help.
