This IWC Mark XVII Pilot’s watch was my daily go-to for most of 2013. Other watches received big wrist time in spurts, but this is one I keep replica watches coming back to. It’s simple, straightforward, can take a beating, and can be worn with everything from a t shirt to a suit. Whether hanging out around New York City or traveling, I can count on the Mark XVII in any circumstance, which is exactly what I need in a watch.

Who Are We? Our Mission:

ABUNDANT is an evangelistic ministry focusing on using the Medical Missionary work as the “right arm” of the gospel. We understand that the Medical Missionary work is an entering wedge and not the message itself.

Therefore, our mission is first and foremost, to promulgate the Three Angel’s Messages as expressed in Revelation 14:6-12 with special emphasis on utilizing Christ’s method of evangelism. We are told that “during His ministry, Jesus devoted more time to healing the sick than to preaching” {MH 19}.

Christ’s method alone will give true success in reaching the people. The Saviour mingled with men as one who desired their good. He showed His sympathy for them, ministered to their needs, and won their confidence. Then He bade them, “Follow Me.” {MH 143.3}

 

There is need of coming close to the people by personal effort. If less time were given to sermonizing, and more time were spent in personal ministry, greater results would be seen. The poor are to be relieved, the sick cared for, the sorrowing and the bereaved comforted, the ignorant instructed, the inexperienced counseled. We are to weep with those that weep, and rejoice with those that rejoice. Accompanied by the power of persuasion, the power of prayer, the power of the love of God, this work will not, cannot, be without fruit. {MH 143.4}

Notice that the statement drives home forcefully that there is only one true method of success.

Our Program

We have an organized company of Bible Workers, Canvassers, Singers, Pianist, Hygienic Cooking Instructor, Videographer and Evangelist. Our entire team are trained Medical Missionaries who are educated in disease, its causes, prevention and cure. 

Our Bible workers survey the community a few months in advance of an evangelistic effort. They go door-to-door assessing the needs of the community and coming close to the people. As a result of this personal ministry, relationships are built and Bible studies are gained. In essence they are mingling with men as one who desired their good. This provides the opportunity to sympathize with them, minister to their needs and win their confidence. This is all preparatory to the meetings. They inform the community about the upcoming seminar and generate enthusiasm leading up to the meeting.

The Meetings

We customize programs based on the budget and time that the church has allotted. However, we try to stick to a minimum of 3 weeks which is our standard seminar length.

The first week is primarily health-focused. We talk about the western lifestyles diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, arthritis, cancer etc. Every night there is either a natural remedy or cooking demo. The week of health is capped by an instructive and lively cooking class so they can “taste and see that the Lord is good”.

The last health meeting transitions to the doctrinal messages in which we  begin to share our distinct beliefs. The natural remedies, cooking demo or health nugget continues throughout the remainder of the meetings as well. We are very conscious to keep the health message before the people.

Church Preparation

Many would be willing to work if they were taught how to begin. They need to be instructed and encouraged. Every church should be a training school for Christian workers. Its members should be taught how to give Bible readings… {MH 149}

We understand that the meetings cannot be truly successful without the help of the church. The first step is to arouse the church members to take personal responsibility in evangelism.

A serious and perhaps unsuspected hindrance to the success of the truth is to be found in our churches themselves….In laboring where there are already some in the faith, the minister should at first seek not so much to convert unbelievers, as to train the church-members for acceptable cooperation. Let him labor for them individually, endeavoring to arouse them to seek for a deeper experience themselves, and to work for others. When they are prepared to sustain the minister by their prayers and labors, greater success will attend his efforts. {GW 196.2}

In light of this, we see the need for the church members to be thoroughly trained in soul-winning so that when the Evangelist and his team depart, the church can continue the work that was started. They also serve as an intricate part of the door-to-door team along with the Bible workers. Additionally, we encourage the entire church to go out into the community every Sabbath.

Church Training

In most cases, due to time limitations, we are not able to cover the whole health series. In those cases, we select the messages appropriate to the time allotted and the target audience. We also do health coaching/consultations for the church and the community.

The cooking class concludes the health week and is usually a bridge into the first night of the evangelistic meeting.

Follow-up Series
Jesus, Paul, and the Apostles often circled back to where they held their campaigns to check on and revive the flock. We have done this as well and found it to be a tremendous blessing to ourselves as well as the church.

Below is a list of either weekend or one-week series that we conduct as a follow-up to evangelistic efforts:

  • Gethsemane: a series on Christ’s great sacrifice for us and how to enter into His experience
  • A Storm Is Coming: As It Was In The Days Of Noah
  • Revival and Reformation Through The Sanctuary
  • Coming Events of Bible Prophecy
  • Courtship and Marriage

The Cost

Excluding the the church training and traveling expenses, the cost range varies depending on the amount of bible workers, length of meeting and whether the church elects to have our pianist among other variables. Due to the customizable nature of our program, a more detailed cost analysis will follow once the needs of the church are discussed.

A rich reward will be given to the true workers, who put all there is of them into the work. There is no greater bliss on this side of heaven than in winning souls to Christ. {Ev 333.3}

Might you prayerfully consider entering into this most solemn and joyful work.

Please Note:

  • Bible workers are optional and our preference is to have active church members doing the bible work.
  • In order to ensure that both the church members and community have complete access to the information that will be shared, ABUNDANT Life will make their materials (books, CDs, DVDs) available for purchase.
