“Then he said to his disciples, ‘The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.’” – Matthew 9:37-38

In 1996, a team of Christians in Kansas City partnered with Campus Crusade for Christ in the Jesus Video Project. Through a new prayer-based, relational distribution approach, more than 10,000 Christian households adopted more than 40,000 probable unchurched neighbor homes. During the year those Christians prayed for them, met with them, and ministered to them. Then, during the Christmas Season, they delivered a gift-wrapped Jesus Film VHS tape with cookies and a personal note to those adopted neighbor homes. After Christmas, each participating Christian home had the natural opportunity to follow up when they saw their neighbors. It grew into the nonprofit “Bless Every Home”.

Today, Bless Every Home gives churches throughout America the tools to get to know their neighbors by name so that they can begin to build relationships with them.

The Lord desires everyone to come to Him. Today in prayer, pray to the Lord that He will raise up more workers to share His Gospel and ask how you can help.
