BWC 2010 Day of Outreach Results
From Kurt Richardson, our Day of Outreach coordinator: On Monday, January 4th, 2010, approximately 420 students and staff went out into the city, linking up with over 30 other people from 9 local Boston churches and 4 organizations and 1 apartment complex in the city.
Over the course of the afternoon over 75% of the students were privileged to engage someone in a conversation about the Gospel. All told, over 471 such conversations took place (as is our custom, the students went out in pairs). Probably twice as many more “spiritual conversations” took place which did not include a Gospel presentation.
Between 10-15 people indicated they entrusted their lives to Jesus Christ. Over 350 10lb boxes of food were distributed in conjunction with 4 of the churches and 2 of the organizations. One team of students shoveled snow in driveways on 11 streets in Dorchester (in the neighborhood of the Boston Project). Another group of 40 distributed granola bars, gum and church brochures to 5000 people above T stations in Cambridge. An estimated 1/10 of those people were personally invited to the church.
Need help paying for BWC?
Right now is a great time to ask your Pastor, Home Church Missions Committee or your Christian family and friends to invest in your attendance at BWC 2010. Many adults give at year end anyway for tax purposes and investing personally in someone like you is usually much preferred. Ask in faith that God will provide for your needs and step out in faith involve others in building his Kingdom. Read through this document (focus on the last section) for all the instructions on how to ask and what to do with gifts as they come in.

Updated: BWC Blood Drive 2010
Did you know you can bless the city of Boston and the state of MA by donating blood at the BWC? MA is the only state in the union that must import blood due to it’s small size and a high concentration of major health care providers.
Giving blood is easy and makes a real difference in the lives of others who have been in God’s image. You would think that those who follow Jesus would know a thing or two about giving blood. Share the grace and mercy of the Kingdom of God by sharing your blood with someone who needs it.
To give, please CLICK HERE to schedule an appointment for the January 5 blood drive at the Sheraton Boston Hotel during the BWC.
PLEASE SCHEDULE NOW, so that the Red Cross knows that they can count on you and many others to give blood on that day. The Red Cross responds to demand to determine how many resources to devote to a drive. Make your appointment today so that the Red Cross can plan to be ready for hundreds of donors.
Here’s a recap of the first ever BWC Blood Drive last year.
