Sustaining the Adoption
Adoption Follow Up Actions:
Checklist
Please Note: The suggested steps below are offered as a guide,
but may not match your church's structure or way of decision-making. There
are several ways to implement an adoption within a church. This is one
suggested process which we have tried to make as generic as possible. It
is our hope that you will be able to adapt the suggested steps to fit your
situation.
Follow up action
-
Notify the congregation at worship services what is happening with your
people
-
Determine how to implement your adoption (Prayer, Research, Advocacy, Networking,
Partnership, Sending)
-
Continually bring the selected unreached people before the congregation
through Sunday School, sermons, special prayer vigils etc.
-
Set up an ongoing educational process about unreached peoples in general
and the selected people
-
Regularly pray for your people as a congregation
