I am planning to serve with them at some point, I was wondering if anyone has heard of the ministries they are engaged in or if anyone has done anything similar or could offer feedback/opinions/advice.

Thanks!

We are planning to make a mobile gospel unit to send a team to reach village by village and person to person. This is my strong zeal to do gospel work by sending the well trained team to unreached people.
Team to be with 6 members and well equipped in all stuff, like literature and gospel tracts, sound system and lighting system.
To reach people one by one, 6 member to reach 50 to 200 people in a day. in this way we can reach people minimum 50 000 people, maximum 100 000 in a year. Here we can reach people directly and definite.

Seems pretty weird.

Discuss: Are tracts like this Effective?

For some clarity the white side reads

Two Years after the Ratification of a Treaty of Peace between the Confederate States & the United States,

THE Confederate States OF AMERICA

Five Hundred Dollars

Jesus Says, "You must be Born Again"

The top corners have "500" displayed, the left side has a Confederate Flag. The bottom left has a star of David, the Bottom Right has a portrait of Robert E. Lee.


The back, or pink side has 500 in the upper left and bottom tight corners, the star of David in the unoccupied corners, and it has John 3:3 on the left, and John 3:16 on the right.

I think this just confuses people, and makes a joke of Gospel Tracts, but I honestly think the person who distributed these had evangelical intentions.

The whole thing makes no sense to me. I know it's like one of those bait-and-switch things (like the 1 million dollar bill with the gospel written on it) but this is just obscure. Did I mention that my mother found this on her windshield in Portland, ME? The Confederate thing is just weird.

Anybody ever distribute this particular Tract?
