Mission Sunday
Start prayerfully planning now!
2019 Mission Sunday will be May 5. The entire contribu-
tion that day will go toward our mission efforts at Deer-
foot Church of Christ. Last year $83,152.00 was given on
mission Sunday. Let’s try to beat that this year! Think of
all the wonderful mission efforts we can fund!
Mission Sunday and the Youth Campaigns
The youth of the Woodlawn/Roebuck Parkway/
Deerfoot church have been involved in campaign work be-
ginning back in 1986 when a number of our young people
traveled to Vicksburg, Mississippi at the invitation of the
West Huntsville church of Christ to help in a campaign they
were conducting. This work led in turn to the youth here
conducting their own campaigns, helping out a number of
smaller congregations in our country.
The first of these efforts was really what Bill Brown,
the Youth Minister at that time, called a “boot camp.” This
was where the young people stayed at a camp and learned
about how to conduct a campaign of door knocking, inviting
people to hear the gospel preached and
offering Bible studies. I believe that the gospel meeting was
held at the church of Christ on Pleasant field Road in Oak-
man, Alabama.
The first of the true traveling campaigns done on our
own was in 1989 to Hayes, Virginia and worked with the
Gloucester Church of Christ. The church at Roebuck had
purchased a 24 passenger bus for $36,000 that the youth
were able to use. The youth group was invited back to
Gloucester for the next year but they were unable to go ow-
ing to a commitment to hold a campaign in Deltona, Florida.
The youth would return for two more campaigns in Deltona
in 1994 and 1997.
Through the years the youth have traveled to a num-
ber of states conducting campaigns in Thomasville, Geor-
gia; Roanoke, Virginia; Douglasville, Georgia; Chicago, Illi-
nois; Martinsville, Indiana; St. Catherine, Ontario Canada;
Randolph, New Jersey; Barnwell, South Carolina; Columbia,
Tennessee, Logan Martin, Alabama; Fulton, and Amory,
Mississippi, Rockville, Maryland, Tampa, Florida, Williams-
ton, S.C..
On these trips the church paid for the transportation
and lodging while the young people were responsible for
paying for all of the non-campaign activities. This would in-
clude visits for fun activities such as Disney World in Or-
lando or the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky
or riding on the Maid of the Mist to get a close up view of
Niagara Falls.
These trips are important first of all because the gos-
pel is being preached; people are being invited to hear great
gospel sermons and they are offered the opportunity to
study the Bible in their own homes through means of a free
Bible Correspondence Course. These campaigns are also
important because our young people are given the opportu-
nity to learn by the actual experience of working for God in
spreading His word.
All of the work that has been done in the past was
due to the money given by Christians here at Deerfoot who
have given so generously on Mission Sunday. Any such
efforts in the future will also be dependent upon how gener-
ous we continue to be in giving to support each of these
works. May we continue to enjoy God’s blessings and may
be always be willing to share those blessings in doing
God’s work by giving back to God as He has so generously
given to us.
