EVANGELISM MINISTRY (cont’d)<br />

Tracks<br />

During 2016 approximately 30,000 tracts were stamped for distribution.<br />

In addition, to distribution through persons’ one on one contact, tracts were distributed in<br />

all zones as well as though the Six (6) in Five (5) target areas of Brooklyn, Amityville, Bayside,<br />

Flushing, Great Neck and Freeport.<br />

During the JAMS, Jamaica Avenue festival over 3,000 tracts were distributed.<br />

Annual Jamaica Ave, Street Festival:<br />

Over One Hundred (100) members of ANAT, brightly clad in their orange outreach t-shirts<br />

with the inscription “Did you know, Jesus Saves Keeps and Satisfies,” participated in ministry<br />

to the patrons at the Annual JAMS festival.<br />

The group consisted of children and adults, medical professionals, ministers, ministry<br />

workers and leaders.<br />

Our medical professionals checked the blood pressure of over 100 persons; while hundreds<br />

others received free give-aways such as ice, water, seasonings and blood sugar monitors.<br />

Many persons were prayed for under the tent, and the touch of the lord was evident on them.<br />

The “sea of orange” could be also be seen throughout the festival as members walked through the streets handing out tracks while ministering to and praying<br />

for persons that so desired.<br />

North American Missions and Global Missions<br />

On the North American Missions field, ANAT collected an offering and blessed the Open Door Church in Brooklyn, with $3, 000 towards the acquisition of their<br />

new and current building.<br />

We also gave a Christmas for Christ offering of $5,700.<br />

It is our hope that we will have a more structured approach to raising funds for this offering and so be able to provide better “financial support [to]<br />

missionaries who work to establish churches in un-evangelized and under-evangelized areas in North America” (Adopted from UPCI website).<br />

For Global Missions, ANAT supported 23 missionaries .<br />

An additional pledge was made to support Missionary , Craig G Sully, missionaries to Senegal, French West Africa.<br />

ANAT total Partners In Mission (PIM) support for 2016 was $19,800.<br />

ANAT appreciates all those who have pledged, and continue to support missionaries home and abroad through their Faith Promise contributions.<br />

The Evangelism Team thanks Pastor Dawson and the ANAT family for the ability to have served you in the year 2016 and pray that endeavours for 2017 will be improved<br />

and increased thus helping to build on what has been established this year.<br />

Respectfully Submitted,<br />
