We advise that men do not take part in this activity unless in the presence of<br />

women from your church and that this is done as a group activity.<br />

1. Take some red roses and give them out to sex workers.<br />

2. Give out prayer request cards, pray for them, if they want prayer and tell<br />

them that they are welcome to attend your church!<br />

3. Prepare your church to receive people on the fringes of society through<br />

teaching and discussion prior to this outreach.<br />

Go the second mile<br />

Matthew 5:38-42<br />

‘You have heard that it was said, “Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.” But I tell<br />

you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn<br />

to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your<br />

shirt, hand over your coat as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with<br />

them two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the<br />

one who wants to borrow from you.’<br />

The context of going a second mile when someone asked them to go one,<br />

was one where the Romans would often force people to walk with them<br />

a mile. How much more should we consider going the extra mile,<br />

when <strong>Jesus</strong> asks us?<br />

Ask <strong>Jesus</strong> if this is something you should do again!<br />
