Abstract

The primary goal of this project is to explore a new method of connecting the postmodern people in gated communities to young Christians of a local church. The project leader recruited seventeen postmodern-age church members to participate in the project. After the participants were recruited, the project leader trained them to understand and embrace their role in the project. This project leader demonstrated that a communal, relational connection with postmodern people provides a foundation for evangelism. Targeting a local group of gated communities, the participants attempted to call the postmodern people in these properties and invite them to attend a community event. A mailed invitation coincided with the personal call. At the community event, the participatns helped the guests fill out a registration for the prizes, invited them to a social event with friends that week, and invited them to join them at church the next Sunday. Through various obstacles discussed in the project, this project leader discovered valuable principles for the evangelization of postmodern people. This project leader believes that the training, combined with creative solutions to unforeseen obstacles produced the desired results.
