Hello, my friends! For about 9 years now, I have had the
most incredible blessing and privilege of teaching EvanTell's
evangelism training seminar for the staff and volunteers
of several Pregnancy Help Centers in the Dallas- Fort Worth
area. This training equips them to confidently and clearly
share the gospel with the clients that come through their
doors. We have seen the Lord do such a work after they take
the seminar and obediently apply it at their centers. They
are truly on the frontlines to get the gospel out and see
every person that walks through their doors as a divine
appointment! It is no wonder the Lord is blessing their
hearts for evangelism!! Some of these centers have been
sharing their statistics with us and I am amazed at how
each center is sharing the gospel hundreds of times in a
year's time. They are telling us how soon after their training
they are seeing young mothers trust Christ and choose life
for their babies. With this as a backdrop, the Lord has
opened the doors for EvanTell to approach some foundations
with our proposal, called," Save the Mother, Save the
Child". And this is why I am e-mailing you as we need
it bathed in prayer! This proposal was drawn up by our new
staff member, Mary Margaret Gibson, who is Director of Evangelism
in the Workplace. She along with some other staff members
have the vision to take the work that the Lord has done
in the Pregnancy Help Centers locally over the last 14 or
so years and expand it eventually throughout the U.S. and
worldwide. The number of mothers and babies that could be
saved is staggering!!
We are basically asking these foundations to fund the
evangelistic training and materials that these centers
need so they can be equipped at NO COST to the center.
So, pray the Lord will direct us to those foundations
that will be receptive to this proposal.
Most of these Pregnancy Help Centers belong to larger
"provider" organizations that are in a supportive
role to them. In order to reach the optimum number of
centers, we need to get a green light from these organizations,
so please pray we can quickly get their approval of the
proposal. (We need this before we approach the foundations.)
We really covet your prayers for this exciting opportunity!
Thank you!
Love to all of you!!! Tammy

There is already a huge answer to prayer!!! On Thursday
we met with a small group of pregnancy center related
people to do a "test run" of our proposal to
get feedback. Two of the "provider" organizations
that we need to come on board in order to reach more centers
are Heartbeat International and Carenet. ( Both have about
1,100 members, with some crossovers within the two!).
That day we had Julie Parton with us, who is on the board
of Heartbeat ,which is a miracle in itself how the Lord
dropped her into the picture!! We really needed her to
be excited about this so she could influence Heartbeat.
She was so positive about the proposal and told us that
we needed someone to open the door for us to get a hearing
since EvanTell is not a well known ministry to them, and
she would do it for us
.we didn't even have to ask
her!! But the double miracle of this is she had JUST gotten
back from a JOINT board meeting of both Heartbeat AND
Carenet and she is also going to open the door to Carenet
for us as well! We thought we were going to have to find
another person to help us with that!!!! As they said that
day, there has probably never been a proposal like this
to Heartbeat and Carenet that doesn't cost them a penny.
So thank you, for praying!
Prayer requests: Pray that Heartbeat International and
Carenet will be influenced strongly by Julie so Mary Margaret
can meet with those key
people SOON AND that they will come on board. If we don't
get these on board with us, the foundations may not approve
funding this,
as we need to show them we have access to many centers,
not just the few in the Dallas -Fort Worth area.
Sometime in March, we are hosting a reception at EvanTell
to present this proposal for a larger group of area pregnancy
center directors,
people on the adoption side , key people on EvanTell's
board, and people with financial means.
Thank you, again, for praying and if you have any questions
or if you know people with financial means that might
want to support reaching so many vulnerable women with
the gospel, let us know! Love ya! Tammy
