Dear Church Family,

Once in a great while, an emphasis arises that, if accomplished, could prove to be of great value to the Kingdom, but will require tremendous cooperation and effort. This year, one of those opportunities stands before us. The North American Mission Board has been developing an campaign called “A-Cross America”. This is an effort to share the Gospel of Christ with every household in America, by inviting and encouraging them to attend one of our churches on Easter Sunday.

On a smaller scale, our state convention has embraced this challenge and has embarked upon a campaign we call “A-Cross Wyoming”. In conjunction with this, the Southern Baptist Churches in the Casper area have joined together to share the Gospel with every household in our city.

Now, how is this going to happen? Well, it is a multifaceted endeavor. The North American Mission Board along with the Wyoming Southern Baptist Convention is going to launch a strong television campaign with a number of high quality commercials, inviting people to “Find It Here”. We will be holding prayer meetings, prayer walking our neighborhoods, and otherwise seeking God’s power to be poured out upon Casper. Between now and Easter, our churches are going to ban together and invite every household in Casper to church. This will be done by placing door hangers on every home in town. The door hangers will contain a special invitation to come to church on Easter and will have the address and service times of each of our Southern Baptist Churches in the Casper area. Our church will be responsible for all the neighborhoods on the CY corridor. Ed Tharp will lead this door hanger effort. In addition to this, on Easter Sunday, we will need to have additional greeters, hosts and hostesses, parking lot help, and much more.

So as you see, there will be many opportunities for everyone to be involved in this very special and challenging effort. I would challenge you to take a few moments to seek God’s leadership in your involvement in “A-Cross Casper”. We will need people to come together and do all of these things that have been listed above. There is no way to accomplish this without a strong cooperative effort. But, cooperation is something for which we Southern Baptists are known. No one can know or even predict what the result of a massive effort like the one described in this letter will produce. But, we do know what will happen if we do nothing. We have seen that result. We live in a wonderful city. But, it is a place that desperately needs what we who bear the name of Christ already have. And that is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. If no one shares, then no one will respond. Let me strongly encourage you to join in this effort in whatever way God so leads you. When we all follow God’s leadership, I believe that we will be amazed in what God will accomplish as we see Him sweep “A-Cross Casper”, “A-Cross Wyoming”, and “A-Cross America”.

In Christ,

Pastor Quin
