The Word Life Appreciation Awards 23' is Sun 17 Dec 2023. Voting opens Sun 22 Oct 2023:
COMMITMENT TO OFFLINE EVANGELISM is for those who have been diligently handing out WLC & REON pamphlets; witnessed publicly or to loved ones; accepted the call to be a Cell Group Leader; and invited people to church.
COMMITMENT TO ONLINE EVANGELISM is to acknowledge those who have proclaimed the gospel online; started or maintained an online ministry; re-shared WLC events on social media; assisted with Word Life's website and social media; or maybe invited someone to attend our Early Morning Prayer on Zoom.
COMMITMENT TO SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT is to acknowledge those who have shown growth in their spiritual journey. Maybe you've increased your attendance to Sunday services or other WLC events?
