2010 in Review - The Foundation for Evangelism
In 2010 The Foundation for Evangelism introduced new recognition programs, experienced successes in doctoral education programs, and welcomed a variety of professional changes for members of the Foundation family. All the while we focused on the theme for 2010; Wesleyan Evangelism in the 21st century.
Through it all, we continue our vision to raise up generations of leaders with a passion for evangelism.
Here are just a few highlights from 2010.

Vibrant Church Series - Mt. Pleasant UMC
Part of a series of interviews with pastors of churches whose attendance has grown 20% or more in 5 years.
Mount Pleasant United Methodist is located in the Piedmont of North Carolina in the town of Mount Pleasant about 30 miles North of Charlotte.
This is a phenomenal congregation blessed by God. I am reminded of the words spoken by Mary, "my soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.."(Luke 1:46). I rejoice at the hand of God upon us.
As I reflect concerning the vitality of these people, it is a gift from the Holy Spirit. These people want to grow and are unafraid to make the necessary changes to see it happen...
