Shocking Evangelism Statistics!

https://bible.org/illustration/evangelism-statistics

„Ninety-five percent of all Christians have never won a soul to Christ.
Eighty percent of all Christians do not consistently witness for Christ.
Less than two percent are involved in the ministry of evangelism.
Seventy-one percent do not give toward the financing of the great Commission.

One particular denomination did a survey on its leadership ministries. The results are as follows:

• 63% of the leadership in this denomination, including deacons and elders, have not led one stranger to Jesus in the last two years through the method of “Go Ye” evangelism.
• 49% of the leadership ministries spend zero time in an average week ministering outside of the church.
• 89% of the leadership ministries have zero time reserved on their list of weekly priorities for going out to evangelize.
• 99% of the leadership ministries believe that every Christian, including leadership, has been commanded to preach the gospel to a lost world.
• 97% believe that if the leadership had a greater conviction and involvement in evangelism, that it would be an example for the church to follow.
• 96% of the leadership believe their churches would have grown faster if they would have been more involved in evangelism.

Because of this, our results in evangelism have been mediocre, at best.

Diana Pand 1979 – 2018 Official Obituary

ATLANTA, GA – April 15th, 2018 – Pianist, piano teacher, Diana went to be with her Lord. She was 38 years old.

Diana, was born on June 20th, 1979 in Oradea, Romania to Tina and Alex Petrut. She arrived in the United States when she was 2 years old with her mother, being long awaited by her father, who initially emigrated to America in the year of 1979, right after Diana was born.

Diana grew up in An Arbor, Michigan and was part of the Christian Romanian Community Church in the Detroit Metro area. At the age of 14 she started to get curios of the piano her parents bought as part of the furniture in the house. As she was a curious and a determined girl, she started to acquire some basic skills on the piano to the surprise of her parents. This opened up a new perspective to Diana and to her parents. From that point on, Diana used her strong will and hard work, and for the next few years was able to compete with all the other piano prodigies who started piano at young ages.

After graduating high school, Diana was admitted at the Easter Michigan University where she studied music with the major in Piano Performance. In 2001, she received her Bachelor of Piano Performance Degree after completing an hour long, all memorized exam from the classic composers of Chopin, Beethoven, Debussy, Poulenc and Bach.

In her seventeen years of musical career, Diana played the piano at hundreds of musical and religious events. Diana also taught piano to over several hundred students and guided them during performances through the years. Most of her students achieved a high level of Excellence from the Piano Teachers Associations of Georgia. A few years ago, Diana was named the top events pianist in Atlanta area.

Even though her music career was a very successful one, her heart was close to her church community and to the many different music ministries she was involved with as a pianist, singer and a music director.

At the age of 16, Diana showed her dedication to her Lord Jesus and was baptized at the Middlebelt Romanian Church in the Detroit area.

While in high school, in her first visit back to the country that she was born in, at the age of 16, Diana met Steli, an 18-year-old young man, with whom she shared the same June 20th birthday with. Steli, very deeply passionate with music as well, and one who played numerous instruments, directed the local church band and choir, and was a student of the Romanian Music and Arts School. In reality, their first picture together is on the streets of Oradea, their hometown. They quickly discovered the light of their first love shining in their hearts.

God met the desires of their hearts, and in 1998 Steli won the Visa Lottery and moved to the United States and in the year of 2000, they are united in commitment of marriage in front of God and the friends at Middlebelt Romanian Church.

Her musical career grew as they moved to Atlanta, GA where she continued to perform at concerts and events all over Georgia. She was actively involved with the musical department at Philadelphia Romanian Church and other churches in the area, both Romanian and American. She sang and accompanied choirs and orchestras at national and international conventions. Diana also showed a passion for teaching and she offered piano classes at her home in Cumming, Georgia. Diana also had a passion for the Women’s Ministry and she created numerous events for fellowship and spiritual growth.

In June 7th, 2006, while praying and fasting for a daughter God revealed to her a verse from Isaiah 51 with verse 3, which states the following: For the Lord will comfort Zion, He will comfort all her waste places; He will make her wilderness like Eden, And her desert like the garden of the Lord; Joy and gladness will be found in it, Thanksgiving and the voice of Melody. Instantly Diana knew that her prayer was answered, and a name was given, and a voice of Melody was to be found in her new gifted and loving daughter, Melody.

In April 17th, 2008, after praying for a sister for Melody, the dream came true and Alyssa, a perfect and beautiful second daughter was born. Bold but with a caring heart Alyssa grew up to be a perfect sister companion for Melody bringing the right balance in our little family.

Both, Melody and Alyssa at the very early ages were introduced into music, taking piano and voice lessons from Diana and Steli. Diana pass down her passion for music and her artistic and intellectual genes to her beloved daughters, who were the treasures of her soul, the pearls of her heart, wanting almost to multiply herself in them.

Melody and Alyssa were meant to have their mother and father alongside their own journey in life, but in the summer of 2016 their peace was rocked, and their universe was shaken when Diana was diagnosed with stage IV cancer, metastasized in her whole body. During this hard time, Diana never let go and became an image and a symbol of faith and hope and Steli a pillar of strength and a picture of love.

After almost two years of agony, Diana’s body could not keep up with the rhythm of her soul anymore and gave up. Diana was ready to go and meet her Lord Jesus whom she loved so much.

Therefore, in the morning of the beautiful Sunday of April 15th, 2018, at exactly 9:00 AM, at the time when the angels come to gather up our prayer and songs, they also picked up a beautiful soul that was ready to fly, into the freedom of space, to an eternal place, that was long prepared, for the one who cared, and was ready to dare, a life that she could share, with the God that deserved to forever be served!

As a result, Diana is saying good bye to her husband Steli, in whose embrace she found so much peace. She is saying good bye to her adorable daughters, Melody and Alyssa, to whom she is leaving all her love and trust which they will now receive from their father’s embrace. To him, she is leaving a part of her soul and her personality in each of their daughters.

She is saying good bye to her loving parents, Tina and Alex Petrut, whose love and care was constant and deep. She is saying good bye to her dear sister, Sandy Lacatus, with whom she shared her childhood years and beautiful memories and to Sandy’s husband, Marius Lacatus.

She is saying good bye to her sister-in-law Fibia and her husband Rob Gee from Atlanta with whom she shared many beautiful memories over the last 15 years.

She is saying good bye to her brother-in-law Teo Panc from Bucharest, Romania, to his wife Daniela, and their little 3 weeks old baby son, whom Diana gave his “Dominic” middle name to.

She is saying good bye to her father-in-law Teodor Panc from Oradea, Romania but she is saying “Hello” to her mother-in-law Maria Panc with whom she is meeting again at the gates of Heaven.

She is saying good bye to all her cousins and all her relatives from Michigan, Chicago, California, Arizona, Missouri and from everywhere else in the United States, England, Canada, Austria and Romania.

She is saying good bye to those who walked alongside her and encouraged her in her long suffering. She is saying good bye to her friends and colleagues all around Atlanta and the World.

Last but not least, she is saying good bye to Philadelphia Romanian Church and all other churches in the region where she poured her heart into over the years.

She is leaving everyone in God’s Good Care and Protection and conveys the hope of the day when we will all be reunited in the Heaven of our Lord Jesus.

Diana Pand: I am free!

În memoria Dianei PAND

Dragă Diana ,

Vei fi întotdeauna o candelă aprinsă în sufletul nostru și vom prețui fiecare clipă petrecută împreună. Vom păstra amintirea chipului tău luminos iar în memoria noastră vor răsuna mereu acordurile fugărite de tine pe clapele bicolore ale bătrânului pian. Știm, că simfoniile lui Beethoven sau operele lui Mozart, Bach, Debussy sau Poulenc nu au fost îndeajuns de convingătoare pentru degetele tale iscusite și că, în drumul tău spre Betleem, ai scris în mintea ta noi portative de note. Îngerii te-au auzit interpretând coloane lungi sonore si te-au sedus să cânți doar pentru ei, acompaniind coruri și orchestre ce răsună în armonii universale.

Dumnezeu să-ți odihnească sufletul adormit întru speranța învierii!

În memoria Dianei PAND,

Din nou contra familiei: Klaus Iohannis NU va promulga Legea Referendumului, deși este obligat de lege să o facă. Președintele a anunțat că o va contesta la CCR

CrestinTotal.ro

Președintele Klaus Ioahnnis a spus miercuri că nu va promulga Legea referendumului în forma în care i-a fost trimisă, având nemulțumiri în legătură cu aceasta. Șeful statului a precizat că va cere și punctul de vedere al Curții Constituționale a României (CCR).

„Așa cum a ajuns acum la mine nu va fi promulgată. Am oarece nemulțumiri în privința ei și voi cere opinia Curții Constituționale”, a declarat Iohannis, conform News.ro.

Această declarație vina în ciuda faptului că Președintele nu se mai poate opune promulgării Legii, dat fiind faptul că prin Constituție, șeful statului poate face acest lucru doar o singură dată.

Plenul Camerei Deputaților a adoptat în 4 aprilie, în calitate de for decizional, cu 195 de voturi „pentru”, 71 de voturi „împotrivă” și 6 abțineri, Legea referendumului, trimisă la reexaminare de către președinte Klaus Iohannis.

9 Marks of an Unhealthy Church

By  Kevin DeYoung

April 11, 2018

„Thanks to Mark Dever, many of us have become well acquainted with the 9 Marks of a Healthy Church. While these were never meant to be the last word on everything a church should be or do, the nine marks have been helpful in reminding Christians (and pastors especially) of the necessary substance we often forget in an age fixated on style…”

1. The more peripheral the sermon topic, the more excited the people become.

2. The church staff does not enjoy coming to work.

3. The pastor and his wife do not get along.

4. Almost no one knows where the money goes.

5. The leadership team never changes or always changes.

6. No one is ever raised up from the church for pastoral ministry or sent from the church into missionary service

7. There is a bottle neck in decision making.

8. The preaching has become erratic.

9. There are issues everyone knows about but no one talks about openly.
