Impact World Tour has three phases:
Preparation:
This
preparation is already underway in Scotland. To prepare for a good
harvest we must prepare individually and communally. Preparation is
spiritual and organizational and involves preparation for discipling
those that will come to Christ. We are in this phase today.
Proclamation:
Language,
gender, age and values are important elements of our culture. To
effectively reach Scottish people, we must minister cross-culturally.
The IWT presents the Gospel in 21st century relevant ways, using
elements of culture itself to deliver the message of Jesus.
Planting:
Discipleship
is the one word that best describes phase three. We aim to disciple on
three levels: one-on-one, in small groups and neighborhood fellowships.
The activities
across all
the Churches in Penicuik has already started, and will lead up to the
outreach which will focus on different sections of our community.

| | Frank Kremer visits St. Mungo's - 13 March 2011 |
As
the forthcoming Impact World Tour, which aims to re-connect people of
all ages to the Church, heads for Penicuik in November,
facilitator Frank Kremer visited St. Mungo's for the Sunday
service on
13th March.
Frank explained what was in store when the season of outreach
that God is leading us into comes to town, and what we as a
congregation can do to make this successful.
Impact
World Tour Scotland Our minister Geoff Berry with Frank Kremer provides opportunity for local Christians to reach
out and present the Gospel to family and friends as well as providing a
dynamic presentation that draws in those we find so hard to reach.
Working
hand in hand with the local church we all have the chance to come
together and seek God for the welfare of our communities. Using
international performing arts, sporting and musical groups in campaign
style evangelism, Impact World Tour provides an effective and relevant
means of expressing Christ’s message.
The IWT reaches out to different age groups through three presentations:-
Team Xtreme
is a group of world class athletes, conditioning experts and power
lifters with a concern for today's young generations. While showing
their strength, Team Xtreme has confronted life's tough issues head on.
From their experiences, they offer insights and motivate people of all
ages to excel at everything and build themselves up in every way.
Island Breeze uses
the beauty and expression of 'culture' itself, Polynesian dancers and
musicians use their indigenous music, dance and song to share their
faith. Adults and children alike are captivated. Island Breeze
ministers to indigenous peoples (people originating in or native to a
specific place), and ethnic groups within a nation. Island Breeze uses
their unique cultural expressions to glorify God, restoring dignity and
self-worth to many.
GX International uses 'blades,
boards, bikes and beat'. GX International present the Gospel in a fast
and fluid way unlike anything you've ever seen. Speaking right to the
issues that face the young generations, they offer solid answers to the
tough questions of life.
Impact World Tour
is not an event – it’s part of a season of outreach God is
leading us into. This is following along the lines of what God has been
speaking and doing through the ‘Connecting Scotland' with Pray
for Scotland\ initiative.
Outreaches and proclamation of the
Gospel will take place in public venues, churches, prisons, high
schools and retirement homes.
