Jesus, is the name above all other names. Every knee shall bow, Mountains shall tumble and the seas shall roar at the name of Jesus.

We pray that." they shall see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart and should be converted, and I shall heal them. " (Matthew 13:15 (KJV)

Be a Promoter

What is a Promoter? A Promoter is someone like you who is willing to gather the troops in your hometown such as members of your church and other churches and Christian based organizations to come together toward the common cause of putting on a "Jesus is Lord" concert.

In essence you would take on the role of a concert promoter, gathering the local resources in your area necessary to put on a show.

 

Where do I start?

Right here!

  • Pray on it!
  • Procure a venue
  • Establish date & time

  • Recruit volunteers
  • Pray on it!

    We often forget the power of the Holy Spirit and try to do everything by ourselves. We need only to surrender to His will and get out of HIS way!

    Procure a Venue

    Jesus is Lord Tour is a street ministry and we're taking it to the streets! Town squares, gazebos, city parks. All these can often be had for little or no money. If a public venue is not available, your own church will certainly do of course, but our main goal is to expose the public and unsaved who would not normally enter a church to the Word of God.

    Most towns in the U.S.A have some sort of website. You can find out who to talk to in your town. Most often the Director of Parks, Chamber of Commerce, or even private citizens can provide a venue such as farms or private businesses. A good place to search for state and local governments is here: www.shgresources.com . You could also use Goggle and type in something like: "nashua nh official website", using the name of your town instead.

    When you've found your venue, be sure to state your purpose, description of event, date, times, performers and sometimes lyrics of the performers you plan on having. Provide full contact information. Finally, establish your operating costs concerning the venue.

    Establish a Date & Time

    When negotiating with your chosen venue, give yourself as much time as possible to allow for effective promotion and planning.

    This should be done in writing to insure no misunderstanding.

    Procure Bands & Speakers

    There are many music ministries and most of them will be more than happy to play for free and or be happy with a donation or "love offering" for their services. Don't be afraid to check out and question ministries about their beliefs. It is crucial that the Word of God be accurately conveyed and that they have a true heart to minister. Many bands have their own sound systems and are often willing to share the use of their equipment with others. This could solve a lot of shopping around for expensive sound systems and sound company's.

    We are blessed in New England to have a wonderful ministry dedicated to helping musicians and coffeehouses connect with each other. It is a very good source for finding quality music ministries: New England Christian Coffeehouses . You can also surf the New England coffeehouse circuit on the Agape's music ministry website and follow the links to the artists web pages where available.

    Gather Sponsors

    Invite sponsors to your event and recommend to them to set up tables at the event. Sponsors would be other churches and charitable organizations in your town who would be glad to have an opportunity to introduce themselves to the public. Establish a reasonable fee sufficient enough to cover costs of the event and perhaps provide a love offering to the performers. The purpose of these events is not for personal gain so any extra moneys should be distributed as love offerings to the artists, donated to charity or used to buy pizza for your hardworking volunteers!

    Promote!

    As soon as you know the who's, what's when's and where's, it's time to start promotion.

    On the "Resources" page of this site are downloadable posters, blank PSA's for radio and print media as well a links to Christian radio stations.

    Round up the Troops!

    Just as we call upon the Holy Spirit to guide us as individuals, so must we call upon our brothers and sisters for help in more earthly matters such as setup, cleanup, and most importantly having people available for answering questions of the unsaved and leading them toward salvation.
