We are all on a journey bound for heaven. But before going there, we have a mission to do. To make disciples of Jesus Christ who live as His loving witnesses and proclaim to all people the everlasting gospel of the Three Angels’ Messages in preparation for His soon return. The servant of the Lord said, “The work of God in this earth can never be finished until the men and women comprising our church membership rally to the work and unite their effort with those of ministers and church officers” Testimonies for the Church, Volume 9, page 116.

Everyone can do something to hasten the coming of Jesus! “We have no time to lose. Invite your neighbors and friends to this journey that will change a life. Get Involved! It is a world-church evangelistic thrust.

Total Member Involvement is a full-scale, world-church evangelistic thrust that involves every member, every church, every administrative entity, every type of public outreach ministry, personal and institutional outreach.

What Can I do? Everyone can do something to hasten the coming of Jesus! “We have no time to lose. Every moment is golden.” You can:

  • Pray for the advancement of the Gospel in hard-to-reach areas. Pray for fortitude on behalf of workers who are currently serving. Pray that God will show you how you can work in His vineyard.
  • Support the broadcast of MJWG2 so their work can continue over the airwaves.
  • Continue to invite friends and family to watch MJWG2 every night at home, church, and other venues.
  • Ask for work sheets to share for participants to answer and gain more knowledge about the nightly presentations. 
  • Get involved in your care group and do whatever you can to support outreach activities.
  • Sign up to be a Digital Missionary Volunteer (DMV) who works to support MJWG2 broadcasts through your fingertips.
  • Cultivate genuine friendships with participants and nurture them.

We Have No Time to Lose. “The work of God in this earth can never be finished until the men and women comprising our church membership rally to the work and unite their effort with those of ministers and church officers” Testimonies for the Church, Volume 9, page 116.
