The Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches' millennium project initiative called 'AD' has been gaining great interest all over Britain. Recently 300,000 of the colourful 32-page 'AD' booklets were printed by Day One Publications and 200,000 have already been sold.
The AD booklet has been very carefully researched and written by the Rev. Brian Edwards and Dr. Ian Shaw of the International Christian College, Glasgow. It gives a potted history of the great benefits of Christianity to Britain over the last 2,000 years. The aim is to help raise public awareness of the great benefits of the gospel and true Christianity to the people of our land.
Churches using AD
Churches are making good use of the project in a variety of ways. They are giving them to their congregations to encourage further interest in our great Christian heritage. Some plan to use the material in their Sunday schools, youth groups and other areas of church life. Ministers are planning a series of children's talks based on the information in the AD booklet. There are churches who have bought enough copies of the AD booklet to distribute to every home in their locality. A free of charge gospel insert is supplied with the booklets for use in evangelism. Some churches are going to give booklets away at flower festivals, craft fairs, village fetes and to holidaymakers. Some members of churches are getting their own supply of AD booklets and distributing them among their friends and neighbours. Others have already bought enough to send out with their Christmas cards.*
