Statewide Events
In April, 2008, Operation Inasmuch events were conducted
simultaneously by 990 churches in North Carolina.
There were Inasmuch events in all 100 counties of the
state. This mega-event was the result of a collaboration
between Operation Inasmuch, Inc. and the Baptist State
Convention of North Carolina which included two years
of planning, promotion and training.
"This was the boldest event of its kind ever undertaken,"
says David Crocker, Exec. Dir. of Operation Inasmuch.
"There has never before been such saturation and
widespread, hands-on ministry conducted in a simultaneous
way."
The best estimates of the results of this statewide
Inasmuch are that . . .
- 990 churches were involved
- about 40,000 people participated
- about 5,000 compassion ministry projects were conducted
- about 300,000 people were served
- 242 people made decisions to follow Christ as a
direct result of these ministry projects
Operation Inasmuch has documented the planning process
for the statewide Inasmuch event so it may be replicated
elsewhere. OIAM, Inc. is able and eager to collaborate
with other networks to conduct similar mega-events in
other states or territories. Contact David Crocker
