Special Projects:
PROJECT: Spartanburg
County
 In the fall of 2006, the
Spartanburg Seventh-day Adventist Church stepped out in faith to sponsor a
Steps to Christ mailing to 113,758 homes in their county, inspired by the
mailings recently completed in the San Francisco Bay Area. The church, with the
help of the Carolina Conference, was able to raise the funds for the project in
an unprecedented 2˝ weeks. The Path to Peace, the mass-mailing edition of
Steps to Christ that would be mailed to every home, was customized with the
county name and landmark images from the county seat of Spartanburg to better
help connect readers with the book they would be receiving in their mail.

PROJECT: San Francisco (Watch
the video)
 April
18, 1906:
The city of San Francisco was destroyed by a powerful
earthquake and the fires that followed. April
2006:
The city of San Francisco was shaken by an
even more powerful force: the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
This was a Heaven-sent opportunity for the churches in the
greater San Francisco area to take the Three Angels' Message to every home in this great city
on the 100th anniversary of the Great San Francisco Earthquake.
This faith venture reached 414,445 homes with one of the most powerful
resources we have for evangelizing the world—the printed page.
Throughout the month of April 2006, a special edition of On The Edge of Time
titled,
What's
Next? Are You Prepared?. Every home
was given the opportunity to hear a clear presentation of the gospel of present
truth and respond to the many free offers included in each book.
PROJECT: San Francisco set in motion the transforming power of the truth in
thousands of lives, the results of which will only be fully known in eternity.
From the Pacific Union Recorder, "Mailing Shakes San
Francisco."

PROJECT: Hurricane
Katrina
 On Monday, August 29,
2005, Hurricane Katrina made landfall as a
Category Four hurricane, submerging much of the City of New Orleans and
obliterating the Mississippi coast. In the aftermath, hundreds of thousands weree
displaced from their homes and thousands of lives lost. Property damage was in the billions.
Although there was a tragic loss of life, God remembered mercy. Thousands were
spared. Recovery from this catastrophic storm continues.
From
November 9, 2005 to June 22, 2006, PROJECT: Steps to Christ
mailed out 575,700 Path to Peace booklets to much of the
Gulf Coast affected by Hurricane Katrina. 2,843 families have responded
as of
06/08/2010.
Note: New Orleans did not receive any
mailings during this campaign as most post offices in the city
were not receiving any standard bulk mail.

2005, PROJECT: Steps to Christ saturated all of Washington DC with a mailing of
Steps to Christ in conjunction with the Amazing Fact's Prophecy Code

the surrounding communities in Maryland and Virginia. Over 1,340 people
responded to this mailing.
