Last Saturday I organised a mall outreach as part of my Church’s outreach activities for the JAAL campaign. James, a friend of mine, had made a TV advertising survey which we used as both an information gathering exercise and also an opportunity to meet people that might be open to hearing the gospel. I had never used surveys in personal street evangelism before so I was keen to try this approach. We stood in the mall with clipboards in our arms next to a table filled with gospel tracts and a bowl of chocolates for anyone to enjoy.
I found it a lot slower than doing walk up evangelism, but it did lead to at least 2 good conversations about Christianity in the space of 2 hrs. (I can normally talk to 5-7 people in 1hr of walk up.) One of the people I talked to had a Church background and was quite impressed by the gospel as I spoke and exclaimed in amazement that she had never understood why Jesus died on the cross.
We had a roster where members of my Church came along to help out. I was greatly encouraged to see that each Christian who came along had an opportunity to share the gospel with another person.
"...I can't think of any other real purpose for which God has Christians on this planet other than to help bring his chosen ones into his kingdom through the proclamation of the gospel..." 
"...I have also been transformed in my thinking by the WOTM evangelism teaching and wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone. I enjoy sound doctrine and the occasional foray into apologetics." 
"...I have always desired to see people become Christians... I now know that I am being highly effective when I witness to friends and strangers because they are hearing the biblical gospel that can save them."
