Jobsite Outreach

Want to implement a powerful outreach program during your building project? BGW trains each client to effectively implement a Ministry of Construction for workers on the jobsite. The unsaved members of this industry desperately need to know God and your example can direct those people to Him. This may be the only gospel display the construction community involved with your project ever experience.

Ministry of Construction

As your building project progresses, members dedicate the land, the future facility and their time to the Lord. The jobsite becomes the central location for evangelism and relationship building opportunities. “We had some ongoing relationships with a couple of the construction workers,” said Pastor Reinhard. “One of them in particular, he has gotten engaged since the time of the construction here two years ago. He asked that I perform the wedding for he and his fiancé, so I'm looking forward to doing that in the sanctuary that he helped build and that I helped build.”

On BGW jobsites, Christians are reaching out and serving the construction workers, tradesmen, supervisors and managers. Many Christian churches and schools use the Ministry of Construction to effectively display the gospel to everyone involved in their construction process—many have experienced great results. 

BGW founding architect Dan Cook says, “Before I was saved, I was the architect and general contractor on a number of churches. When I came to know the Lord, I realized not one of those churches had ever shared the salvation message. They had missed so many opportunities to reach out to me and the workers on those job sites—and we all needed the Lord.”
