<Use this time to develop specific needs in your area that your church/ministry are trying to meet>  (ex. As you read through the list of common problems, I’m sure you’re thinking that these problems exist in every country, and you are absolutely right. <List some of the problems you've seen in your local community> People try so many things to fill the emptiness they feel in their lives.)

Communicate possible reasons for problems. However, make sure these are factual and believable.

Of course, as you and I know, only a relationship with Jesus Christ can fill the void that is in each person’s life. That’s why I feel very strongly and deeply about reaching out to people in <location> through our church plant, showing them God’s love and forgiveness through Jesus Christ. We desire to help them see and know the hope and joy Christ has to offer through both words, and through serving our community. ...<Possible short testimony or story>

Thanks so much for your questions. I am so excited to be a part of this ministry... <Cast vision one last time before asking for partnership> (ex. "Just like we were able to see a change in Dietrich's life through our missions trip, we want to be there for the thousands others like Dietrich who need to hear the good news of Jesus in <city>)

The Need for Partnership

But Mr. Jones, we can’t do this alone. Because we are Reliant. We are Reliant on the Lord for everything. And we are Reliant on people like you to team up with us in <location> to make these things possible. <People group> can’t afford to support the ministry of <church/organization>. Some can barely afford to live. We need others who believe in us and our call to reach <people group>, like those in the city of <location>.

Romans 10:14 states, ‘How can they call upon Him in whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without a preacher? And how can one preach unless he is sent?’ At <church>, we’re convinced of God’s call and are willing to do our part, but we need others on our ministry team to make this ministry happen.

Let me give you an analogy from Exodus 17. Maybe you remember the story. Moses, Aaron and Hur were overlooking a battle between the Amalekites and Israel. When Moses had his hands raised Israel would begin to prevail. But when his arms dropped from being tired, Israel would start to lose. Aaron and Hur, seeing that he was weak, held Moses arms and ultimately Israel won.

Who won the war? The soldiers? Moses? Aaron and Hur? It took a team working together to see victory. We see a team as a partnership that can make a difference in <location>.

Mr. Jones, let me tell you how you can help and be part of the team.

As I mentioned during our phone call, there are four ways we have often received help in our ministry. Some people are in a position to volunteer time, either directly in ministry or by assisting behind the scenes.

Secondly, we need true intercessors who will commit to praying regularly for Reliant, <organization/church,> and our ministry in <location>.

Another way we’ve been helped is, just as Mr. Smith suggested I get in touch with you thinking you might share our concern for <location>, there may be others you know who would love to hear about our ministry.

Lastly, a regular way we’ve been helped is through the generous giving of others. I’d like to ask you to consider giving to Reliant to partner with us in this way.
