Visitation Agenda

Some important questions that may be asked:

• What do you think is the main reason for which you remained in the church, following Jesus up to now?
• Is there some area of your spiritual life in which you think you need some improvement?
• Is there a special prayer request you have that you'd like us to pray for now?

Spiritual Inventory

During the visit, you may say something like this:

The Holy Convocation is a program which leads to Revival and Reformation in preparation for Jesus’ second coming. At this very moment ____ pastors are visiting the church members of ____ churches in this region, conducting a Spiritual Inventory or stock-take.

Taking stock helps us assess if everything is in order, and we will do the same with the Spiritual Inventory. During this stock-take, I will ask you some questions about your spiritual life, but you will not be answering me. You will have private communion with the Holy Spirit, and I will do the same. All of us are in need of this personal spiritual inventory, and we, visitors (or pastors), are no exception.
