Even You Can Help!

"Hold on! I don't have time to read all this. I want to help right now!"

Please! If you have sermons by David Wilkerson in other languages, write us so David Wilkerson's Internet foreign language ministry teams can prepare them for viewing on the web.

We are following strict guidelines from Times Square Church, using a sample sermon template to give the sermons a uniform look and keep within the policies of the business manager of Times Square Church. He wants us to keep all sermons on this one central web site. We would be delighted to have you link to this site.

We need the work you have already done so our volunteer team members won't spend countless hours needlessly duplicating your efforts.

David Wilkerson's Internet multilingual translation ministry project is moving forward! You can see the progress at www.tscpulpitseries.org

Please feel free to copy this message and send it to others.

Here's How You Can Help

A. Prayer Support

We need volunteers who would be willing to saturate this entire project with serious prayer - people to pray for volunteers who are experiencing spiritual battles, sickness, computer, software, and Internet connection problems. Anyone involved in fontline ministry like this understands the spiritual warfare that we continually face.

Volunteers are invited to fill out our CONTACT INFO form in order to become official members of David Wilkerson's new, restricted-access, e-prayer list, dedicated solely to the prayer needs of his Internet volunteers.

To receive a copy of our CONTACT INFO form, send a blank e-mail message with the exact Subject: line as follows:

TSPS : CONTACT INFO - MULTIPLE LANGUAGE PROJECT

E-mails arriving with this exact subject line, will be automatically sent a copy of the CONTACT INFO form. When the completed CONTACT INFO is returned, subscription approval will be granted to gain access to David Wilkerson's e-prayer list.

B. Technical Needs

If you live near the Cleveland, Ohio area, here in the USA, please take time to read this request.

As volunteer webmaster for the Pulpit Series and director of the Internet ministry teams serving the multilingual web site, I experience constant computer trouble. The poor machine gets little rest. Here's how you may be able to help.

I'm looking for a technical support person who lives within driving distance of Cleveland or the Lorain, Ohio area, someone who could come here regularly, at least once a week, to keep our computer equipment running smoothly.

Your troubleshooting skills could become a great blessing to our many online subscribers and visitors. Please send us a copy of your resume. Be sure to include your experience, availability, and if you would be willing to donate your time.

C. Translation Needs

We need volunteers with language translation software - those willing to simply run the sermon text through their language translation software. The sermon text file will be e-mailed to you. Then you will run it through your software and e-mail the translation to an assigned linguist for polishing. We realize translation software is a very new idea and can really only offer a greater selection of words to the translator. Some of our translators prefer to work without translation software. That's fine.

We need volunteers to help polish language software translations. No deadlines will be involved. No pressure will be put on you. This will be a work-at-your-own-pace opportunity for worldwide ministry.

We need volunteers who have already translated any of David Wilkerson's writings into another language. The work you've already done can now reach so many more people.

D. Web Design Needs

We need volunteers to add HTML code to English and foreign sermons. If you know a foreign language and know HTML code but can't translate, we need your help adding HTML code to these foreign sermons. You'll be able to follow the example of another sermon that already has the HTML code added. No special web editor software is needed; you can accomplish this in something as simple as Windows Notepad.

If you know how to do even basic HTML, please help us out. Right now, we have a great need for your help, especially in doing the web design for Bible study questions and foreign sermons. Many of our original HTML Ministry Team members have dropped out and left us with a real need for volunteers in these areas.

We need skilled volunteers to add meta tags to our web pages to help the search engines find us.

We need volunteers skillful in creating forms to help handle the heavy feedback we receive on this web site. This web page, for example, sorely needs to be turned into an online form. We also need individuals to host the cgi-scripts for our online forms on their server.

E. Foreign Typists

We need volunteers who can type handwritten foreign translations. Please let us know if you can help in this area.

F. Miscellaneous Needs

We need volunteers who can offer old sermons for the team to use.

We need volunteers who have copies of old sermons not already posted on our web site and can scan them. Write warthen@prodigy.net to help in this area of need.

We need volunteers who can proofread these scanned sermons, character-by-character, for OCR (scanning) errors. Write warthen@prodigy.net to help in this area of need.

We need volunteers to check these web pages for faulty links.

We need volunteers who can help prepare Bible studies. I sorely need volunteers to help me pull about ten questions from each sermon for the Bible study area. If you know how to add HTML web code, that would be a plus. Otherwise, we could team you up with someone who does know HTML. For more information about this volunteer position, see:

www.tscpulpitseries.org/discuss.html

G. Public Relations

We need people willing to spread the word about this project through radio, Christian magazines and newspapers, church bulletins, e-mail, Christian bulletin boards, and by word-of-mouth.

We need volunteers to type into the computer foreign language sermons that are only in print. Right now our Arabic, Chinese and Vietnamese teams sorely need this type of help.

Remember, no deadlines will be involved. This will be a work-at-your-own-pace opportunity for worldwide ministry.

"How may I volunteer my services in one of your ministries/outreaches?"

In 1995, we had to discontinue our volunteer workers' program for a number of reasons--mainly because of the high cost of housing and the need for fully trained workers.

Beginning in 1997, we have enough trained workers who have graduated from Mt. Zion Shcool of Ministry to provide full-time workers for every area of ministry. All of our beds are completely filled. In fact, we need more beds just to provide housing for the new interns who pledge a full year to our various ministries without pay.

Through much experience, we have learned that all of our workers need to have training. The only volunteers we are now using are those who visit New York and provide their own housing. They go out on the streets and on our Raven truck, feeding the hungry and witnessing to those who sleep on the streets.
