WHAT IS EPIC?
EPIC is a focused outreach plan that enables local churches to help students create an environment to share the gospel with friends at school. As this strategy takes form, Christian students will initiate and lead a Christian club at their school. EPIC is an acronym that is followed each month. So each month, the club will take a club meeting to Equip (Christian students understand how to share the gospel), Prepare (their personal faith story), Invite (peers with the opportunity to hear the gospel) and Connect (students share about their churches).
These student-led clubs operate under the guidelines of the Equal Access Act. This effort is focused on outreach, with a plan to incorporate students who are reached at school into local churches, including your local church. Each club should reflect the personality and giftedness of the students who lead club meetings and the youth worker who guides them.
Follow-up
Definition: [verb] To maintain contact with (a person) so as to monitor the effects of earlier activities or treatments. The act or an instance of following up, as to further an end or review new developments.
Two thoughts on follow-up:
1. Why do everything else if you are not going to follow up?
2. Student-led, student-initiated follow-up.
We offer an EPIC Manual and a weekly toolkit for student leaders to use for those who have adult coaches and sponsors who have been vetted and trained.
