Historical two day mission

Global Media Outreach also known as GMO, on online Christian ministry, created a challenge to reach a million unique viewers to their site in one day.

According to GMO, COO, Mark Weimer – on Thursday, March 24, 2011 they hit the one million mark and over 100,000 people made a spiritual decision to accept Christ as their Lord and Savior. Then on Friday March 25th, a partner encouraged them to try to reach 1.5 million people.  By 11 p.m. that night they had over 1.5 million visitors, with an additional 144,000 indicating a decision to be a Christ follower.
