You can give securely through danielziedins.com (via Stripe), or partner with Katie and Daniel's missionary work through E3 Canada — see the Support section for both options.

Question 9

Can I ask for prayer?

Accepted Answer

Yes — genuinely. Email Daniel.Ziedins@ThyKingdom.net or reply to any Inner Circle email and share what you're walking through. Daniel and Katie read these and pray over them. You matter, and so does what you're carrying.

Question 10

How do I stay updated on what God is doing through this mission?

Question 11

Do Daniel and Katie Ziedins minister together?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Daniel and Katie minister as one team from Hamilton, Ontario — street outreach, Jesus Festival gatherings, and family life under the same King. They teach that marriage and ministry are not two competing callings. Read more at danielziedins.com/blog/marriage-and-ministry-as-one-team.

Question 12

Why does Jesus Festival worship in public parks?

Accepted Answer

Jesus said in John 12:32 that if He is lifted up, He will draw all people to Himself. Jesus Festival takes worship into parks in Hamilton and Niagara so the city can encounter Jesus without having to walk into a building first. Learn more at jesusfestival.ca and danielziedins.com/blog/why-we-take-worship-into-the-park.

Question 13

How far in advance should I book Daniel Ziedins to speak?

Accepted Answer

Four to twelve weeks is ideal so travel, family, and Friday night outreach in Hamilton can be planned well. Last-minute requests are still welcome when the calendar allows. Submit dates at danielziedins.com/speaking. Honoraria and travel vary by gathering — the goal is partnership, not a barrier.

Question 14

What happens on Love on Hamilton Friday nights?

Accepted Answer

Every Friday night in Hamilton, Daniel and Katie lead street outreach with meals, prayer, and presence — rain or shine, for over twelve years. It is simple, consistent, and open to local volunteers. Details at LoveonHamilton.com, KD-Ziedins.com, and danielziedins.com/blog/love-on-hamilton-friday-night-rhythm.

Question 15

How does Daniel apply Matthew 6:33 to business, not just devotion?

Accepted Answer

Seek first the Kingdom means the King sits in the middle of work — truth in the pitch, integrity in payroll, and refusing shortcuts that cost your witness. Read danielziedins.com/blog/matthew-633-at-work-not-just-in-devotions.

Question 16

What happens after Jesus Festival — how do you follow up?

Accepted Answer

A park gathering is not the finish line. After Jesus is lifted up, the team captures names with dignity, prays within 24 hours, offers one next step, and walks with people through meals, church, and Friday night outreach. Read danielziedins.com/blog/after-the-festival-how-we-follow-up.

Question 17

How should I pray for my city before going out on outreach?

Accepted Answer

Ask the Lord of the harvest to send workers (Matthew 9:38), pray for those in authority (1 Timothy 2:1–4), and name streets, households, and people — not just a generic 'the city.' Then go. A field guide is at danielziedins.com/blog/how-to-pray-for-your-city-before-you-go.

Question 18

How do I find an outreach group near me?

Accepted Answer

Go to Evangelize.World to find a group on the map or start one in your city. The active mission is 100 consistent outreach groups anywhere and everywhere, powered by Love on The World. A free 30-day plan is at danielziedins.com/outreach-starter-kit, and the mission briefing is at danielziedins.com/missions.

Question 19

What should I bring to my first Friday night street outreach?

Accepted Answer

Wear weather-ready clothes and comfortable shoes. Bring a charged phone, a bottle of water, and a willing heart. The team usually covers meals and extras — presence matters more than a perfect kit. Come with someone if you can. Read danielziedins.com/blog/what-to-expect-at-your-first-friday-night-outreach and details at LoveonHamilton.com.

Question 20

How can my church partner with the next Jesus Festival?

Accepted Answer

Serve, invite, and pray. Churches host teams, lead worship, run kids zones, and follow up with people who encounter Jesus in the park. Email Daniel.Ziedins@ThyKingdom.net or use danielziedins.com/speaking. Watch JesusFestival.ca for the next gathering dates.

Question 21

What is OikosMap and KingdomBase?

The Church already lives in every neighbourhood and stays after the cameras leave. Learn more at kingdomresponse.com and danielziedins.com/blog/kingdom-response-when-disaster-hits-the-church-goes-first.

Question 23

What is Kingdom AI on danielziedins.com?

Accepted Answer

Question 24

How soon should I follow up after sharing Jesus with someone?

Accepted Answer

Within 24 hours. Write down their name and one thing they shared before you leave, pray for them by name, send one short message, and offer one clear next step — a meal, a Friday night, or a church they can actually reach. Read danielziedins.com/blog/follow-up-within-24-hours.

Question 25

Can I reach people without joining a street team?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your table is already a mission field. Invite one or two people, feed them, ask how they really are, and put a second meal on the calendar. Map the people already in your life at OikosMap.com. Read danielziedins.com/blog/your-table-is-already-a-mission-field.

Question 26

How do I pray with someone on the street?

Accepted Answer

Ask if you can pray for about a minute. If they say yes, thank God for them by name, ask for the one thing they told you, bless them with peace, and stop. If they say no, honour it. The pocket prayer is at danielziedins.com/blog/how-to-pray-with-someone-in-sixty-seconds.

Question 27

What if someone says they are fine?

Accepted Answer

Honour it. Ask one gentler question, then stop digging. You can bless them without their story, and come back next week. Read danielziedins.com/blog/when-someone-says-theyre-fine.

Question 28

How do I share my testimony in two minutes?

Accepted Answer

Three beats: what life felt like before Jesus, how He met you, and one thing that is different now. Ask permission, say His name, and stop. The frame is at danielziedins.com/blog/tell-your-story-in-two-minutes.

Question 29

How should a team debrief after street outreach?

Accepted Answer

Ten minutes somewhere warm. Thank God for one specific thing, name the people you met, choose who gets a follow-up, keep one wisdom for next week, pray, and go home. Read danielziedins.com/blog/how-to-debrief-a-friday-night.

Question 30

How do I start a conversation about Jesus?

Accepted Answer

Say your name, ask theirs, and ask one question about their night. Listen until they finish. Then ask if you can pray or share the gospel in a minute. The frame is at danielziedins.com/blog/the-first-thirty-seconds.

Question 31

How do I invite someone to outreach or church?

Accepted Answer

One sentence. Name the place, the time, and what happens — food, prayer, people. Ask once: Want to come with me? Then stop. Read danielziedins.com/blog/invite-them-once.

Question 32

How do I explain the gospel simply?

Accepted Answer

Use four sentences: God made them and loves them, sin is the break, Jesus died and rose, and they can trust Him today. Ask permission, say it slowly, and let them answer. The lines are at danielziedins.com/blog/the-gospel-in-four-sentences.
