Our mission is to fulfill the Great Commission by training believers to become Fishers of Men, ensuring that evangelism doesn’t stop at conversion but continues into discipleship and lifelong spiritual growth.
Our History
Founded by Dr. Rocellia Johnson in 1979, NEM has been a pioneer in evangelism training for over 40 years. The curriculum has impacted hundreds of churches nationwide, ensuring that evangelism doesn’t stop at conversion but continues into discipleship and community building.
At N.E.M., we are driven by the Great Commission as outlined in Matthew 28:19-20 (KJV):
“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”
We Welcome You!
A Message from Our Director
Welcome to the National Evangelism Movement, Inc. We are so blessed to have you take a closer look at our website and join us in a new era of Ministry and Evangelism. In “such a time as this”, the NATIONAL EVANGELISM MOVEMENT has yet again shifted our paradigm. Guided by the Holy Spirit, we’ve expanded our already vibrant curriculum, and we have increased our teaching and administrative staff, because we have you in mind!
God’s mandate to us is the same: to go and share the gospel. Our basic tool is still the same, the Holy Bible and we are still compelled to draw men and women with a passion for Christ to come and join the GREATEST crusade there is: Soul Winning!!!
So as you explore this website our hope and prayer is that you will catch the vision and come join us in a vital work whose goal is the perfecting of the saints of God, by doing the work of MINISTRY!! Our trained facilitators will show you how.
Please register for our upcoming events and join us in equipping the saints. You will never be the same!

Partnering with and Supporting Pastors
At NEM, we recognize the vital role that pastors play in leading and equipping their congregations. To support them in this calling, we offer the Pastors Plenary, an exclusive initiative designed to provide pastors with the tools, strategies, and encouragement they need to lead effective evangelism efforts in their churches.
What is the Pastors Plenary?
The Pastors Plenary is a specialized gathering for pastors, church leaders, and ministry heads who are committed to strengthening their evangelism and discipleship efforts. This plenary session provides:
- Exclusive training on evangelism strategies tailored for church leaders.
- Biblical foundations and best practices for effective church-wide discipleship.
- Encouragement, mentorship, and collaboration with fellow pastors and evangelism leaders.
- Practical tools for integrating evangelism into the DNA of the church.
- Opportunities to network with other church leaders and exchange insights.
How to Get Involved
Pastors and church leaders can take part in the Pastors Plenary by:
Evangelism Workshops
Attending our Quarterly Evangelism Workshops, where the plenary session is held.
Support the Movement
We invite individuals, churches, and organizations to partner with NEM in empowering pastors and church leaders through the Pastors Plenary. Your support can help provide essential resources, materials, and training opportunities for those on the frontlines of evangelism.
