OLD BRIDGE, N.J., June 1, 2015 /Christian Newswire/ -- A megachurch in New Jersey is launching a social media outreach on Sunday, June 14th at 7:00 p.m. online at http://tiny.cc/45degrees.

The outreach consists of getting multiple church congregations to simultaneously share a video link that will present the gospel and direct local young people to a youth rally in Ocean Grove, New Jersey at 2:00 p.m. on Friday, June 26th. The youth rally is part of Bridgefest, a multi-church beach festival and concert that draws thousands of people each year.

"So many church leaders are wondering how to reach the next generation." said Youth Pastor Alan Kahn. "Pew Research Center has shown that 81% of youth 12-17 are on social media, yet many churches don’t know how to leverage technology to reach them. We hope that our social media blast will help others see the possibilities."
