The strategic spine for a 52-day sprint toward a full room at Desert Pastures and a diaspora watching live across five countries. This report is the executive summary over the campaign's full document set.
Eleven objectives in three tiers. Tier 1 is the reason the campaign exists. Tier 2 is the engine that makes Tier 1 happen. Tier 3 is the asset we build once and reuse every year. The three north stars are bodies in the room, eyes on the stream, and a captured audience we own.
Free registration is the proxy for intent -- a reachable list we own, independent of any algorithm, that seeds day-of reminders and future years.
Target: 5,000 free registrations by 30 Aug · 60% Ghana / 40% diasporaThe stream is a venue, not a consolation prize -- watch-hours prove the message landed.
Target: 250,000 live watch-hours (benchmark year)The organized five-country diaspora is our most efficient reach and least contested audience.
45% of impressions · 40% of registrations from diasporaA shared quote card borrows the sharer's credibility for free; the one-liners are built to travel.
Shares > 12% of reach · 500+ non-official hashtag postsA visible clock makes the event feel inevitable, not sudden. Saves are the truest anticipation signal.
Countdown-post save rate above 8%Two-way, not broadcast. A poll answered is rehearsal for showing up.
6% ER on IG/TikTok · 4% on Facebook · 2,000+ responsesPeople do not clear an evening or ride 800km for information. They come for hope they have seen work.
40+ testimony pieces · rising intent-comment rateMust-attend is not claimed, it is demonstrated -- same voice, same look, same promise, for 52 days.
Weekly consistency audit stays green · waitlist collectedFollowers gained now are the seed corn for the next campaign; TikTok is the cheapest place to grow.
+20% net across IG, TikTok, YouTube · 8–10M impressionsThis year's output becomes reusable IP so LR2027 starts at 60% done.
300+ tagged assets · 50+ evergreen templatesOne line the audience can finish for us after 52 days, a mandate that gives every post a skeleton, and three supporting messages that each own a stage of the funnel.
Four words, ownable at the root -- the ministry's name, the title of Pastor Anaba's book, and scriptural: "And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity" (1 Corinthians 13:13, KJV). It is the sign-off, the caption closer, the end card, the pinned comment.
Turning sinners from darkness to light.
Teaching the nations to observe the commandments of Christ.
Touching the world with the love of God.
Training believers in the work of ministry and godly living.
Transforming individuals and communities through social interventions.
Eleven named personas so the team writes to a real person, not a demographic. Pick the persona before you write the post -- a post for everyone is a post for no one.
The scrolling young adult -- raised in church, coasting, quietly bored of it.
TikTokThe university student -- KNUST fellowship, hungry, broke, moved by her group.
Instagram · WhatsAppThe young professional -- guards his leave, decides by logistics and substance.
Instagram · YouTubeThe married couple -- two small children, deciding together if it works.
FacebookThe parent building a family altar -- wants her children around real faith.
Facebook · WhatsAppThe pastor seeking impartation -- comes to be filled so he can pour out.
YouTube · FacebookThe organizer -- runs the women's ministry, the person who fills a bus.
WhatsAppThe person in crisis searching for hope -- found the page by accident.
Facebook · YouTubeThe first-timer -- a clip stopped her scroll; knows nothing about EAM.
TikTok · InstagramThe diaspora watcher -- London / Toronto / Columbus, homesick, livestream-first.
Instagram · YouTube · WhatsAppThe volunteer -- Bolgatanga local who would set out chairs at 5 AM.
WhatsApp · InstagramSeven master pillars with fixed weekly weightings that sum to 100%. Every scheduled post is tagged to one pillar, one funnel stage, one supporting message, and at least one persona. A post that cannot be tagged does not ship.
The engine room -- quote cards, one-liner clips, scripture reels, mandate carousels.
Story earns the 800km ride -- testimony films, healing posts, couples' stories.
The ARC culture play -- setup, prayer teams, the 5 AM media crew.
A visible clock plus archive proof from LR2021–2025.
Persona-targeted reassurance -- family, youth, and leadership lanes.
The un-copyable north, and the five-country diaspora homesick for it.
The two-way lane -- polls, question boxes, prayer-point prompts.
During the seven event days the weekly mix is suspended: The Word rises to 40%, Heritage to 15%, as production pivots to capturing the room in near-real time.
Named content franchises the audience learns to expect on a rhythm, so returning becomes a habit rather than a decision.
53 recurring series span the daily heartbeat, countdown engines, the teacher and the man, the place and the pilgrimage, the mandate in motion, and the diaspora. Twelve load-bearing franchises:
Today is 10 July 2026 -- 52 days out. This is a sprint, not a slow build. Weeks 1–2 are a catch-up blitz that lands everything the canonical six-month model would have done, then anticipation, conversion, conference, and harvest.
Foundation, assets, registration launch. Nothing else works until registration is live and tested end to end.
Meet the man, meet the mandate. Story before selling, first-timer intros, partners and campuses activated, first conversion ads.
The rhythm is set; the room is filling. Weekday series becomes appointment content; testimony wave; teaching threads.
Widen the room, reach across the water. Scale reach, open the diaspora lane, promote the livestream as a product. Daily volume rises to 2–4 posts.
Decide, and plan to be present. Full travel-and-logistics set, consecration teaser, countdown graphics begin.
No new ideas -- repeat what works, remove the last friction. Daily countdown, best testimonies re-run, full practical guide.
Seven days, set apart. Countdown to Day 1, Consecration Service framing, livestream primed with converted diaspora times.
The room is open. Fourteen sessions at 9 AM and 5 PM streamed live on YouTube and Facebook. The team shifts from promotion to live coverage, testimony capture, and feeding the stream. The Consecration Service opens the week.
The event ended; the relationship begins. Highlight film, testimony harvest, disciple new believers, tag the archive, save the warm list for LR2027.
Ten platforms, ten distinct jobs, one Ghana-primary and diaspora-second audience. Same campaign, native to each feed. Two clocks always: Ghana is GMT; the diaspora slot is roughly 18:00–20:00 GMT.
Paid media reaches strangers; partnerships reach people through someone they already trust -- and solve logistics at the same time as demand. Nine partner classes, each with an ask, an offer, an owner, and a referral code. Attendance and encounter only, never donations.
Four Sundays of pulpit announcements; a travel captain per congregation. Start with the Fountain Gate Chapel network -- the warmest yes.
Target: 30–60 churchesKNUST, UG Legon, UCC, UDS, Bolga Technical. Fellowship shares, campus reps, coordinated student trips.
Target: 5–8 active repsTiered mega / mid / micro. Never pay for testimony -- offer access and honour. Peer-to-peer asks for the mega tier.
Mega · Mid · MicroEarned interviews (the pharmacist story is newsworthy) and regional radio airtime + a conference-week live cross.
Upper East radio firstA guest slot for Pastor Anaba or a senior voice on Ghanaian and diaspora Christian shows -- deep, quotable, livestream-first audiences.
Target: 2–4 episodesWorship leaders and gospel artists to minister at a session where fitting and bring their following to tune in live.
Target: 2–3 ministeringLodging, transport, and food vendors listed in the official travel guide -- solving logistics and building local goodwill.
Vetted list per categoryEAM's USA, Canada, UK, Germany, Netherlands offices as five ready-made regional teams -- watch parties + converted local times.
5 offices activatedOne champion per congregation fills a bus to Bolgatanga under a unique referral code -- turning "too far" into "we are going together".
Target: 20–50 captainsEleven participation mechanics that turn passive followers into people who post, invite, testify, pray, and show up -- all on native tools and self-hosted forms, no paid engagement software.
One deeply personal prompt anyone can answer. People post a short vertical video finishing the line "What turned me was...", tag @eastwoodanabaministries, use #LoveRevolution2026, and challenge two friends. The reward that drives entries is a re-share on the official channels. Launches Day-30 (1 August), feeds live during conference week.
Two tags carry the campaign and appear together on nearly every post. Everything else is situational -- relevance beats volume.
Rotate 1–3 secondary tags per post, never the whole pile:
A bank of ready-to-shoot ideas -- ten formats, one hundred each. Captured with tags during production so LR2027 starts at 60% done.
content ideas across ten format files -- 100 Reels, 100 TikToks, 100 Shorts, 100 Stories, 100 Carousels, 100 Facebook posts, 100 Tweets, 100 Quote graphics, 100 Prayer graphics, and 100 Scripture graphics.
The locked, on-brand templates the design team builds before launch -- black field, gradient on key words only, white letterspaced caps. Tap to check items off; progress saves on this device.
Three north stars only -- everything else is diagnostic and exists to move one of them. Every number comes from a native, free surface aggregated into one shared sheet. No paid dashboard tool.
Unique people physically present across the seven days, plus peak single-session headcount from usher tallies.
Full venue on peak evenings; record vs prior LR yearsUnique viewers across YouTube + Facebook Live over the week, logged nightly from YouTube Studio and Facebook Live.
Meet or beat last year; +25–50% via paid tune-in + watch partiesCompleted free registrations, email + WhatsApp captured, from the registration DB as the single source of truth.
2,000–4,500 at Standard budget + partner referralsThe weekly scorecard. One screen, copied each Monday: cumulative and weekly registrations, blended CPL (target under ~$1.50), reach, landing-page-to-registration conversion, partner-attributed registrations, and the best post's shares / saves / comments. Diagnostics -- reach, retention, shares, follower growth, mobilization -- exist only to explain a lagging north star. Cadence discipline: weekly during the sprint, daily during conference week. A metric no one reviews on a schedule is not a metric.
A campaign document set of roughly 33 markdown files across eighteen numbered folders, plus a free registration app and the locked template system. This report is the executive summary over those files.
The registration app. A Next.js free-registration flow captures email and WhatsApp only -- never money, never a giving CTA. It is the single source of truth for the north-star registration count and the engine behind the "Bring One" referral codes and every WhatsApp opt-in. This report sits on top of the full document set as the one-screen executive summary the media team reads first.
