For the children who live too far to go to the Sunday School services, they have wandering trucks that stop in areas of the city and where from they produce Sidewalk Sunday School. Metro Ministries conceived and pioneered the concept of Sidewalk Sunday School. Now duplicated across the world by the thousands of people they have trained since 1980, this program has been proven to be an efficient and effective method [citation needed] of reaching large numbers of children and families on a personal level. The organization was established in 1980 by Bill Wilson.
