Thousands around the country are putting up “Jesus 2020” yard signs across America to remind people how much we need Jesus.

“People need Jesus with everything that’s going on,” Joyce Hubbard, one of the Jesus 2020 co-organizers, told Fox News in an interview. “He’s the only one that we can count on. He’s the one that keeps his promises. He’s already the winner.”

Hubbard and her friend, Martha Sikes, came up with the idea at their small church when members of the congregation were confined to their homes because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Their hope is to spark a revival of hope in a climate of despair.

“If everyone would just focus on Jesus right now, everything would just fall into place, and we wouldn’t have the problems we have,” Hubbard said. “He’s the only way.”

According to Fox News, more than 5,000 signs have shipped out to California, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, and other states, all ordered from the JESUS 2020 facebook page.

“We don’t have to be some megachurch. All it takes is a spark, and we want to set fires everywhere,” Hubbard said. “We want Jesus’s name out there.”

Hubbard is excited by the traction the movement has gained, and wants people to know this is not a fundraiser but a ministry.

“It’s been awesome! It’s uplifted people so much,” she said. “People are just looking for something to cling onto. Not the signs itself, but just Jesus. I mean that’s what we need.”
