While it is true that God gifts some for ministry as evangelists, He calls all believers to be His witnesses and provides them with both the power to witness and a powerful message. Every evangelist is called to be a witness, but only a few witnesses are called to the vocational ministry of an evangelist. Just as each Christian, regardless of spiritual gift or ministry, is to love others, so each believer is to evangelize whether or not his or her gift is that of evangelist.

Church Council

A man was in the hospital recovering from a bypass operation. A member of
his Church's Council came to visit & said that he brought greetings from
the entire Council and their wishes that he should recover soon and live a
long and healthy life.

The man thanked him and said that was very nice.

He was somewhat taken aback when the visitor said, "It's more than 'nice'.
It was an official resolution... passed by a vote of 14 to 7".
