Perhaps there isn't, but near Christians, there's supposed to be. This is one of the tenets of the faith.
And yet another is to evangelize with the goal of conversion.
Yes, but... Making service conditional on listening to evangelism is very bad evangelism and very bad service.

The mere fact that people need to eat, and people need to shit, doesn't mean people should eat shit. I think trying to combine service and evangelism is subject to the same problem.
