Evangelism Message from Council President (4-16-10):
To Pastor, Youth and Education;
We had a great meeting with the new evangelism/missions team and had a
speaker with us from the Synod. One great spirit filled idea from the
evening was evangelizing thru events that are important and open the door to
people in exciting ways. Pastor Susan mentioned that VBS is a great tool.
Parents are aware of the programming and it is a great outreach as families
typically get involved with church to help with their children's walk and
education with the Lord.
This is where I need your help. We could use a flyer for VBS that could be
handed out to children and families. We are thinking door to door, 4H groups
in our church, put up in community. We have a great new copier and some
creative minds. We are going to put a map up at a church and want to
identify some areas within our community and where our congregation lives to
visit door to door to share the word. We could use volunteers and youth to
help with this as community service. Please ask parents in Sunday school and
confirmation if they live in neighborhoods where there are younger kids that
we could visit or make sure they mark where they live on this map that will
be posted at church. Thanks for your help, Blessings on your day.
SUMMARY;
FLYER: To hand out and post to community
LOCATIONS: Help us locate hot spots for youth within congregation and
community
VOLUNTEERS: Identify some volunteers youth and adult that can help by
visiting with groups or neighborhoods
We have some excited people on the team that would like to see this happen.
