Tips for Summer Outreach

The temperature is rising, which means service opportunities are increasing too. Make use of this weather change for outreach in an outdoor public place such as the park—where the number of people has very likely risen as well.

There are numerous opportunities for servant evangelism at the park. Here are some ideas.

Soft Drink Giveaways. Fill coolers with cold drinks. Create invitation cards to your church. (You will likely need water resistant holders.) Put these under the soda tab or on the side of the water bottle. As people pass, ask: "Hi, would you like water or a soda?"

Freshen-up Packs. It's difficult to wash hands at the park. A moist towelette is a practical small gift. Package the towelette with a few with mints and make a "freshen-up" pack. Attach your invitation card to your church.

Flower Seeds. Hand out flower seeds to celebrate the warm weather. Some companies offer the option of having your church name printed on the outside of the packet.
