Christmas Eve Worship Service Is One Of Your Greatest Outreach Opportunities

According to Thom Rainer, author of Breakout Churches and new LifeWay President, your Christmas Eve Worship service is one of your greatest outreach opportunities. He says that the most visited church worship service of the year by non-church goers is Christmas Eve. He also says that these non-church goers are looking for traditional Christmas music, traditional Christmas plays, etc.

Lifeway can to help you minister to your church family and reach out to the unchurched during the Christmas season. Here's a collection of resources to help you with the celebration of Advent (Nov. 27 - Dec. 4). The key piece of this index is called "Advent Devotions for Personal Worship," a series of twenty-eight brief devotions for the Christmas season. These are available as a complimentary download in various formats (PDF, RTF, and TXT). Add your church's contact information on the front and they are ready to hand out to your members and guests this Sunday.

You will also find basic information about the celebration of advent, children's worship ideas, and "Old Traditions, New Life: A Worship Tool for Advent." Go to this page for the tools you need to celebrate Advent.
