My Regular Spring Announcement

I know you are either on Spring Break or it is just around the corner, but put this in the back of your mind for after Spring Break.

What is something you have always wanted to try, but were afraid to?  Or you don't want to try it, but others have suggested it....maybe even your students have suggested....and even begged you to do it?

The MOST OBVIOUS thing is to experiment with your large group event.

Should you try a different time?

What about a different night?

What about a different location?

What about two worship events in one night due to crowding?  There could be one at 7:00 and one at 9:00 or 9:30. Or, do the same event and Bible study on two different nights.

What about your church's College Sunday School?  Different approach?  A Breakfast of some sort that you might do each week?  Student led classes?  Guy classes, Girl classes? 

Think REALLY hard!  What is something different you might experiment with at least once.  You might prove it will not work....OR......it might just be something that would take your ministry to a different level!

Trying it before school is out would give you the chance to make the adjustment for the fall, if it works.  Plus, it would help you see what adjustments or tweaks would need to be made.

Think EXTRA HARD!  What could it be?

What about asking your leadership team to brainstorm and come up with something new and different to try?  Or throw out some options and let them pick one.

WARNING:  As I always say, if it is something way out on the edge, make sure your supervisor is in the know.

I would LOVE to hear from you, if you try something....let me know what and how it went....and if you still have a job.

What is your church giving it's high school grads or what is your ministry using as a giveaway to incoming freshmen this summer?  Or, what are you going to use for a Freshmen Welcome Event? Check out " College Minister's Tips for College Freshmen. Amazon.com/dp/B0GFLFNX98
