Easter Outreach

Thought I would pass on an outreach resource for this coming Easter.  Two years ago, Crossway put together Christmas packets that included a New Testament, tract, customizable invitation, and bag.  Our church used them this past Christmas, adding some home made cookies and going through our small town caroling.  We also encouraged church families to deliver them to their neighbors or co-workers.

Crossway now has Easter packets with the same components plus an audio New Testament CD.  Our church is planning to hand them out to neighbors around the church, as well as to families that come to our annual kids Easter Egg Hunt.  If you are interested, you can find out more info here.
