Invite Others to Christmas at Echo
Inviting others to church can feel daunting at times. Below are some practical tips and tools you can use to invite others to Christmas at Echo.
Tips for Inviting Others
- Be Yourself
- Consider Your Circles
- Leverage Tech
- Identify a Need
Focus on inviting people from your communities outside of church, like your:
- Coworkers
- Neighbors
- Interest-based groups (e.g., book club)
- People at your gym
Digital forms of communication make it much easier to reach out to people. Consider extending your invitation in the following ways:
- During a hangout or Zoom
- Text or call
- Social media DM
- Share Echo’s social media posts (@echochurchlive on Facebook, Instagram, etc.)
A Note on Responses
If they accept, that’s great! If you’re available, attend or watch the Sunday message at the same time as the person you invited. Then check in with them afterwards on their thoughts. If they decline, don’t feel bad! Continue to establish a relationship with the person, and keep praying for them.
