A Bright Idea from Epworth UMC:

Fishy business -- with placemats

 

Here's a great idea for your next summer fish fry. Epworth UMC, Indianapolis East District, came up with the idea of customized place mats advertising upcoming church events, such as Vacation Bible School and Sunday worship times. According to member Bert Talbott, the idea came from the church's Outreach and Assimilation Committee.

It's a great way to invite visitors and potential new members from your neighborhood.

Got an idea?

If your church has a "bright idea" for a new ministry, outreach effort or fundraiser, share it with other Indiana churches by sending e-mail to: Editor; or writing to Hoosier United Methodist News, 1100 W. 42nd St., Suite 210, Indianapolis, Ind. 46208. Please enclose a clear photo with identification if possible.
