Church events can be amazing opportunities for fellowship. They can allow you to let your hair down and become closer to your congregation. So, what are some tips for hosting an awesome church event in 2022? Read on to find out and have the time of your life.
Plan It
The first thing you need to do is plan your event. This is self-explanatory. You need to be clear on who’s coming, the theme of the event, the parameters of the event, and how to market it. Even things as small as securing decorations and choosing the best photo booth design need to be planned in advance. You also need to get other people involved. Don’t keep these plans in your head—share them with others. Organizing a committee may be a good idea because it will allow you to take advantage of different perspectives and develop a plan with others.
Market It
Marketing is a huge part of any event. How will you take advantage of an event if no one comes? It would be wise to sit down with your committee and begin figuring out ways to market your event. This should be easy enough. In the age of social media, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram are excellent mediums to get the word out. Think about how many followers your church has on these sites and do your best to leverage them.
While you’re doing this, it may also be wise to put flyers on your church’s bulletin board and post them in different places around town.
Create a Brand
Leverage this event to create something big. Perhaps during the event, you can tease another project you’re currently working on or pivot and show your congregation the new direction your church is moving toward. Regardless, this event can be a tipping point to much bigger things and a catalyst for more events in the future. This is a very important part of hosting a church event.
In short, coming up with a church event isn’t exactly easy. It’s a lot of work, but with these tips, you’ll be well on your way to drawing more people to your congregation and having a great time while doing it.
