The year of 2010 has been an amazing year for North Valley Baptist Church with many exciting events, including a record breaking day of attendance on September 12. God has blessed NVBC greatly! One of the reasons for a successful year has been our monthly Super Saturdays of Soul Winning. North Valley has church-wide soul winning (telling others of Christ and inviting them to church) every week, but once a month we really push it hard. We encourage every member to come on these super Saturdays and have a part in inviting the community to church. During every Super Saturday of Soul Winning, we strive to pass out 10,000 invitations!
It is very inexpensive. We pay only $220 (before shipping and tax) to print 10,000 invitations! We design our files to be a standard postcard size (4″x6″) to make the printing extremely cost effective. And then, we send our invitations to be printed at www.gotprint.com. They do a fantastic job at an incredible price. So, cost should not be an issue. If you have a smaller church, 5,000 invitations would cost around $110 and 1,000 invitations would cost only $30!! (at the time of this blog post – before shipping and tax)
We find people often don’t go soul winning because they are unsure what to say when passing out invitations. So, we choose a theme or special day every month to make it as easy as possible for our members to invite others. For instance, “I would like to invite you to my church tomorrow. We are having Open House Sunday. I hope you’ll come visit!” It so easy; anyone can do it! Below are a some examples of the theme and special day invitations we’ve used in the past. You can download the source files and edit them to use at your church free of charge. I would love to hear in the comments below if you plan on doing this. Think of the additional visitors you could have in church for the year of 2011 if you began a monthly Super Saturday of Soul Winning. May 2011 be the best year for NVBC and your church as well!
Each Invitation contains editable, layered Photoshop files and an InDesign file. You are free to use these for your church, but you may not resale these invitations or files. I would love to know if you use any of these for your church.
