Welcome to Reach Last year, the Church of England reported record numbers of people attending church on Christmas Day. We may be an increasingly secular and divided nation, but we are still spiritually hungry. As the church, we must be ready to communicate to everyone who comes through the door or even just walks past, that Jesus was born for the sake of the world, that he loves them, that he welcomes them, and that in him is unshakeable hope.
At CPO, we are here to help your church do that. This issue of Reach is packed with resources, inspiration and tools to help you reach out this Christmas. We look forward to hearing your stories about the impact of your welcome.

CHRISTMAS CPO has a treasury of resources to support and help you, your church or charity make the most of the outreach and discipleship opportunities that Christmas brings. Some things to bear in mind as you gear up for the festive season: Reflect your context Maximise your Christmas communications by understanding who you are trying to reach. Contextually appropriate wording and visual messaging will make your promotion more effective. Is your church on a residential estate? Beside a school? Surrounded by businesses? Make sure you reflect your church’s setting.
1
Be consistent Trust grows with familiarity so your outreach will be most effective when you have a consistent look over all your communications. Pick a design and use it as invitations, posters, banners and on your website and social media profiles.
2
4
Plan six weeks ahead Plan ahead to get everything ready in good time. Make sure your primary call to action is promoted, and don’t bombard visitors with multitudes of flyers when they first walk in. Simplicity will allow your messages to pop out more!
3
Look outside Posters on noticeboards, vinyl banners on railings, roll-up banners and A-frame noticeboards on the street all work to promote events. Include dates, times and a digital link so people can connect to find out more. Make people know they are welcome and why they should attend the Christmas events at your church.
4
More options at cpo.org.uk or give us a call.
Decorate inside Banners, posters and flyers inside the church can be a great way to welcome people as they come into the building. Let them know what’s going on in the coming weeks, where things are and who is in charge of the different activities.
5
Stock up on giveaways When people visit your church have something to giveaway as a follow up. It may be a welcome booklet or flyer with helpful information. Plan a fresh invitation soon after events to bring new people into the church so they have an incentive to return in January.
6
Make it personal Send Christmas cards to local businesses and neighbours of the church to bless them. Provide engaging postcards that can be given out by your congregations at their workplace and schools.
7
Think digital Make the most of your digital presence to invite newcomers to your church over Christmas. You can create events on Facebook and encourage your congregation to invite friends. Use Instagram to tell stories over Advent. Use video to invite people and share what’s going on. Create or use existing video clips to give your events maximum impact. Where budget allows, pay to promote events on social media.

The following words are in the leaflet above. Use these as invitations, an order of service or as an evangelistic tract. These designs have a simple and different gospel message, relating to their image. You can find wording for other designs online at cpo.org.uk/leaflet. For to us a child is born… …and his name shall be called Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. - Isaiah 9:6 The expectations on Jesus were staggering. But he really did bring peace – peace with God. As a later prophecy from Isaiah put it, ‘upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed.’ (Isaiah 53:5) The Prince of Peace would give his life in place of ours and because of his death, we have a life that will never end.
Born to be King C5727MFDL
Peace may feel like a faraway concept for you this Christmas. Maybe you feel despair at the political landscape, perhaps your family are at loggerheads, or maybe you are just overwhelmed by the demands of life. This Christmas, join us at church, spend time with the Christ-child and experience the peace he offers. Changed History C5723MFDL

REMEMBRANCE Jesus said, ‘Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.’ (John 15:13) Over the centuries, countless soldiers have sacrificed their lives to greater causes. On this day, we honour them and pray for peace. These designs show your community you are engaging in this national act of remembrance. Support the bereaved on All Souls Day, 2nd November.

Banners
Roll-up banners Many churches don’t meet in a purpose-built building, but rent space in schools, sports halls or even cinemas. These spaces are flexible and economical but do require some extra effort to alert people to the fact you are worshipping God in this unconventional location. Our roll-up banners are portable, customisable and eye-catching and a good way to identify yourselves to passers-by and newcomers.

Invite your community to experience God through talking and listening to him in prayer. CPO are providing supporting resources at cpo.org.uk/hopespaces
