Engaging your neighbors creates opportunities to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Here is a list of ideas for reaching out to the neighbors closest to you:
- Walk regularly in your town and neighborhood.
- Stay outside a while longer after doing yardwork.
- Sit on the front porch or by a fire pit.
- Bake cookies or brownies to share.
- Invite neighbors over for dinner, coffee, or ice cream.
- Get the grill out and host a barbecue.
- Organize a block party.
- Host a game night.
- Grow a garden and share the produce.
- Join the neighborhood watch.
- Invite neighbors to watch a game or a movie.
- Volunteer to coach a youth sports team.
Don’t be disappointed if you don’t have a chance to talk about faith right away. A kind, welcoming manner can open the door for a conversation about our sin and our need for a Savior.
