The last few years a fast food chain in our area passed out invite cards to Easter with Waters Edge Church to every person who visited the restaurant. It was a HUGE way to get the word out about our services. Someone complained and threatened to sue the restaurant. Because of the drama caused by one person the restaurant wasn't able to pass out our invite cards.
The WEC staff put our heads together and came up with a creative way to spread the word. It's called Easterrocks.com. On Sunday we, ever so gently, placed cards with instructions on each car in our parking lot. The instructions asked that each person do 3 things.
- Buy a window chalk marker
- Write Easterrocks.com on your windshield (we clarified rear windshield just to be safe)
- Write Easterrocks.com on your Facebook, Twitter, or blog.
We then provided markers for all of our Community Group Facilitators so that Community Groups could mark up cars together. This past Monday my group chalked up our cars during group. It was a lot of fun. Here are some pics...
One person. One person can cause so much uproar. One person can lead to so much negativity and drama. One person. But, one person can also save the world.
