More Timeless Summer Outreach Ideas
5. Goofy Games Night
Set up nontraditional game stations outside. Good resources for games include PE teachers and the internet. Search for “kids’ outside games” and explore the options. Don’t forget your local Christian bookstore for great game books and ideas!
6. Pastor’s House Night
Check with your pastor first! Kids file inside for tacos and back out for a lawn picnic. If your pastor’s home doesn’t have play equipment, bring lawn games or plan team games. Again, don’t forget permission slips and enough background-checked volunteers.
7. Mystery Night Summer Outreach
Don’t reveal the theme of this night to kids until one week before. You could even keep the theme a secret until that night. The mystery is a Christmas celebration in August. Decorate the room for Christmas, play Christmas games, serve holiday snacks and, of course, give gifts. You could wrap school supplies for kids and get the school year off to a great start!
