National Night Out, October 6

http://www.nationaltownwatch.org/nno/

This might be a great chance for your church to host an event and get to know its neighbors. Or maybe you'd want to equip your folks to go to the National Night Out event in their own neighborhood and get to know their neighbors.

These new relationships over time might offer opportunities for great spiritual conversations.

You can plan ahead for next year, too. National Night Out has always been the first Tuesday in August. Starting last year, the official day for Texas was changed to the first Tuesday in October because of the heat! I've noticed people using both dates around me. There's nothing keeping churches from using both!
