4 Tips for Pastors to Motivate People to Attend Church

4 Tips for Pastors to Motivate People to
Attend Church
Pastors may have a big vision and committed people, but how to drive more and more people to visit
the church is often a problem for them. Here, are some great tips to make it happen.
Ask your people to encourage others
Pastor always do a commendable job by encouraging their people to invite their neighbors, friends, and
colleagues. But perhaps this encouragement is not sufficient; people also need tools and resource. For
it, you can print invite cards and distribute them to their doors. Craft a Facebook post and ask people to
share it. You may also get shareable graphics created for people to post and share on social media.

Take help of Facebook
Sometimes, people do not attend churches as they are not aware that there are ‘churches near me.'
Community churches are great to bring people of any race, culture, ethnicity, and background assemble
at one place. However, it will only happen when they are aware that any such place exists around them.
Facebook is a powerful tool here you can use to disseminate any message to a larger crowd that is more
engrossed in their smartphones. You can also promote a post about a parenting series to people in your
community. You can also try paid advertising and boost content that can be shared by others.
Prepare for the big day
Rather than inviting the people all the time, make them ready for a big day, like Easter or a Sunday you
can name something innovative. Muster all your energy in making the day special. You can do it by
posting special videos on social media or joining creative elements. Make it a mission for your church to
bring people on that day. By doing so, you make people come out of their routine and let them know
that there is something special happening.

Give importance to people
The growth of a church is not about campaigns and tactics. They are important in this tech-savvy world,
but not everything. The prime focus is spiritual enterprise. If you want to reach more and more people
in your community, invite them and start praying for them by name. Find a method to collect names and
creative ways to pray for people. While using emails or social media capture the first name of people,
you would like to invite.
No matter, whatever tool or tactics you use, the prime motto is to encourage more and more people to
attend the church.
