Get to know your area :Church Monopoly!
Idea submitted by Amy Nasseri on 26 October 2008
We used the game monopoly & used it to know our area! We changed the street names to ones surrounding us, the train stations into our largest ethnic groups (You could buy rest’s there!) For more info post a comment and I’ll email you.

Bible distribution on campus
Idea submitted by Rob Elder on 12 June 2008
We recently distributed 1800 pocket NTs through the Gideons at UWS Penrith over just 2 mornings (so 1 in 3 students now owns a Bible!). Part of their success was that it’s unusual to see mature age people on campus + it’s very hard to say no to a granny or grandpa! Is this an opportunity for more mature age people to be involved in Bible distribution?
Month of BBQ’s
Idea submitted by Rob Elder on 06 May 2008
How about endorsing Australia Day through till the end of February as a ‘month of bbqs’ – everyone has 1 month to arrange just 1 bbq with their neighbours or a group of other non-Christian contacts?! We had several neighbours around last weekend and it was great.
What’s your idea?
Are you looking for a specific resource but can’t find it? Do you have a resource or an idea that you’d like to share? Connect09 would like to hear from you.
You may be already using a tool, program or outreach event that could be of use to other Christians. Or maybe you have thought of something new and would like to get some feedback.
