Christmas Outreach Project
North Wake Church is a family of faith that exists to know the love of God in Jesus Christ, grow in love for one another, and go in love to our neighbors near and far.
What is our Goal?
Provide opportunities and avenues for North Wake members to reach their neighbors—both near and far. Christmas is a strategic season to Engage, Evangelize, Equip, Establish relationships with neighbors, coworkers, and those we encounter “along the way” — at the grocery store, barber shop, and beyond.
The goal of the Christmas Outreach Project is to offer tangible, practical ideas that inspire us to serve and bless others. Through these activities, we can grow in confidence to share the love of Christ—demonstrating His goodness through love and good works.
What is the “How”?
How can we, as a church family, intentionally engage those around us this Christmas? By taking simple, purposeful steps—through acts of kindness, conversations, and service—that open doors for relationships and gospel opportunities.
We will focus our intentional steps around the Four E’s: Engage, Equip, Evangelism, and Establish. From these four actions, you can choose an activity to do as an individual, a family, or with your Grow Group.
