BLESS Sunday 2020

YOU CAN BRING BLESS TO YOUR CONGREGATION

Host a BLESS Sunday on or before March 8.

Start by focusing specifically on the invitation to Begin with prayer. This bulletin insert provides a clear overview of BLESS and two perforated bookmarks.

Individuals are encouraged to use bookmarks to create a prayer list of the people in their lives who do not know God–the prayer list should be identical on both bookmarks.

One bookmark is meant to be kept by the individual as a reminder to pray each day for the names on the list. The second bookmark should be collected by the church.

Resources for your BLESS Sunday

BLESS BOOKMARKS

Collect completed bookmarks and bring to your conference annual meeting where superintendents will collect.

If you are not attending your conference annual meeting, please forward bookmarks directly to your superintendent/conference office.

Regardless of when you use BLESS at your church, please get bookmarks to your superintendent one week prior to Gather.

A special time of prayer will be dedicated to these bookmarks/names at Gather.

5-PART SERMON SERIES

Consider a five-part series to discuss each missional practice of BLESS, beginning on March 17th, BLESS Sunday. You may choose to preach the sermons on sequential Sundays or spread them out over time. Order the full set of BLESS bulletin inserts and each week, share the relevant insert with your congregation.

BULLETIN INSERTS FOR YOUR CHURCH

All bulletin inserts are FREE for you and your congregation to use as you BLESS your world for Christ. These inserts were designed to help you consider ways to deepen your relationships with those who are far from God through prayer, listening with care, eating together, serving with love, and sharing your story.
