Indiana—There are many wonderful and creative ways to do evangelism! The Frankfort (Ind.) Adventist Church has been placing ads in the local newspaper about the Sabbath on a regular basis. To support the ad campaign, the church entered a float showcasing the Sabbath in the Frankfort Christmas parade. Church members enjoyed working together to make it all the happen, and there can be no doubt that the float had an impact on parade-goers! Shortly after Christmas, the church plans to put another ad in the paper to offer people a free book about the Sabbath.

Throstur Thordarson, Frankfort and Lafayette pastor, also reports that in the Lafayette (Ind.) Church, students decorated the school bus like a big Christmas present with a gift tag on the front of the bus that read, “To Jesus!” Then they entered their gift-bus in the town parade. Out of the 171 entries in the Lafayette Christmas parade this year, the Lafayette Church placed third with the gift-bus entry! And because of that, their float was moved to the front of the parade where they received good exposure and press coverage! What a fun and creative way to let people know that we love Jesus!
