Click here to go to download the ZIP FILE that contains all the files above. (5-10 minutes or more if you have a slower connection--but it is really worth it!) Needless to say it is a LARGE file--66 MB and it will take several minutes to download. Once you download it, save it on to your hard drive, simply click to unzip and the files will be ready to open in the various programs.

Let me know if this was too large of a file for you to download. I put all the files together to make it easier, but if it would be easier to have smaller ZIP files let me know and I will break it apart for you.

Member’s Downloads of Apple Pie with options Recipe Cards

15 April, 2009 By Yvon Prehn 2 Comments

Mother's Day is a great time to invite moms to come to ministry events that occur outside Sunday. The recipe cards here are a fun way to do that. Everyone loves recipe cards--you can give them out on Mother's Day and on the back invite moms back to other ministry opportunities. The recipe cards here have both a clip art version and a version with a photo illustration.

Mother’s Day church bulletin inserts or jpgs for evangelism follow-up

14 April, 2009 By Yvon Prehn

When unchurched family members come to your church you don't want them to leave without something that directs them to further research of the gospel and what it means to have a relationship with Jesus.

This bulletin insert was created to give them something to take home and using the websites on it, it gives people an opportunity to explore on their own.

PLEASE NOTE: this free sample is NOT a PDF like the other free samples publications in this series of communications for Mother's Day. It is a jpg file--a graphic file that you can use as is or resize to fit into another publication. Click on the image to download it, when it opens in the other window you can either save it or copy and paste it into a publication like MS Publisher.

If you would like to see an example of how a church communicator used an image like this in her church bulletin for Easter, click here.

This is the second bulletin insert.

All four Mother's Day Bulletin inserts (there are actually two versions of each one)

PDF Files
Resizable jpg files

After you download the file, SAVE it to your computer, then click on it to "unzip" it and the files are ready for you to use.

One Mother’s Prayer, the text and download link

4 April, 2009 By Yvon Prehn Leave a Comment

This short piece, One Mother's Prayer, is a true story that is both an encouragement to pray for children and an assurance of the power of prayer to change a destiny.

It has been published more times than anything else I've written. It was first published in Today's Christian Woman magazine. Then in their Best of Ten Years of writings, it has been reprinted and republished all over the world, and it continues to bring tears to the eyes of any group I read it to. You are free to use it any way you want and share it however you want.

This sample PDF if free to download.You can click here or on the image to download it.

Members will get the all of the additional PDF formats: 2 more 8 1/2 by 11 plus 4 other versions on half sheet size plus the jpgs of the larger files and an MS Word text file if you want to create your own publication. The text file and the link to all the other downloads is after the images below.

This is a great resource not only for Mother's Day, but any time of the year for Mom's groups and prayer groups. [Read more...]

Mother’s Day, communications that will help you make the most of the outreach opportunities, Webinar On-Demand

3 April, 2009 By Yvon Prehn 3 Comments

Take a few minutes to watch this and you'll never look at Mother's Day at your church in the same way.

Mother's Day has the third highest attendance of any Sunday and it isn't because of all the mothers there. It's because of the unchurched spouses and kids who come with mom!

This is a fantastic day for outreach, but you have to intentionally make the most of it. Below is a short video that will give you great ideas on how to do this. I STRONGLY recommend you take a few minutes in your staff meeting to discuss this and plan how you can make the most of this day for outreach.

Below the video is a PDF of the handouts for the presentation.
