Your Easter Invitation Guide
Simple ways to invite someone to Easter at Santuck.

1. Send a Text or Direct Message
You don’t need a speech – just a QUICK message. A short, friendly message can open the door. Here’s an example:
"Hey! Our church is having an Easter service on April 5 at 10:30 am. It will make an impact on your life and you will meet a lot of great people. I think you will love it! Want to come with me?"
2. Use Social Media
People are already scrolling. Use our church’s Easter invite as an invitation tool. Post your story or your family’s best Easter photo from last year. Keep it personal and fun. Tag someone you’d love to bring. You could write something like this:
"We can’t wait for Easter at Santuck! If you’re looking for a place to celebrate Jesus, come with us!"
3. Make It a Whole Experience
A church service + a shared meal = a powerful invitation. Invite a friend, family, or co-worker to join you for Easter at Santuck. After the service, go grab lunch together. When people feel included in your life, it builds trust and openness.
4. Take Out the Awkward
For some people, showing up to a new place is uncomfortable and a HUGE obstacle. Make it easy by offering to ride together or meet them at a designated, easily accessible place in the parking lot. Removing the first layer of uncertainty will make a big difference.

You never know what God might do through a simple invitation. Ask the Lord for boldness as we trust to see lives and hearts changed – some believing in Jesus for the first time and others coming back to Jesus.
