Young Adult Disciples

Are you interested in a way to encourage young adult attendance of your church?

Young Adult Disciples: (an action plan for churches to consider following gifting solar lights to encourage church attendance by young adults):

1. Church leadership will first need to approve using solar lights to encourage young adult attendance of their church. Church leadership will need to decide on a strategy for purchasing and gifting solar lights. The most simple strategy is to have an age range in mind (say 18-30) and to base distribution to young adults who regulary attend church (say 3 attendances during the last one month). It is important for churches to decide on a strategy that they can sustain and communicate.

2. It is suggested that churches consider gifting one solar walkway light to each person meeting their gifting criteria. We suggest the gifting of solar walkway lights as they are affordable and also have an association with both light and walking with Jesus. Solar walkway lights are designed to be placed outside and have multiple names such as solar deck lights/ solar path lights/ solar garden lights etc.

3. Within your church, find a member prepared to become the young adult disciple (responsible for managing your solar light gifting to encourage young adult attendance). The young adult disciple will need to keep tabs on young adults attending and gift solar lights when required. The young adult disciple will also need to report back to church leadersip and ensure stocks of solar lights are ordered when required.

4. It is suggested that you print this information to accompany each gifted solar light.
