by Chester Larson Area Representative, Scripture Press Q. Recently we were told in a Sun day School Conference to visit the unchurched parents of our Sunday school pupils. How do you visit such parents? A. Getting unsaved parents o f a Sunday school pupil to attend Sun day school can be difficult. Some par ents feel the church tries to push them into coming. So avoid any high- pressure approach. Use a “ soft-sell” method, which shows that you are interested in them, not for the church’s benefit, but for their own personal gain. But don’t point this out to them — let them come to this conclusion themselves. Since you have a point o f contact in their child, express your genuine appreciation for their letting that child attend. Point out their child’s interests in class activities. This should center especially in what the child is able to contribute by way o f discussion and handwork. If you know that the parents re sent the fact that the child has been converted, do not hit them head-on with this fact. Establish a rapport with the unsaved parents by learn ing about their personal interests— their jobs or hobbies. This shows them that you are interested in them, not simply as additions to your adult department, but because they are in teresting people to know. Observe any o f the religious in terests manifested in the home — pictures of Christ on the wall or Bi bles on bookshelves. If they readily talk about their religious interests, seek to guide them to consider study ing the Bible in a group at church on Sunday mornings.
