Advertising Your Church
Every red blooded minister will appreciate the discouragements fared by the Rev. Chas. Nelson — the aloofness of members, lack of interest, and absence of harmony in the pitifully small congregation. You, too, have perhaps faced the task of preparing your weekly sermon only to deliver it to a mere handful of people— have striven to build up the Sunday School in the face of apparent indifference and lack of helper«. The Rev. Nelson brings to his aid the powerful force of advertising, through the use of a parish paper. Now his efforts are crowned with suc cess; he receives— but you will want to read the story itself. The Parish Paper Idea Almost daily we receive letters from successful pastors who are using the parish paper in their churches. Some tell of the expanding influence of their church, others tell of the constant spread of the Gospel, many refer to the in creased interest of all church members. One letter speaks of “ the increased attendance, benevolence and offerings,’* another “ our church membership has increased from 100 to 200, our Sunday School from 67 to 170, and collec tions increased 300 per cent.’’ No Expense to Your Church These result® can be duplicated right in your own church— at no expense to you. The story of “How the Rev. Chas. Nelson Succeeded** shows you how, through a church paper. The Parish Paper will reach out into the highways and byways of your community, influencing the unchurched, gaining the good will of business men. With it you can keep the community in formed of your activities and get people talking
