										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mother&#8217;s Day is a special day celebrated worldwide to honor the mothers and mother figures in our lives. It&#8217;s also the 3rd highest attended church service of the year after Easter and Christmas Eve.</p>
<p>That means Mother&#8217;s Day is an excellent opportunity to reach out to people your community and show how the love of Christ compels us to love moms and families &#8211; those who are already a part of our congregation and those outside our community of faith.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re looking for new church outreach ideas for Mother&#8217;s Day, we&#8217;ve got a bunch of them grouped into two categories: first, events you can do in-person, and second, ways to promote your events and connect with people online.</p>
<h2>14 Church Outreach Event Ideas for Mother&#8217;s Day</h2>
<h4><b>1. Mother&#8217;s Day Service</b></h4>
<p>Plan a meaningful and intentional Mother’s Day service that highlights the value and impact of mothers and mother figures. Incorporate special elements such as a dedicated time of prayer over mothers, testimonies from different generations, and worship songs that reflect gratitude and faithfulness.</p>
<p>The message can focus on biblical examples of motherhood, encouragement for women in all seasons of life, and God’s design for nurturing and leadership within the family. Consider giving a small gift to every woman in attendance to ensure no one feels overlooked, including those who may not have children but serve as spiritual mothers.</p>
<h4><b>2. Mother&#8217;s Day Brunch</b></h4>
<p>Host a welcoming and well-organized brunch either before or after the service, inviting not only church members but also the surrounding community. Create a warm atmosphere with decorated tables, soft music, and volunteers who intentionally engage with guests. Offer a variety of food options to accommodate different preferences, and consider adding a short devotional, prayer, or words of appreciation during the event.</p>
<p>This can also be a great opportunity for outreach by encouraging families to invite friends and neighbors who may not regularly attend church.</p>
<h4><b>3. Mother&#8217;s Day Cards</b></h4>
<p>Set up a designated space where children, youth, and adults can create personalized Mother’s Day cards. Provide supplies such as colored paper, markers, stickers, and scripture verses that can be included in the cards. This activity not only adds a personal touch but also encourages thoughtfulness and gratitude.</p>
<p>You could also organize volunteers to deliver cards to elderly women, widows, or those in nursing homes who may not receive recognition on Mother’s Day, extending the impact beyond your congregation.</p>
<h4><b>4. Mother&#8217;s Day Gift Bags</b></h4>
<p>Prepare thoughtful gift bags that include items such as devotionals, candles, snacks, or small self-care products. Consider including a personalized message from the church expressing appreciation and encouragement.</p>
<p>These bags can be distributed during the service or delivered to mothers who are unable to attend. This simple gesture can leave a lasting impression and communicate genuine care and gratitude.</p>
<h4><b>5. Mother&#8217;s Day Photo Booth</b></h4>
<p>Create a fun and inviting photo booth area where families can capture special moments together. Use a themed backdrop with flowers, soft colors, or meaningful phrases, and provide props that add personality and humor.</p>
<p>Assign volunteers to help take photos and ensure everyone has a chance to participate.</p>
<p>You can also offer digital copies or printouts as keepsakes, making it a memorable experience that families will cherish long after the day is over.</p>
<h4><b>6. Mother&#8217;s Day Devotional</b></h4>
<p>Develop a short devotional specifically designed for mothers, focusing on encouragement, strength, and faith. Include scripture, reflections, and practical applications that speak to the daily challenges and joys of motherhood.</p>
<p>This devotional can be printed, emailed, or shared on social media so it reaches a wider audience. It’s a meaningful way to provide ongoing encouragement beyond the Sunday service.</p>
<h4><b>7. Mother&#8217;s Day Tea</b></h4>
<p>Host a relaxed and elegant tea gathering where mothers can connect and enjoy fellowship. Set up tables with simple decorations, serve tea, coffee, and light refreshments, and create a calm, welcoming environment. You may include a short message, testimony, or devotional to encourage attendees.</p>
<p>This event works well as a pre-Mother’s Day gathering and can help build deeper relationships among women in the church.</p>
<h4><b>8. Mother&#8217;s Day Movie Night</b></h4>
<p>Organize a family-friendly movie night leading up to Mother’s Day that celebrates themes of love, sacrifice, and family. Provide popcorn, snacks, and comfortable seating to create a relaxed atmosphere.</p>
<p>This can be a great outreach opportunity by inviting the community and encouraging families to attend together. Consider briefly sharing a message or reflection before or after the movie to connect it with biblical principles.</p>
<h4><b>9. Spa Day for Moms</b></h4>
<p>Offer a time of rest and refreshment by hosting a simple spa day at the church. Set up stations for basic treatments like hand massages, manicures, or relaxation areas with calming music. If resources are limited, partner with local businesses or provide gift certificates as prizes for a few selected mothers.</p>
<p>This event shows intentional care and provides a much-needed break for many women who spend their time serving others.</p>
<h4><b>10. Mother&#8217;s Day Sunday School</b></h4>
<p>Create a special Sunday school lesson that teaches children about the importance of honoring and appreciating their mothers. Include interactive activities, crafts, and simple Bible lessons that highlight examples of godly women. Encourage children to express gratitude in practical ways, such as writing notes or helping at home.</p>
<p>This not only reinforces biblical values but also helps children actively participate in celebrating Mother’s Day.</p>
<h4><b>11. Support a Women&#8217;s Center</b></h4>
<p>Use Mother’s Day as an opportunity to serve others by partnering with a local women’s center or pregnancy resource center. Organize a donation drive for items such as diapers, baby clothes, or hygiene products, or raise financial support for their ministry.</p>
<p>Share information with the congregation about the impact of these organizations and encourage ongoing involvement. This outreach reflects the heart of compassion and support for mothers in need.</p>
<h4><b>12 Launch New Groups for Moms</b></h4>
<p>Announce and introduce new ministries specifically designed to support mothers in different stages of life. This could include playgroups for young children, Bible studies for moms, or support groups for parents of teenagers.</p>
<p>Provide clear next steps for joining and make it easy for women to get connected. Mother’s Day is a natural time to invite women into deeper community and spiritual growth.<br />
<b><br />
13. Mother&#8217;s Day Out</b></p>
<p>Offer a practical way to bless mothers by providing childcare for a few hours, allowing them to rest, spend time with friends, or take care of personal needs. Ensure the environment is safe, organized, and staffed with trusted volunteers.</p>
<p>This gesture can be especially meaningful for busy or overwhelmed moms and demonstrates tangible support from the church.</p>
<h4><b>14. Mother&#8217;s Day Corsages</b></h4>
<p>Engage your youth group in creating and selling corsages as a fundraiser while also providing a meaningful gift option for families. Set up a station where corsages can be picked up before services, and consider offering pre-orders for convenience.</p>
<p>This idea not only honors mothers but also gives young people an opportunity to serve and contribute to the church community.</p>
<h2>8 Mother&#8217;s Day Online Outreach Ideas</h2>
<div>
<h4><b>1. Create a Landing Page</b></h4>
<p>Create a dedicated landing page on your church website that provides all the details of your Mother&#8217;s Day services and events. This page should be easy to navigate, and the information should be displayed prominently.</p>
<h4><b>2. Utilize Social Media</b></h4>
<p>Social media is an effective way to reach out to your community and promote your Mother&#8217;s services and events. Utilize platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to create posts and share information about your Mother&#8217;s Day services and events.</p>
<h4><b>3. Ask Your Congregation to Utilize Social media</b></h4>
<p>Posting info to the church’s social media profiles will only reach so many people. If you really want to maximize your social media reach, get the people of your church fired up and excited about sharing your church’s social media posts.</p>
<h4><b>4. Share Testimonials</b></h4>
<p>Share testimonies from members of your congregation about the impact that their Mother has had on their life. Or testimonies from mothers on the impact God has had on their family. These testimonials can be shared on social media and on your website to help promote your Mother&#8217;s Day services and events.</p>
<h4><b>5. Email/Blog Devotionals</b></h4>
<p>We suggested giving away physical Mother&#8217;s Day devotionals in #6. An alternative would be to invite people to subscribe to receive daily devotionals via email.</p>
<h4><b>6) Use Graphics and Videos</b></h4>
<p>Create graphics and/or promotional videos for your Easter services and events. These visuals can be shared in your services, on your website, on social media and via email to catch the attention of your audience.</p>
<h4><b>7) Use Online Advertising</b></h4>
<p>Consider using online advertising to promote your Mother&#8217;s Day services and events. Platforms like Google Ads and Facebook Ads can be used to target specific audiences and promote your Mother&#8217;s Day services and events.</p>
<h4><b>8) Search Engine Optimization (SEO)</b></h4>
<p>Make sure people can find your church and Mother&#8217;s Day events when they search online. For help with that check out <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/ultimate-guide-to-church-seo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Ultimate Guide to Church SEO</a></p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>If you're not sure you heard from God this Easter, here's some insight...</p>
<p>The post <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/an-easter-revelation/">An Easter Revelation</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog">Christian Web Trends Blog: Church Websites, Design, SEO</a>.</p>
]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How was Easter with your church?</p>
<p>I hope it was awesome!</p>
<p>I hope your gatherings or services glorified God, people heard the Good News of Jesus&#8217; resurrection, and God revealed himself in powerful ways.</p>
<p><strong>I also hope God has revealed some things through your church&#8217;s Easter communications.</strong></p>
<p>Our blogging over the last month focused on Easter &#8211; preparing your <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com">church website</a> for Easter, doing <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/christian-church-seo/">church SEO</a> for Easter, <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/2017/04/11/will-there-be-life-after-easter/">preparing to tell stories and follow-up after Easter</a>.</p>
<p>Now that Easter is behind us, what have you learned from your Easter communication? And what changes do you want to make?  To help with this, here are some more specific questions to consider.</p>
<h4>Easter Communications Assessment Questions:</h4>
<ul>
<li>What aspects of your Easter communications worked well? How can you build on them?</li>
<li>What aspects of your communications didn&#8217;t work well? How can you improve on them?</li>
<li>Have you reviewed your Analytics since Easter?</li>
<li>Have you reviewed your communication cards?</li>
<li>Have you debriefed with your team?</li>
</ul>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">3 Easter Communications Revelations</h2>
<h4><strong>1) Church Website Revelations</strong></h4>
<p>If your website experienced an increase in traffic in the week leading up to Easter but you didn&#8217;t see many visitors to your Easter services, that&#8217;s an indication you did some great things to get people to your website, but there are likely problems with your website.</p>
<p>Perhaps it&#8217;s outdated, hard to navigate or not mobile friendly, and needs to be fixed or redesigned.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re not yet using the <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/why-church-plan-your-visit/">Plan Your Visit strategy</a>, that might be something to consider.</p>
<h4><strong>2) Church SEO Revelations</strong></h4>
<p>If analytics indicate your website got lots of visitors from search, that&#8217;s awesome &#8211; your website is probably well optimized and your local listings well established.</p>
<p>If you didn&#8217;t get many visitors from organic search, that&#8217;s an indication your website doesn&#8217;t rank well in search engines and SEO is an area that needs work.</p>
<h4><strong>3) Church Social Media Revelations</strong></h4>
<p>If analytics indicate your website didn&#8217;t get many visitors from social media, consider stepping up your social media engagement. If you put a lot of effort into social media but your analytics still show not many people visited your website from social, it&#8217;s probably time to re-evaluate your social media strategy.</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t have any analytics and/or communication cards to evaluate, then perhaps your next step is to get those things going so you have a better idea of your strengths to build on and weaknesses to work on next time.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>How to know which aspects of your church's Easter outreach, marketing or SEO were effective and which weren't</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Easter is now behind us.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re a pastor, church communicator or heavily involved in church ministry, I hope you can take a breath now. But you&#8217;ve got one more important Easter task to do&#8230;</p>
<h2><strong>Review Your Easter Analytics</strong></h2>
<p>Hopefully, you&#8217;ve already done some reviewing of your Easter services and related events, gotten feedback from members of your team, and made notes about what worked well and what didn&#8217;t. You&#8217;ll be able to learn from these observations and make next Easter even better.</p>
<p>What about your website? Your emails? Any social media you used? Any online advertising you did? Have you reviewed how they did?</p>
<p>You should have your website connected with an analytics system like Google Analytics.</p>
<h4><strong>Analytics can answer important questions like&#8230;</strong></h4>
<ul>
<li>How many website visitors did we have the week before Easter this year compared to the week before Easter last year?</li>
<li>How many website visitors did we have the week before Easter compared to a &#8220;normal&#8221; non-Easter week a month ago?</li>
<li>Look at the sources of your visitors in the week before Easter to last month and last Easter? Which sources saw the biggest increases? Organic search? Email? Facebook? Google Ads? This will give you a good idea of how well your Easter marketing and outreach worked.</li>
<li>If your website is connected with Google Search Console, look at your search analytics to see which keywords were searched most often to find your website.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Don&#8217;t waste time and money!</h4>
<p>John Wanamaker, a pioneering American merchant and department store owner is quoted as saying, &#8220;<strong>Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don&#8217;t know which half.</strong>&#8221;</p>
<p>That&#8217;s because he didn&#8217;t have the digital tools and tracking capabilities we now have.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t be content to just guess as to what worked well (and and not so well) with your website, search marketing, and Easter outreach.</p>
<p>Review your analytics, cut back on the marketing that&#8217;s not producing results and focus the time and money you invest in marketing in the areas that are producing results.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8230; I stood with a paralyzing fear, unable to run or even get out of it&#8217;s path&#8230;</p>
<p>Ok, from the example above, maybe I&#8217;m not the best storyteller.</p>
<p>However, we all love stories.  That is why books and movies are so successful: they tell stories.  And before books and movies, people would gather in villages, around fires, and tell stories.  Even Jesus demonstrated the power of storytelling by teaching with parables.</p>
<h4><strong>Why do we love stories?</strong></h4>
<p>Stories are engaging.  We identify with the characters in the the stories. Stories help us understand life and how the universe we live in works. Plus, good stories evoke feelings of joy, sadness, anticipation, fear, and other emotions.</p>
<h4><strong>Are you telling stories on your website?</strong></h4>
<p>People may visit your website looking for logistical details about your organization and its upcoming events. But they are also looking to connect with people and God.</p>
<p>They want to know that your church, ministry, or business understands people like them, and they want to hear how God is using your church or ministry to transform people&#8217;s lives.</p>
<h4><strong>The week after Easter is a great time to tell stories on your church website.  </strong></h4>
<p>You have the opportunity to share stories of what God is doing by posting videos and pictures of the events that happened over the Easter weekend.</p>
<p>And because Easter is all about new life in Christ, post a story (or two, three) from people in your church, sharing their journey, and how the Church helped them draw closer to our risen Savior.</p>
<p>These real life stories are what people will identify with.  Although video is usually the most effective method of story telling, these stories don&#8217;t have to be video.  They can be written stories with a photo of the person who shared their story.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>On Easter we celebrate new life in Christ. Your website can have new life too. :)</p>
<p>The post <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/happy-easter-he-is-risen/">Happy Easter!  He is Risen!!</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog">Christian Web Trends Blog: Church Websites, Design, SEO</a>.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Normally, each week we write about something related to website design, an article that includes information that is relevant and helpful to you and your organization.</p>
<p>Today, I want to say how thankful I am for the gift that God the Father gave to me and everyone who is willing to receive it&#8230; <strong>His Son, Jesus Christ.</strong></p>
<p>This past weekend we remembered the ultimate sacrifice that Jesus paid through his death on the cross.  And although His death is remembered in a somber way, His resurrection is a joyous event that promises new life!</p>
<p><em><strong>He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. -Matthew 28:6 </strong></em></p>
<figure id="attachment_58375" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-58375" style="width: 1000px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-58375 size-full" src="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Quote-ourchurch-he-is-not-here-he-has-risen.jpg" alt="He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. -Matthew 28:6 " width="1000" height="750" srcset="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Quote-ourchurch-he-is-not-here-he-has-risen.jpg 1000w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Quote-ourchurch-he-is-not-here-he-has-risen-300x225.jpg 300w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Quote-ourchurch-he-is-not-here-he-has-risen-150x113.jpg 150w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Quote-ourchurch-he-is-not-here-he-has-risen-810x608.jpg 810w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-58375" class="wp-caption-text">Click to share this image on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=1350437550226241&amp;set=a.519197823350222">Facebook</a>, <a href="https://x.com/OurChurchDotCom/status/2041145328238485857">Twitter</a>, <a href="https://ph.pinterest.com/pin/648729521370744985">Pinterest</a> or <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DWyrbhHmPO6/">Instagram </a></figcaption></figure>
<p>The same can be true about your website.</p>
<p>If you currently have a website that is frustrating, out of date, or difficult to work with, it doesn&#8217;t need to stay that way.  Your website can have new life.</p>
<p>Granted it will probably take more than 3 days to turn your site around but there&#8217;s no better time than the present to get moving. <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f642.png" alt="🙂" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img decoding="async" class="alignright size-full wp-image-47810" src="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/its_good_friday.jpg" alt="its_good_friday video" width="1" height="1" srcset="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/its_good_friday.jpg 200w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/its_good_friday-150x150.jpg 150w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/its_good_friday-145x100.jpg 145w" sizes="(max-width: 1px) 100vw, 1px" />Tomorrow (which has already started in some parts of the world), Christians around the world remember Good Friday.</p>
<p>Many who are not Christian wonder, &#8220;Why is Good Friday called Good Friday?&#8221;</p>
<p>It does seem strange that anyone would describe the day the leader of their movement was unjustly and horrifically killed as &#8220;good.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Back on that first Good Friday, Jesus&#8217;s followers didn&#8217;t consider it to be very good either.</strong>  In fact, on that day, they probably considered it the worst day ever.</p>
<p>Isn&#8217;t it amazing what a little perspective brings?</p>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s an excellent video to help put Good Friday in perspective&#8230;</strong></p>
<p><iframe title="It&#039;s Friday, But Sunday&#039;s Coming!" width="814" height="458" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-0XUo2HcnMw?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p><strong>If you like this video/post, please share it on social media.</strong></p>
<p>For me, the video not only puts Good Friday in the proper perspective (with Easter Sunday coming), but it also serves as a reminder that even on our darkest day, the story is not over.</p>
<p><strong>We have the hope</strong> that comes from knowing God&#8217;s goodness and power could change our entire story at any time.</p>
<p>And<strong> we have the assurance that the battle has already been won</strong>, in the end victory is certain, through Christ Jesus who has defeated death, despair and every other evil.</p>
<p>What does this video mean to you?  What does Good Friday mean to you?</p>
<p><strong>Post a comment to share your insight and perspective with others.</strong></p>

<p><iframe title="Easter: A Scottish three year old&#039;s take..." width="814" height="458" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/4Xgk6g-ovjM?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>

<p>Igniter Media has been putting out great videos for years that have been used by churches all over the world.

<p>Short form videos like this YouTube short, are exploding in popularity. In this one, @RevAlexMeadows explains in less than a minute why Christianity is different from the religious of the world and Jesus is different from any other spiritual leader.</p>

<h4><strong>9. Trump Easter Cold Open &#8211; SNL</strong></h4>
<p>OK, I&#8217;m throwing you a curveball towards the end of the list. Yes, its political because its a spoof of Donald Trump. Yes, its irreverent because it&#8217;s Saturday Night Live. If you don&#8217;t like politics or irreverence, don&#8217;t watch it&#8230; but it is hilarious, IMO!</p>
<p><iframe title="Trump Easter Cold Open - SNL" width="814" height="458" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hj6E2_3nraQ?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<h4><strong>10 .Nicole C. Mullen &#8211; My Redeemer Lives (Lyrics) </strong></h4>

]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you work or volunteer in church communications, this is one of your busiest weeks of the year.</p>
<p>You are putting in lots of extra hours&#8230; getting info out about Easter events, providing resources so the people of your church can invite others, and helping people to reflect on the events of Holy Week.</p>
<p>It may be tempting to think, &#8220;The end is near! Easter is almost here! I can see the finish line!&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>But Easter has never been about endings, has it?</strong></p>
<p>The first Easter was a new beginning.</p>
<p>Every Easter since has been a celebration of the new life we have in Christ.</p>
<p>So, while it&#8217;s understandable if part of us can&#8217;t wait until Easter is over, at the same time, we don&#8217;t want to be unprepared for what happens after Easter.</p>
<ul>
<li>There will be new life in people who commit their lives to Christ for the first time on Easter.</li>
<li>There will be new life in people who have wandered and come home to God on Easter.</li>
<li>There will be people who come to an Easter service and wonder, &#8220;Can I really find new life in Christ? I want to know more.&#8221;</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>We get the opportunity to help cultivate that new life!</strong></p>
<p>So, here are&#8230;</p>
<h2>4 things to help cultivate the new life God creates this Easter</h2>
<h4><strong>1) Create a follow-up plan.</strong></h4>
<p>How are you going to follow up with people who visit your church for the first time? Those who make a first-time commitment to Christ? Those who recommit their life to Christ?</p>
<h4><strong>2) Create a communications card.</strong></h4>
<p>Hopefully you already have something people can fill out to request more information, request prayer or let you know when they have taken a major step of faith. I list the communication card second because it should be designed after you&#8217;ve created your follow-up plan, to ask for the info you need to follow-up effectively.</p>
<p>Ideally, it&#8217;s good to have both a paper communications card for those who are old school and a digital communications card for those who would rather use their phones.</p>
<p>For the digital communications card, this can be a form on your website. Then you can put the URL of the form and a QR code in your bulletin/program (if you still have a print bulletin) and/or on the screen during announcements.</p>
<h4><strong>3) Create a plan for pics and stories.</strong></h4>
<p>Sharing the gospel is primarily about telling God&#8217;s story, not just the story of what He did 2,000 years ago but what he is doing in your church and in the lives of the people who make up your church today.</p>
<p>Take pictures of your Holy Week events. Take video. Ask people to text or email what God does in their lives this week. With permission, share these pics, videos and stories on your <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com">church website</a> and social media to give God the glory.</p>
<h4><strong>4) Create &#8220;Next Steps.&#8221;</strong></h4>
<p>As God stirs people&#8217;s hearts, they will want to know, &#8220;Where do I go from here?&#8221;  Communicate with people what their next step is if they are a first time visitor, a new believer or recommitting their life to Christ.  Include this next steps on your website, in your follow-up plan, in your weekly email newsletter.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is a tendency for those of us who spend our days immersed in online communications to get caught up in the details of technology.</p>
<p>It can be fun to <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/church-website-design/">make our websites better</a>, <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/christian-seo/">move towards the top of search rankings</a> and grow our engagement in social media.</p>
<p>But as we observe Holy Week over the next week and a half,  it&#8217;s a good time to&#8230;</p>
<h4><strong>reflect on why we do what we do</strong>.</h4>
<p>Our Heavenly Father sent his one and only son, Jesus, to sacrifice himself as punishment for our sins.  Jesus loves us so much that he willingly suffered brutal torture and gave his life for us on the cross.  Three days later, on that first Easter he was raised from the dead, demonstrating God has defeated death.</p>
<h4><strong>How amazing is that?!?</strong></h4>
<p>The only response that makes any sense is to bring honor, glory and praise to our awesome, loving God!</p>
<p>So, in the days leading up to Easter, may we do that through our online communication &#8211; our websites, our blogs, our email, our social media.</p>
<p><em><strong>May everyone we communicate with this week and next experience the hope we have in Christ who won victory over death that first Easter</strong></em>, and whose power continues to be at work in our hearts and lives!</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Easter is the second most attended service of the year after Christmas Eve.</p>
<p>Most churches recognize this and put extra effort into reaching people in their community and inviting them to their Easter service.</p>
<p>Most people start their search for a church online, so one of the best ways a church can connect with people looking for a church to worship with on Easter is through search engines like Google. So&#8230;</p>
<h2><strong>How does a church show up in the search results for &#8220;Easter service near me?&#8221;</strong></h2>
<p>And how does that differ from what a church needs to do to show up in the search results for &#8220;Church near me?&#8221;</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a screenshot of the search results I&#8217;m shown for &#8220;Church near me&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-church-near-me-3pack.png"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-58358 size-large" src="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-church-near-me-3pack-1024x486.png" alt="church near me Google local 3-pack" width="810" height="384" srcset="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-church-near-me-3pack-1024x486.png 1024w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-church-near-me-3pack-300x142.png 300w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-church-near-me-3pack-150x71.png 150w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-church-near-me-3pack-810x384.png 810w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-church-near-me-3pack.png 1105w" sizes="(max-width: 810px) 100vw, 810px" /></a></p>
<p>You see Anchor, Bayside, and Holy Spirit Old Catholic churches get the top 3 spots.</p>
<p>Now let&#8217;s look at the results for &#8220;Easter service near me&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-easter-near-me-3pack.png"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-58360 size-large" src="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-easter-near-me-3pack-1024x482.png" alt="Easter services near me - Google local 3-pack" width="810" height="381" srcset="https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-easter-near-me-3pack-1024x482.png 1024w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-easter-near-me-3pack-300x141.png 300w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-easter-near-me-3pack-150x71.png 150w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-easter-near-me-3pack-810x381.png 810w, https://www.ourchurch.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/2022-04-13-easter-near-me-3pack.png 1102w" sizes="(max-width: 810px) 100vw, 810px" /></a></p>
<p>Notice Bayside is the only one in the top 3 for both searches. Harborside and Heritage UMC get in Google&#8217;s &#8220;local 3 pack&#8221; for &#8220;Easter services near me.&#8221;</p>
<h4><strong>Why the difference?</strong></h4>
<p>First, notice in the &#8220;church near me&#8221; results that Google displays a review below the name of each church that has the word &#8220;church&#8221; in it. In the &#8220;Easter services near me&#8221; results that Google displays an excerpt from a &#8220;post&#8221; below the Bayside listing.</p>
<p>Reviews are posted to Google Business Profiles by visitors and members. This highlights the importance for a church to get members and visitors to post reviews.</p>
<p>Posts are articles the church itself has posted to their Google Business Profile. In this case Bayside posted a post to their GBP encouraging people to invite their friends to an Easter service.</p>
<p>Second, Anchor Church and Holy Spirit Old Catholic Church are both in the local 3 pack for &#8220;church near me&#8221; but not for &#8220;Easter services near me&#8221; and neither church mentions Easter on their website at all.</p>
<p>Based on these observations, here are some recommendations.</p>
<h2><strong>5 Tips to Get Your Church in the Search Results for &#8220;Easter service near me?&#8221;</strong></h2>
<h4><strong>1) Use the word Easter on your church website homepage.</strong></h4>
<p>Preferably more than once.  The bigger the heading the better. Include the times for your Easter worship services and any other Easter events you have planned.</p>
<h4><strong>2) Optimize Easter images. </strong></h4>
<p>If you are using one or more images to promote your Easter services, make sure the images are optimized for search by giving them a filename and alt attribute with &#8220;Easter service&#8221; in them.</p>
<h4><strong>3) Claim and verify the Google Business Profile for your church.</strong></h4>
<p>Google cannot know your church website is connected to your Google Business Profile / Google Maps search listing &#8211; and thus will not see the Easter content on your website &#8211; unless you claim and verify it.  <a href="https://www.ourchurch.com/google-verify-my-business/">Verify My Google Business Profile</a></p>
<h4><strong>4) Add a &#8220;Post&#8221; to your Google Business Profile about your Easter services</strong>.</h4>
<p>If you have a page on your website about your Easter services and events, a GPB post can be as simple as the title of that page and a link to the page.</p>
<h4><strong>5) Ask for Easter reviews. </strong></h4>
<p>As we see with Harborside Church, having Easter mentioned in the Google Reviews people post can have a huge impact. It&#8217;s probably too late to have people post reviews and for those reviews to have an impact this year, but you could ask people during or after the service to post a review.</p>
<p>The bottom line is&#8230;</p>
<p><em><strong>Most people start their search for a church online. Will people find your church when they Google “Easter service near me?”</strong></em></p>
