Taking the seasonal message to your neighbourhood
Bible Society have come up with six ways to bless your local communities this Christmas ...
1) Carol singing
We've popped all your favourite carols into a lovely booklet, ready for your door-to-door singing antics. They're also great for your carol services – and a gift your visitors can take home with them. We hope you're in good voice...
Order your carol booklet (and linked resources) from CPO here
2) Make them part of the story
Dramatise the Christmas story with our popular Pop-up Nativity, which champions the audience as the actors. This year's rehearsal-free Nativity script is all ready to go. Are you?
3) Screen The Greatest Journey
Our Christmas film is back, and it's more amusing than ever. Show the film during your nativity service or host a screening for community in your church, home, pub or community centre.

4) Give out books
... and don't let people leave empty handed. Printed booklets of The Greatest Journey make a lovely giveaway. Available to order in bulk for a small donation per book.
5) Take on the Advent Challenge
From paying for a stranger's coffee order to taking flowers to an old people's home, take on a practical, biblical-inspired challenge each day of Advent to bring some Christmas joy to those around you.
6) Decorate your gifts
Bless your neighbours with cards and gifts this December – and add our stickers to your envelopes and gift wrap to share the real Christmas story.
