More and more I find that the most effective ministry is the simplest. Here is an example of an effort to keep ministry simple:
Brown Bag is a an opportunity to fellowship after the Sunday morning service each week. Here's what you do:
1. Pack a lunch for you and your family, plus a little bit extra.
2. Bring lawn chairs.
3. After the Sunday morning service, sit under a shade tree and eat your lunch with other "brown baggers." (The little bit extra you brought might be used to share with someone who didn't bring any, kind of like the loaves and fishes in the Bible.)
This time is perfect for dialogue about the message that day and for getting to know people on a deeper level. It is also a great time for kids to run around the property and play on the playground. So, come and enjoy the shade and a great time of fellowship.
