Lights at the Lake Community Outreach Program
Many individuals and families descend on the DeFuniak Springs Lake during the Christmas season to enjoy the lights and decorations. This area event is a great opportunity for churches to engage the community with the Hope of Jesus and to display to the city that the local church loves its community through Servant evangelism and engagement. The 2021 Christmas Reflections season runs nightly from November 26 to December 31 from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Your church can embrace this opportunity by:
1. Sending an individual to the city planning meeting so that you can help shape the event and know, in real time, the details of this event. The planning team meets every Wednesday at 9:00 a.m. in the City Council Room at City Hall.
2. Determine if your church wants to fill a need identified by the planning team (ex. parking assistant) or if you want to create a unique opportunity (Diaper Changing Station, Coffee & Hot Chocolate Station, Food Station, give out free Christmas ornaments, etc.).
3. Determine what individual and/or team will lead this evangelism effort for your church.
4. Determine the specific night(s) that your church will participate (ex. a couple people scattered each night or everyone on a certain night).
