Our church will be celebrating its 75th anniversary and we are going to have a week long celebration. Does anyone have any ideas of any things we could do to make this special.... Any nightly theme Ideas would be appreciated.
For example... We have a youth night where one of our former members has become a state youth director, and he will be preaching. We were thinking of having a rememberance night with a slide show of past members and members that have gone on to be wiht the Lord, and we are talking of having an Old Fashioned day, with a "Old Fashioned style homecoming dinner.
We still have a week to fill! HELP!!!!LOL

Make a time capsule for the next 75 years. Put songs a bible signed buy all and or a attendance register and anything else that you deem important for your church. OHHH a Church bulletin for sure with the date on it.

# 1. Have a night to list the costs of a week long celebration and how the money could have been spent help others and show Christ's love.
#2. Have a night to remember all the people who have been made to feel uncomfortable or turned away from your church. Also remember all the collective judgments on others who do not believe as you do.
#3. A night to honestly assess short comings in the collective congregation and discuss and implement changes to remedy these.
I hope that your congregation is one that welcomes strangers (Hebrews 13:1,2) and does not have so much of the above. It is my experience that all congregations could use improvement. You could have a night or two where you go to the streets, hospitals, elderly homes, etc and do the James thing. A free community fair and free feed would be nice and invite other congregations to promote brotherhood in the churches.God bless and use your time and money wisely. How about pray and let the Holy Spirit guide you instead of going to the Internet?

How about "pack a pew" night. Each family or person is responsible to see that they invite enough people to fill their row. Or how about an "In church sing", where the entire evening is singing of individuals, duets, trios, etc. made up from the congregation. We had one night where we made a 30 foot banana split. We purchased sections of new plastic guttering, set up tables, placed the guttering sections together to make a 30 ft. trough, put scoops of ice cream, and toppings all the way down it, and lined people up on each side to eat it. The kids especially loved it.

Whatever the reason getting him on your insurance can't wait a couple months, I am sorry... Your anniversary would be the date you were legally married. You may want to check with your church/minister -I've heard some churches won't do a "wedding" because you're already married and won't have a license. Whatever you decide is best for you, contgrats on the wedding and I hope everything works out the way you need it to.
