Designing and using contact cards
Contact cards are a great way to communicate with someone one-to-one, leaving them with a way to contact you, visit your church website, or learn more from an outreach site.
It is possible print your own onto cardstock, if you have a good option for accurate cutting. However there are many online companies that enable you to choose ready-made backgrounds, and edit the text (even add your own graphics) online, using draggable resizable text-boxes that you may be familiar with from desktop publishing programs such as Publisher or Serif. They can be very cheap – even under 10 dollars/euros/pounds for 250.
Churches can print contact cards in bulk for members to use. You can design your own personal address card with recommendations for outreach sites you feel are appropriate, and/or your church website.

Tony:
This is a great idea and one that generates a lot of traffic at my site.
I write a similar idea here:
Business cards that Church Members Can Give Away.
It’s good to have website and service times, as well as directions printed on the back. My sample has a map on the back.
