I think those are great forms of outreach. You may not be able to count great numbers of people who have become part of the church through things like this but they have become familiar with the church, they know where you are, and perhaps some day when they decide they need to get "into a church" they will remember your church and the influence it has had on their lives.

Re: This is the Day

I suppose if a church has a prayer meeting on Halloween they will be seen as celebrating Halloween or providing an Halloween alternative,
