How can I get people to come to weekly community event?

I live in a rural community. There is NOTHING to do! So I organized a free weekly Game Night at our church. We play board and card games. There are also coloring and kids’ games. I set out sodas, popcorn and a fresh cake every week.
The problem? Nobody has come. This is the 4th week with just my bro in law playing Scrabble or Canasta. We have passed out 120 flyers, posted the event on Yahoo Upcoming, and on the website of the nearest city’s newspaper.
What else can I do? I really thought that people would be receptive to the idea.

Make posters for local businesses.

Have specific ideas to organize for. Recruit help.
