Bring a Friend to Church
The Welcoming Committee is delighted to share that Sunday, April 12, will be “Bring a Friend to Church Sunday”! It’s a wonderful opportunity to spread the good news about our church community—our church family, our missions, Sunday School, Youth Group, Vacation Bible School, and all the meaningful ways we grow and serve together.
Research shows that 86% of new congregants first come to church because someone they know invited them. A simple invitation can make a lasting difference.
To celebrate the day, the Welcoming Committee will host a special coffee hour where we can meet, greet, and extend hospitality to all who join us.
Please mark your calendar and consider who you might invite to share in this joyful Sunday.
