Make it URGENT!

Most folks that go to church on a regular basis, which is most folks that go to church, would affirm the following:
  • God loves people;
  • People need God.
So why aren't we constantly inviting folks to church?
After all the excuses are put forth, it might just boil down to this:

We feel no urgency.

We believe that sharing God's love with our family/friends is the most  IMPORTANT thing in the world,
but we don't feel like it's URGENT.
So we don't bring them to church.

Here's my idea:

LET'S MAKE IT URGENT THIS EASTER!

Let's invite folks to come to celebrate Easter with us like it's urgent,
as if life and etenity depend on it...
(I'll just let you process that one on your own)

So here's your plan:
  • Write down at least 2 couples/families or 4 names.
  • Invite them to attend church with you Easter Sunday.
  • Now, for the next 4 weeks, pray for them, love them, remind them over and over again!
Here's the truth- every church in the world could DOUBLE on Easter Sunday if we all just brought brought someone.

And I promise, if you bring someone to Connections,
We'll give them a gift, send them a card, and let them know they are welcomed.
And we'll see what happens from there!
