Bringers and Braggers

I just ate at the new Chinese Buffet, you gotta check it out.
I just got The Kingdom through Netflix. It's worth checking out.
I love my MacBook Pro. Mac forever.

We brag a lot about things we like. Restaurants, movies, computers, music...

Do we brag about God? Do we brag about our church?
Do we bring people to our church so they can experience Jesus in a real way?

This Easter we are encouraging people to bring someone new to church.

Every yellow piece of paper on the chairs represents someone who will be invited this year.




Very exciting.

Question, how do you come to know all those people would be invited? :0) Did you ask your congregation to make a verbal commitment, pledge card, etc? It looks like a great idea, and yes it is very exciting. What else are you doing at your church to prepare for these invites? :0)

I don't know if you received my email about the A/G blog ring code needing added to your blog. If you need help with anything, just ask! Many blessings! ~Sharon~

Hey hoosier family:
1. There are names on all those papers that people filled out on Sunday. It was a challenge at the end of the message.
2. The theme of the Easter Service is HELP I need somebody. You can see our art work at Evan's blog here: http://tinyurl.com/ysoosu
3. We are getting a goal to have largest attendance ever,
4. Our church is beginning to shift to a more outward thinking mission. It's not about us, but all about them.

It's exciting.
