Visitor Outreach-

I would like to direct attention to a great article on Christianitytoday.com.
Visitor Assimilation, it's not rocket science, is a great look at what we as church members should be doing to attract and keep visitor attention. And as it says, it's not rocket science. It is actually common sense that requires constant vigilence.

Visitors make their descisions about a church in the last ten minutes they spend there. So we have all that time to make good! Try and start a three minute conversation after service with a new visitor and that conversation will probably last five time that long and be something that can truly affect that person's spiritual path.
If every member chooses to recognize three new faces each Sunday, we would never have anyone fall through the cracks. Everyone would be welcomed and invited to join, eager to return and happy to get involved.
This should be our goal because we have all been there and we know what wonderful things Epworth can offer to all.
