Family and Friend Day

I am sitting here thinking about last Sunday and wow!, what a crowd we had between the two services. Our final numbers reflect that we had 328 people on our campus after deducting the duplicates from both services. While that is a phenomenal victory, the real victory is in the number of lives that were impacted. We intentionally set out to invite the unchurched crowd to our services and we had a great response. Pastor Lori reported that she had 26 kids respond to the invitation to accept Christ as their Lord and Savior in Kids Inc. and I had at least three respond in the second worship service. PTL!
I'm sitting here wondering just how many of those folks will be back tomorrow...or the next Sunday? Will they be drawn to get involved in one of our discipleship classes? That's the real key........discipleship. Helping people connect to Jesus and then grow into a disciple.............that is someone who is like Jesus!!
