Every church hopes to have a greater impact on the people around it. Every congregation wants to see new faces and changed hearts. But it can be hard to know how to draw people in and help them want to stay.
These articles can help your church think through the best ways to give invitations, make newcomers welcome, and encourage them to put down roots. NOTE: You have permission to make up to 1,000 copies of this 16-page resource to be distributed in a church or educational setting.
