LAKESIDE COMMUNITY PRESBYTERIAN CHRUCH:
YOU ARE THE BEST ADVERTISEMENT FOR CHURCH

 
You may think, “I can’t invite someone to church. It would be embarrassing, or it might be offensive to the person I talk with.”
 
But I will say it again . . .
 
YOU ARE THE BEST ADVERTISEMENT FOR THIS CHURCH
 
The best way to grow a church is person-to-person, relationship-by-relationship. A person is going to come because you invite them. If LCPC is to grow, it is going to come from you inviting a friend, a family member, a neighbor or a co-worker. It is going to come because you are excited about your love for Jesus and His church.
 
Maybe you have invited that person in the past and they said “NO.” Well ask again. Maybe this time they will say “No, Thank You.” And maybe the next time you ask, God may be tugging at their heart, they will be ready to come and say, “What time does church start?”
 
This is the perfect season to do the inviting. You have a great opportunity to invite friends and family to our Palm Sunday Worship service, Holy Week Communion services, Good Friday service and Easter Sunday Worship Celebration. We are even going to be making it fun to do the inviting.
 
This Sunday we will have flyers that you can give to a neighbor or a friend. But these aren’t just flyers, they are going to be attached to an Easter egg that you can attach to a neighbor’s door or hand out to one of their children. This will be an easy opportunity to let people know what is happening at LCPC during Easter Week.
 
Don’t forget . . .
 
YOU ARE THE BEST ADVERTISEMENT FOR THIS CHURCH
 
So pray, then go and invite, and see what God might do.
