Stop right there because this is where a lot of you might be right now. <br /><br />So, let's say, that you are already meeting in a building and have church visitors coming on a regular basis... Alright then, let me encourage you to make those special guests to your assembly and/or Bible class, etc. feel special and welcome.<br /><br />Perhaps, something on this website might be helpful to you as you try to make your visitors feel welcomed and appreciated... <a href="http://www.RedRoseStickers.com">www.RedRoseStickers.com</a><br /><br />J.

However, during the movie we had plenty of time to forget all of those announcements including the worship times for Sunday morning. This was a mistake.<br /><br />Here's the tip to help you get these <strong>church visitors</strong> to return. (You might think it is simple but I wanted to remind you anyway.) Here's the tip -- Give something printed to your church visitors when they come so they will have it when they return home... something like a newsletter, etc.<br /><br />And here's a bonus tip -- Give your <strong>church visitors</strong> a magnet for their refrigerator with the name of your church's website, phone number, worship times, etc. This will be something colorful that your <strong>church visitor</strong> will not want to throw away.<br /><br />J.

Or the members of your church might bring sodas and snacks for these visitors to enjoy.<br /><br />J.

Have a meeting next week with some of the other members of your local church to discuss.<br /><br />You might want to invite the poor, widows, handicapped, lonely,etc. -- They can come to this special event and then maybe they'll decide to visit your church again for a worship service in the future. This is one step in the Evangelism process.<br /><br />Let me know how it goes; won't you?<br /><br />See the verses from the <strong>new testament</strong> below that talk about this:<br />16 Then He said to him, “A certain man gave a great supper and invited many, 17 and sent his servant at supper time to say to those who were invited, ‘Come, for all things are now ready.’ 18 But they all with one accord began to make excuses. The first said to him, ‘I have bought a piece of ground, and I must go and see it. I ask you to have me excused.’ 19 And another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to test them. I ask you to have me excused.’ 20 Still another said, ‘I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.’ 21 So that servant came and reported these things to his master. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here the poor and the maimed and the lame and the blind.’ 22 And the servant said, ‘Master, it is done as you commanded, and still there is room.’ 23 Then the master said to the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. 24 For I say to you that none of those men who were invited shall taste my supper.’” -- Luke 14:16ff<br /><br />Here's to your Evangelism success in 2009,<br />J.

Give the visitors to your church a New Testament or other item as a free gift when they come for the first time.<br /><br />2) Train your greeters to be friendly, smile and shake people's hands. Also try to get eye contact with these guests when they first meet.<br /><br />3) Offer services that reach out to people in your local community -- like marriage counseling, tax advice, debt elimination services, etc.<br /><br />Please share a comment with your ideas about how to reach out to church visitors.<br /><br />Here's to Your Evangelism success,<br />J.
