Come and See, Stay and Learn, Go and Serve

Welcome to
Come and See, Stay and Learn, Go and Serve
Back to Church Sunday September 17th
Theme: Rooted "Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness" (Colossians 2:7) NLT.
This is an opportunity to invite someone to church; a family member, friend, neighbour or even a stranger. Perhaps they have never been to church before, or not for a long time. It all starts with the words "Hey, would you like to come to church with me on Sunday?"
Here are a few reasons why you should invite someone to church:
1. Jesus calls us to do it. If we are truly trying to be more like Jesus then we should mimic how he lived his life. And Jesus was all about relationships, sharing meals, calling the lost to follow and spending time with friends.
2. It can deepen relationships. If you’re living an authentic Christian life, your friends already know a little bit about your belief system, but including them when you attend church lets them see even more of the spiritual side of your life. It leads your friendship into a deeper level. It also makes you vulnerable, and it holds you accountable
3. It’s the loving thing to do. When you really care about someone, you want the best for them. When it comes to eternity, don’t you want your friends to be in heaven with you? Often we are the only authentic (although imperfect) picture of Jesus that our friends will see, we need to love deep enough to risk offending them by sharing the Gospel.
