INVITE A FRIEND TODAY!
God’s Word tells us in 1John 4, “We love, because Jesus first loved us!” Throughout Scripture, we are reminded that our
ultimate goal in life is to take as many people to heaven with us as possible. On Sunday, October 9th, St. John Lutheran will host our next Friendship Sunday, and it will also be Instrumental Sunday. This will be a beautiful service for us to invite our friends and neighbors to.
Most polls indicate that 75-90% of those who visit a church, do so because a friend invited them. If Pastor invites one family to church each week, he will be inviting 50 families this year. But if each of our 150 active families invite one family to church each week, then our church family will be inviting 7,500 families this year. This is how our Lord’s kingdom and His church will grow. In fact, the reason that most people will accept an invitation from a friend to worship is not only because the relationship you have with them; but also because most people view pastors as ‘salesmen’, but they view friends as ‘satisfied customers’.
Please join us in inviting a friend to Friendship/Instrumental Sunday, on October 9th. Our preschool children will also be singing that day. The Lord bless you in your partnership in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
There are postal cards in the back of the church to make inviting easy. Please pick some up and simply mail them to your friends!
