Our attendances have been doing well for the summer. Last Sunday we had 114 during the worship hour. Let’s keep up the good work. It was nice to have visitors again this past Sunday. Churches that invite others or bring others are churches that are growing. The reason is that their interest lies with people. People are the ones that really make a church, not church programs.

I have a unique opportunity to invite people on regular bases. I meet all kind of people and I hear their fears, disappointments, and disillusionments. Many are critical about the church because they have had a bad experience. Satan does all he can to misrepresent the church. After I have listened, I do talk to them about Christ and invite them to our congregation. Many never come but a few do. The few that come out weigh the many invitations not accepted. We must never get discouraged when it comes to inviting others to Christ or to the services of the church. Jesus said that we are salt and light. We can and we do make a difference.

Belonging to a church family, brings many blessing to our life. Our constant fellowship and worship times together bring out the best in us. A church family helps us to focus on the needs of others instead of our individual wants and preference. Our church family provides us with many spiritual blessings and lasting memories. So pray for the church and invite others. You will be glad you did.

Let’s all do all we can for the Lord. Love, Brother John
