One of the most important activities of the church is to draw in people from the outside—whether believers or those who may have never been involved in the church before. The theme, Connecting Newcomers, helps evaluate how welcoming your church is and gives you tools to improve. Helpful topics include: how to foster hospitality on Sunday mornings among regular worship attenders; how to make sure people are not overlooked; and how to encourage members to cultivate commitment.
