Visitors Welcome!!!!!
The Worship and Evangelism Committee has worked on organizing visitations to our shut-ins. There are currently 12 people on the shut-in list that need visits from our
congregation. Since it may be difficult to make that first “Cold-Call”, we have put together a guide line to help. Please remember our members who can no longer get to church still want and need the fellowship that church provides. Please consider using some of your valuable time to share with someone who can no longer join us at church.
First – if we have missed anyone from our list, or you would like a home visit from a member, please let Pastor or the church secretary know of your request.
As a Visitor, What do I do?
1. Plan on the average visit being about 30 minutes.
2. Be prepared with some small talk to start. For example: weather, family, church, history, gardening, activities they used to do. Find out about them and their wonderfully blessed lives.
3. If you feel comfortable, have a short prayer with them
The next time you are in church, fill out the visitor book with date and comments. For example, do they have a favorite snack that could be brought, are they diabetic, some points for future visits, or a favorite conversation you had, do they have pets, etc. Since you may not always visit the same person, these are good things for all visitors to know.
If you are interested in helping, sign the book on the visitor list page. Visit whenever you can. There are no limits, but we do ask that you check the book to see if anyone hasn’t had a visit for a while. Our expectation is that each of the shut-ins are visited once a month by someone from the church other than pastor. That is a lofty goal, but with many hands, the task is small.
If you want to talk to someone before getting your feet wet, ask Pastor Brian, Sandy Marty, Cindy Wildenberg or Mari Roedig.
Stewardship lasts all year…… We need you, they need you, God needs you to help.
