A Letter to Faith from Pastor Mike

I'm very excited for what God has in store for us this Fall at Faith!  I've been meeting with ministry leaders and moving ahead with a really cool new direction in 2012 that will radically transform who we are as followers of Jesus.
Before we get to the new year, we have some great opportunities to touch our community in a positive way.  Saturday, August 28th from 11 AM to 2 PM is our annual "Back to School Block Party."  We'll have all of our inflatables up that day, provide lunch, children's activities, and give away school supplies.  We need "all hands on deck" for this one so we can get to know everyone who comes to Faith's parking lot on that special day. 
The second event is our "Back to Church Sunday" event on September 18th.  We're participating with thousands of churches across our country, inviting our family, friends and acquaintances to be at Faith on that special day.  I've already invited my friends - how about you? 
Did you know that 82% of those you invite will come to church with you?  Did you also know that only 2% of all American Christians actually invite people to church.  With stats like these we're reminded of how easy it is to step out and have a positive experience!  Perhaps we should make every Sunday, "Back to Church Day?"  Invite your friends that Sunday, it's going to be a great day! 
The best is yet to come!
