Mission is not always what many people
think! It does not mean knocking on doors or accosting
people in the grocery store. It can be much more subtle
than that, yet very effective!
If you wear a shirt with our church
logo on it while you run your errands or if you drink
your coffee at work out of a mug with the church name
on it, that's Mission. You never know when someone might
just ask you about our church! If we put clever sayings
on the church sign to catch people's attention, that's
Mission. If we put news of what's happening at First
Church in the newspaper, that's Mission. If you talk
about what a great time you had at the last potluck
or at the Christmas Party, that's Mission!
Having a smile on your face and being
welcoming to our guests - whether at worship or another
function at church is very important to reaching out
to others. Also making our church grounds and facility
look warm, cared for and inviting can be a big influence
on outsiders.

faith with others, please consider joining one of the
