Dear Sanctuary Church

Dear Sanctuary Church,

I wish you an great Thanksgiving.

Let me tell you how thankful I am that I get to serve you at Sanctuary. There are no words
to describe the incredible honor of getting to pastor such a great church.

While church attendance is declining in America, God has remarkably blessed Sanctuary with
over 400 adults and children now attending every Sunday.

This past Sunday it got a bit intense while talking about “The Fight of Your Life.”
I was blown away to meet a man after the service who recognized “its time” and committed his life to Jesus.
He went public and declared, “I Believe” during the service. I could tell it was real for him and he had
been touched by the Spirit of God. Awesome!

The Kingdom advances ONE person at a time.

Hey- keep in mind that this Holiday season, there will be more newcomers checking out Sanctuary.
Here is what I want to ask you… PLEASE WELCOME THEM! Its EASY to recognize newcomers!

Newcomers are not hard to identify… they have that “first time” look about them… trying
to find there way around campus, or sorting out where to go… finding a seat.

We can welcome they by…

Greeting them – just be yourself and introducing yourself
Answering questions
Engaging those who are receptive
Offering an expression of hospitality like they were in your home…

That’s it.

Have a God Blessed Thanksgiving!
