I am praying my pastor will bless me to begin and lead a women’s ministry at our small church. Your guides are awesome and I’ll refer to them often as I progress.

Thanks God for your ministry, it is truth that we don’t pay to much attention to new people. Is been happening in my church lately, we need to start giving the new visitors a very warming welcome. Thank you, God bless!

Great! I have adopted, as the key word for our work this year, and the word is “intentional”! Thanks so much for this article and your ministry!

In reply to Sandy. Sandy, I am so glad you shared that! We like to think it doesn't happen, but it does. All the time. So thankful your church was able to love on her while she was there!

I go to a small church. A few years ago we had a visitor and to hear her talk her life was saved by someone conecting with her. She had moved to town not met a single person in three months she had been to several churches in the area and no one had even acknowledged her, until she came to our church. Her and her family eventually moved on, but this has been a big reminder to me of how important each visitor is and you never know their story until you stop to hear it.

In reply to Sandra Monroe.

Sandra, I SO appreciate your comments! I know we’ve felt that way before too – like we were still on the outside…

Our Pastor at our current church often says people are like Legos. They only have so many holes. Some are bigger Lego pieces and like to connect with many people and have an empty space or two. Other people’s Legos are already filled up. I can’t relate to being filled up – but some folks just don’t want to expand their circle of friends. I’m learning not to get so bothered by those who are not interested in including others…But like you, I feel it’s what Jesus calls us to do!

Praying God will bless you with the deep friendships and relationships you desire!
