Annual Fall Parking Lot Outreach
Reaching our Neighborhood: We love Granite City and we love Jesus. What better way for us to show this than by hosting our neighborhood for a party on our parking lot! If you want to be a part of this great outreach event but missed the meeting on Sunday, please see Pastor Byron so he knows how to plan. 
National Back To Church Sunday began as a movement to invite everyone in America back to church by empowering and motivating church members to invite their family and friends to come with them to a special service hosted by the local church.
The movement was spurred on by a couple of statistics:
“82% of the unchurched are at least somewhat likely to attend church if invited”
–Dr. Thom Rainer, The Unchurched Next Door
Yet only 2% of Christians EVER invite someone to church!
We are sharing videos and more on our social media outlets and our website. Use these tools to invite your family and friends!
If you would like to help canvas our neighborhood with invitations, please see Cindy Keen.
