Bring Them Back: There are nearly 100 million Americans, including teens and children, who are presently un-churched as people increasingly move away from attending church and practicing religion. Back to Church Sunday is a springboard to help churches become outreach-focused throughout the year to reach these millions of people. It is a movement designed to help churches reach their communities by providing an easily implemented “invite-able” event that gives church members a reason to invite, and gives people a reason to try church again or for the first time.
Utilize the event page on Facebook, the videos and images shared there and the invitations that are at the church to invite someone to church with you on Sunday.

Saturday, September 19

4-7pm

Reaching our community with the love of Jesus is paramount to our church’s vision and mission. Letting our neighbors know that not only are we here but we are here FOR them should be a primary focus of every believer who calls GCFirst “home.”
GCFirst Fun Fest is a fun way for us to be the hands and feet of Jesus in a practical way by providing a fun, laid back, family-friendly event for people to attend and get to know the heart of GCF.
We’re looking forward to this Saturday and hope you plan to be a part of this great afternoon! it’s not too late to plug in and find a place to serve!
