Healthy Congregations have Vision!

 

February 15, 2015 gathering

 

The point everyone agreed on was that we want to stay together as a church family.  The question now becomes:  How do we accomplish this?

 

What did we offer in the past that attracted people to COTC?

-          People felt that we were a welcoming congregation that offered warmth and acceptance.

What are some suggestions for inviting people to visit or return to COTC?

-          Improve visibility with a sign that can be seen

-          Ads in newspapers and community newsletters

Personal contact i.e. calling visitors and those who do not attend frequently

 

What are some ways we might motivate ourselves and also new members/visitors?

     Glow sticks handed our during service as symbol of lighting our way to a new beginning

    A revival meeting to which community members could be invited
