Jan 25, 2019
1st Friday Devotion

Introduction

Welcome to Bible Baptist Church's Stick, Not Slide event! We are excited to offer you an opportunity to learn the art of connecting with guests and making them feel at home. Whether you are a regular churchgoer or a newcomer to our community, this event is designed to equip you with valuable techniques to enhance your ministry experience.

Why Connecting with Guests Matters

Connecting with guests is an essential aspect of building a thriving church community. It allows us to make a positive and lasting impression on visitors, making them more likely to return and become active members of our congregation. By learning effective connection strategies, we can create an environment that fosters faith, belonging, and personal growth.

The Art of Connecting with Guests

During Stick, Not Slide, we will dive into various techniques that can help you establish meaningful connections with guests. These techniques include:

1. Active Listening

Active listening is an invaluable skill when engaging with guests. By truly hearing and understanding their stories, needs, and expectations, we can address their concerns and provide appropriate guidance. Our speakers will share insights and advice on how to actively listen and empathize, ensuring that every guest feels heard and valued.

2. Personalized Welcoming

Every guest is unique, and their needs may differ. We will discuss how to create a personalized welcoming experience that caters to individual preferences. From greeting visitors with a warm smile to offering guidance on finding their way around our campus, we believe that personalized welcomes go a long way in making guests feel at ease.

3. Building Authentic Relationships

A church community thrives on authentic relationships. We will explore ways to nurture genuine connections with guests by being approachable, open, and available to answer questions or provide support. Our team of experienced leaders will guide you through the process of building trust and fostering meaningful relationships that extend beyond Sunday services.

4. Follow-Up and Ongoing Support

Connecting with guests doesn't end at their initial visit. During Stick, Not Slide, we will emphasize the importance of follow-up and ongoing support. From sending personal notes to connecting them with relevant ministries or small groups, we are committed to ensuring that guests feel supported and encouraged, even after they leave our church premises.

Enhancing Your Ministry Experience

Learning the art of connecting with guests not only benefits our visitors but also enriches our ministry experience. By creating a welcoming and inclusive environment, we pave the way for spiritual growth, discipleship, and a stronger sense of community within Bible Baptist Church.
