Happy Hour

Where it came from…

• One pastor’s idea for welcoming people in
• Get to know one another in the congregation
• Invites neighbors, friends, strangers in a comfortable setting to know the Body of Christ

 

How…

• 5-8pm or time of your choosing
• 2nd Friday of the month or steady date each month
• email invites, verbal invites
• prep and plan appetizers, drinks
• budget

 

Why? The Purpose

• relational ministry
• inviting the unchurched, the churched, the church across the street
• no agenda, no prayer, no Bible study
• transparency in ministry
• giving people a new perspective of the church
• a time of rest and conversation in busy life
