Do you want more First Time Church Visitors

to come back a second time?

Of course you do.

Date: Thursday 29th January

Now you are busy into the start of the  year 2010

Church visitors come in record numbers this time of year as they want to start new patterns in their life.

Even more church visitors will come this January out of new commitments to grow spiritually.

But some of your first time church visitors don’t come back.

The survival of your church depends on visitors coming back and connecting with your church (from a human point of view, anyway).

Your church growth in part depends on helping people connect and form relationships.

The first step to a return visit starts with a great first impression.

A good first impression can lead to a second visit.

A second visit leads to a third.

Additional visits provide more opportunity for relational connections with your visitor.

Connecting visitors with your church

starts with great first impressions.

But to a first time church visitor — do you make a great first impression?

How do you know?

How can you find out?

Let me ask you this: Do you know when a visitor forms their impression of a church’s friendliness?

The answer will surprise you.

It surprised the researchers after thousands of focus groups. I’ve included this new research from February of 2009 and you will be as surprised as the researchers.

It was not they expected after years of church growth research.

How to Greet Welcome Church VisitorsYou’ve been searching on the issue

for stuff that is in this ebook: How to Welcome Church Visitors

Chris Walker’s “How to Welcome Church Visitors” is as relevant for the UK scene as it is for the USA.

He invites us to strike the right balance between people’s need for personal space and their need to feel welcomed; asks what impression we give through the way we care for our premises; and considers how we extend hospitality in simple, practical ways.

Most of his observations can be acted on without the need for cultural translation (except, perhaps, the American provision of “bathrooms” instead of “toilets”!)

He fully recognizes that there is a God-factor that is outside of our control, but he does offer down-to-earth, practical factors that are properly our responsibility.

These are not churchy gimmicks but straightforward acts of kindness, care and consideration that help visitors want to come back. It’s surprising how ‘obvious’ they are, and how easily they are overlooked!

A How To Manual
First Impressions to Welcome Church Visitors

You want real life steps for church hospitality that you can implement this very weekend.

Perhaps you were recently recruited to serve on your church’s hospitality committe.

Perhaps you were asked to start your church’s hospitality ministry.

Perhaps you’ve been asked to train your church hospitality team.

Perhaps you’ve been appointed to figure out how to warm up your church’s welcome.

You don’t need to recreate the wheel.  You just need to somewhere to start.

This book maps out a plan for you and raises questions to help you apply it where you are.

This book is a practical ‘how-to’ manual on creating a better first impression to welcome visitors to church.

Highlight it, mark it up, and give it to your church hospitality teams.

That’s how nearly 550 buyers as of December 2009 are using this book.  Others are giving it to their visitation teams, parking lot teams, greeter teams.

Use it for your church hospitality training like others are doing.

Times Change.

It’s not the 80s.

It’s not the 90s.

You need fresh information.

I know these books on church hospitality are out there.

As I’ve taught seminars on this subject, implemented many of these in my own church, read a bunch of books on church hospitality, church greeters, and assimilation, I have come to this conclusion:

You don’t want outdated stale marketing gimmicks.

You don’t want complicated post-visit assimilation processes.

You don’t want to scare your visitor away with cheesy posters from the 1980s.

You want your visitor to come back a second time!

Chris Walker hits the target with his new e-book “How to Welcome A Church Visitor.”

You will laugh and maybe weep at the truly down-to-earth life stories and the photographs, but more than that you will learn how to think like a visitor and practice holy hospitality that makes a difference.

Love is a verb when it comes to living out our faith. One of the best opportunities for Christian action in our churches comes when a new person arrives at the front door.

From A to Z, Chris Walker covers what to do next and how to enjoy the blessing of welcoming guests.

What an amazing difference it would make if more churches would practice the simple recommendations that fill this book.

– Ron Crandall Professor Emeritus, Asbury Theological Seminary Executive Director, SCLI/ABIDE

I like the simplicity of the book because it makes for an easy read.  I now have a clearer picture of the greeters role and will take this to my team when we meet this weekend.  We were also wondering what to include in the welcome packets that we planned to put together.  We had some ideas and some samples from other churches and your suggestions are also helpful.

I can’t thank you enough for clearing things up for me.  It will certainly make my job a lot easier.  I don’t feel like I’m spinning in circles anymore.

Bless you,
Ina

How To Welcome Church Visitors is a well-written, thought-provoking resource that is going to be a blessing to anyone who reads and applies it’s content to their church needs.

This book is especially important to me, as I serve on my church evangelism board and recently volunteered to manage our greeter program.

The section on greeting was the most relevant to me!
You’ve given me some tips I can put to use instantly!
– Lindsay, AR.

We are passing your How to Welcome Church Visitors book around the Session, the Elders are reading it. I encouraged them to make notes in the margin as to their thoughts, ideas, responses, etc. I, however, found it to be very helpful.

Probably the best overall thing was a sense of encouragement, that there are practical steps our little country church can do.

Sometimes you just quit noticing things because you see them all the time; they don’t register any more.  With your hospitality audit, we noticed almost 50 small things we could fix right away for very little money.

This is the book we should have written!

We have been giving church hospitality workshops for over 15 years and of the 25 or more books we have used in the past, yours is by far the best contribution to the field.

We’ve been photocopying the cover and telling our client churches that if they want to start improving their first impressions, they should start here with How To Welcome Church Visitors.

My biggest fear is that our church would have a visitor come for three weeks and not one of our members would say hello.  As the chairperson of our hospitality committee, I looked for resources to help us and Chris’s stuff gave us practical steps we could do to help prevent that from happening.
