Please click on this site to read the article, "Inviting, Informing, and Including Newcomers" in The Parish Paper by Cynthia Woolever (July 2018).
As Ms. Woolever says, "Three Pillars of Evangelism. Three complementary efforts serve the congregation’s
ministry goals: inviting, informing, and including
new people. Just like a three-pillared tower, without
one support, the overall purpose becomes unstable.
To invite is to increase the church’s visibility and relevance,
to inform is to offer opportunities for connection,
and to include means spiritual experiences that
promote Christian maturity and growth. Which effort
needs more intention and planning in your congregation?"
