Have you equipped your church with the tools they need to invite friends?

3. New Believers

Are you prepared for God to bless your church with new believers?

4. Servants

Have you challenged those who don’t serve to get involved in some way for Easter? It’s a great first step for some.

5. Outreach

Do you have a plan for outreach that includes Facebook, mail, phone calls and some other creative way to get the word out about your services?

6. Google

Have you invested in some adwords that will direct people to your website?
