Ahh, how refreshing to have a church name! Yesterday morning our “moderator,” Rick, welcomed everyone to the service by saying, “Welcome to Ocean City whatever-we’re-called Church!” It was pretty funny, but I’m glad we now have a name to stand on.
Now there’s so much we can do: get a website, design a logo, put up a new sign, and do the whole shirts/ pens/ mugs/ stickers/ etc. thing. It’ll also be great to set up a new email address, because it’s pretty embarrassing having my email as pastorn8@sonrisechurch.cc when it’s almost June and I haven’t been on staff at SonRise since the end of March!
Over the summer, our job will be to do a church-wide Bible study on the purposes of the church. We’ll develop a purpose statement to guide everything we do as a church. We’ll also need to implement children’s ministries and provide training for greeters, ushers, and small group leaders. Throw in a budget and elder board, and we’re all ready to run a publicity blitz at the end of summer or beginning of fall, tying it in with a high-impact series.
CrossWay Church is moving ahead!
