1. Linda and I had some couples over on Christmas Eve and one small part of the conversation was that often times new people start attending church the first few Sundays of every year. One couple there started attending FMC the first Sunday in January 1979 and have been here ever since. Why do I tell you this? There will be many new attenders whom God is bringing to FMC these next few weeks. Be sure to be as friendly as you always are. Invite everyone you do not yet know, or do not know well, to get coffee and donuts with you in the foyer. Also invite them to your small church.
2. Many people start new devotional habits in January. Check out the links on the FMC website for helpful ideas.
