Bible Study and STORM Updates

All youth Bible Studies will meet at the church Fellowship Hall at 5:30 for dinner and 6pm for our church-wide "Church Growth Now" Training. I encourage everyone, Below is a note from the Speaker:

Through the eyes of a first time guest. . .
I was delighted to be a first time guest at Lufkin FUMC on December 27th. I attended worship at 8:40 and 11:00 in order to conduct a Mystery Guest Audit in preparation for the Grow Church Now learning opportunity to be held at Lufkin FUMC on Wednesday, January 13th in the Fellowship Hall. Meal at 5:30 pm training at 6:00 pm. As a Mystery Guest, I see, hear, and sense everything through the eyes of a first time guest. I will share the results of my visit during our time together on January 13th. This is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate what you are doing with excellence at Lufkin FUMC and to set priorities for minor improvements. We will also learn from what other churches are doing throughout the Texas Conference.
I encourage you to mark your calendar for January 13th and to plan now to be a part of this motivating, educational, and encouraging Grow Church Now learning opportunity.
This is not just for ushers or greeters, it is for every single person who is willing to welcome the stranger into life at Lufkin FUMC. See you soon.
Serving Christ with you,
Jan Floro
