A good name for a church

I was talking to one of our leaders in our Children's area and she was sharing about her son's friend that they'd invited to church at Bay West. They had tried to work out picking him up to come last weekend, but with holidays and stuff, it didn't work out. So, our leader was talking to the mother about arranging a time for the son to come and she said that actually she was going to try a new church in Palm Bay this next weekend in the area.

Our leader asked her which one and she said that it was called "Come as you are" and it met at Heritage High School. She showed our leader a mailer that she got in the mail that had prompted them to go.

That's a picture of it above...and it's actually a mailer that Bay West sent out (minus the "CHURCH" that Photoshop and I added to the picture above) and that's the church they are trying out this weekend. Funny, huh, how God works that out? And that just sealed the deal for them to come, because now they know someone already.

Don't forget to invite your neighbors and your friends, because you never know how God is already working.

We've got some INVITE CARDS that will be on the information table as you come in and go out...pick up a few and give out to friends. They have a map, our website, what's going on the next few weeks in X-Factor, and some special Christmas opportunities that FBC as a whole is doing throughout December.

FYI...we will be having a combined service on Sunday, December 27th at the Melbourne Campus @ 10:30am. It will be a chance for all of FBC Melbourne to get together in one place. CONSEQUENTLY, there will be no services at Heritage High School on December 27th...the rest of the time, we are on the ball as usual.
