On the Road

We have visited churches while we travelled in the past and were looking forward to finding one on our drive up Route 81 to Winchester, but just couldn’t make the connection. Most of the churches Jan located either had no website or their service times were difficult to locate on the phone when time was of the essence. I wonder how many churches, with this information out there, might have visitors, even people living near the church.

A good way to gauge how well you are promoting your worship might be to ask someone who doesn’t attend your church what they know about it.

On the way home we also noticed many churches with no signage indicating the name or denomination, making it a real challenge for travelers or neighbors to guess about attending there. Sometimes our visits require a combination of GPS and dead reckoning, but it shouldn’t always be that trying.

Our prayer:
Lord, we pray for the churches that get lost in the dust of the back country roads. Amen.
