New Neighbours

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! Has someone moved into your neighborhood this summer? I was surprised to learn recently that eight point four(8.4)percent of Americans move annually. That means about thirty-nine million people will move this year. And eighty percent of those moves take place between April and Labor Day. So guess what that means?

We have a great opportunity to walk over with a plate of cookies or a pie and welcome the new neighbors to the neighborhood. While chatting, you could ask if they’re looking for a new church home; and if so, suggest yours. Tell them what you like about it. You can even offer to give them a ride or meet them at the church to sit together. If they have children, make sure you know something about your church’s children’s and youth activities. Parents often choose a church with their children in mind.

Let's be welcoming neighbors and pray for the Holy Spirit's leading in every conversation. For more resources, visit our website at sharelifeafrica.org
