The How & What of First Impressions

Let's start with what we're about ... our mission: Know Jesus, Grow in faith, and Go do great things. How does that look in First Impressions? Listen to what Laurie Reeves has to say about the what and how of First Impressions.
Remember these tips while serving in First Impressions, no matter what area you are in.
  • Smile.
  • Be relational over informational.
  • Engage with kids.
  • Be willing to be inconvenienced; we're here to serve!
  • Recognize that we don't know what brought someone here.
  • Point out important places in the building--help them orient.
  • Ask if they'd fill out a New Here card.
  • Take the initiative each week to greet someone you don't know; even if you've seen them in church for a while.

"No one walks through our doors by accident; they are divine appointments waiting to happen." Mark Batterson
