Loving our Church Family | Rev. Wil Cantrell

Belonging to a church family requires us to demonstrate love for each other through our words and actions. One simple way to do this is to be intentional about implementing the 3-minute 10-foot rule before and after each worship service. We need to extend a warm greeting of welcome not only to those that we already know but also to people who are unfamiliar to us. By being welcoming and hospitable we extend the love of Christ to others and make them feel loved and appreciated. Another way to demonstrate love for our church family is to volunteer in one of our many Sunday morning and Wednesday evening Welcoming ministries, serve as a Sunday School teacher or Nursery worker, or volunteer in our Children or Youth ministries. Paul tells us that the body of Christ is comprised of people who use their particular skill-set and passions to serve the church. When we find our unique place to serve we demonstrate our love for our church family as the body of Christ.
