A good church greeting, or church welcome can have a number of values. Here are a few:
Hospitality: A warm and friendly greeting can make visitors feel welcome and accepted at a church. This can be especially important for those who may be new to the church or who may be visiting for the first time.
Community: Greetings can help to create a sense of community and belonging within the church. By actively reaching out and greeting others, church members can show that they care about each other and are invested in building relationships.
Inclusivity: A welcoming greeting can help to create an inclusive and diverse environment within the church. This can be especially important for those who may feel marginalized or excluded in other areas of society.
Evangelism: A friendly greeting can also be an opportunity to share the love of Christ with others. By welcoming people with a warm and open heart, church members can show the love of God to those around them and potentially lead others to a relationship with Jesus.
Overall, a good church greeting, or church welcome can help to create a warm, welcoming, and inclusive atmosphere within the church, which can be beneficial for both members and visitors.
For instance, whether it’s a theme of unity, a welcome speech for Easter Sunday, or even a welcome for Christmas Sunday, you are sure to find a greeting template you can easily modify and use!
Greetings in Jesus!
Isaiah 60:1 tells us this: Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you.
As you know, this scripture was written by the prophet Isaiah hundreds of years before Jesus was born!
Today, we continue to celebrate this wonderful Savior, Jesus Christ came to be not only “a” light to the world but “THE” light that would be needed to guide us!
Veterans Day is a public holiday that is dedicated to honoring anyone who has served in the United States military. The holiday began as a day to remember the end of World War I and was declared a holiday by President Woodrow Wilson in 1919. Originally known as Armistice Day, the holiday became Veterans Day in 1954. It is always officially observed on November 11th.
We would like to extend a warm welcome to you and are thrilled you chose to attend this special Thanksgiving Eve Service.
Quite often, during these busy days of fellowship, feasting, and football the most important thing can be overlooked. What is that? It is giving thanks to God for His outpouring of bountiful blessings in our lives.
We are so glad to have you with us today here at (NAME OF CHURCH)! This is a very special day as we take the time to “give honor where honor is due” and recognize and appreciate the Pastor(s) of our church during this Pastor's Appreciation Month.
Whether this is your first time with us or you are a regular attendee, we want you to know how much we appreciate having you here with us. We trust you will enjoy the service while experiencing the wonderful presence of the Lord as the service progresses.
We will take some time during this service to let our Pastor(s) and families know that we appreciate them so much. We value their ministry and will not only support them today, but will love and pray for them throughout the year. We trust you will join us!
Whether you are joining us today on-site or online, we certainly want to take a few moments to welcome everyone who is joining us today!
We have said it many times but will repeat it: “We live in challenging times”! At the beginning of 2020, many Grandparents found themselves on the other side of a door or window as you “visited” with your Grandchildren. Your arms ached either to hold your Grandchild or at least to give them a good hug!
But alas, we were told to be sure to maintain “social distancing” and hold back on those natural and God-given instincts.
