The only way the Church will draw more people to itself, is by getting back to the basic. The basic is JESUS CHRIST saves, we must stop making excuses for ourselves and focus on JESUS CHRIST. Programs and Activities are all good but in the end it is only what we do for JESUS CHRIST that will last. The Church is a Body of Baptized Believers in CHRIST, the Church is not some kind of activety center or any other kind of social club. If we do not attend Church to receive a deeper relationship with JESUS CHRIST then we should just stay home. JESUS CHRIST was, is and shall always be the center of CHURCH. Men, Women and Children are all welcome into the Church but the focus is CHRIST and not some kind of getting to know our neighbour social event on friday night at a Bowling alley. Look up,stay up and Pray up, HE will soon Appear. This is a joke, in that we are always trying to get more people to come to the Church.
