Welcoming Congregations
Welcoming is how we show kindness, acceptance, and hospitality to everyone - guests and members alike. People catch glimpses of Christ through their encounters with us. In a nation that's becoming more unchurched all the time, we need to ensure that seekers encounter in us a Christ that they want to know better. Your welcoming efforts play a vital role in living the promise of "Open hearts" with the seekers coming to your church as a result of the national United Methodist advertising.
The Inviting Ministry Team supports and encourages congregations in the Northwest Texas Conference to be a Welcoming Congregation. Click here to learn more about becoming a Welcoming Congregation.
The Communication Office of the Northwest Texas Conference will offer Welcoming training through the Communication Training Program. More information will be available soon.
