One way we grow is by being welcoming, honoring and inclusive of diversity. Do an audit of your space and programs, including Religious Education programs and worship. Explore the environments for Religious Education programming. Look at every thing in each room, in each space. If your parking lot is always full, expand it, find other spaces, or add a second service.
People hesitate to walk more than a block to church.
Setting up more chairs provides a more positive note than looking at empty ones. Remind members that welcoming newcomers is everybody's job, not just that of the designated committee members. Organize a program of direct mail advertising. Do a demographic study of your community. See how your membership compares with the community around you and make knowledgeable decisions about folks that you might try to attract in the future.
