Possible 3rd Worship Service!?!?

Over the past few weeks we've experienced an increase in our worship attendance at all our campuses and venues.  While growth is not our goal (glorifying Jesus is), we are excited because MORE people are hearing God's Word and MORE people are experiencing God's love for them.

However, this growth is not without its challenges (but they are the ones we like to have).  At our Dalton campus, we have very little room to add more people, especially at our 11:00 service time ... and this is the time a guest is most likely to show up!! There have been occasions where people have left because they could not find a seat!!  The challenge for us is "What do we do? How do we respond to the 'increase' God is giving us?"

In Calhoun the answer is keep inviting people!!  Keep loving those God sends! Fill up the Civic Auditorium and then add another service!!

In Dalton, the answer is less obvious.  However, we are considering adding a THIRD WORSHIP SERVICE!! Additional services help us free up seats and perhaps reach more people at more times.  The big question is "When?" We are looking at three options and want to survey our church about which option might be best.  Please be in prayer and ask God to give us His wisdom and direction.  Also please remember that at this time we are only considering this option, nothing has been decided.

As you read these options, ask yourself "Which option would have the most appeal to an unchurched person?" AND "Which option (if any) would I attend?

8:15 or 8:30 am SUNDAY MORNING: for early risers and those who like to get the day started quickly

12:30 or 1:00 pm SUNDAY AFTERNOON: for late risers

THURSDAY EVENING (between 6 and 6:30 pm): could be attractive to people who work on weekends (i.e. shift workers), weekend travelers, and college students

If you would be willing to regularly attend and support any of these services, please complete the survey by clicking the link below:
