Ouside the Walls

These Millennials are keeping us DOING.

One of the BIG changes we have made in our church in the past twenty years is.............we NOW think "outside the box."  We now minister "outside the four walls of the church."

We live in a generation where it is hard to get even Christians to come to church....much less the lost.

SO.....if they won't come to us..............we will go to them.  The Millennials are teaching us that.

The last several months we have:

• Had a Community Tent Revival near the Projects.
• Sponsored a Community Basketball Tournament at the local courts.  (I was a doubter.....I felt we were wasting our Saturday................boy, was I wrong.  We had about 150-200 folks that participated.  Prayer and Devotions were included.
• We have had two picnics at the County Park and had devotions and fed folks.
• We have sponsored a Fishing Tournament and fed the guys.
• We have an upcoming Disc Golf Tournament........moneys made will go back into our GiveHIM Tennessee Project........where we are funding the "community outreach."
• We are planning a Fall Festival at the Community Rec Center near the Projects.

This is just to name a few.  We are stepping OUTSIDE the FOUR WALLS of the CHURCH.

People in the Community, in the town and in the county are beginning to TALK ABOUT Whites Creek Baptist Church.......................we are getting a reputation...........BUT...it is ALL GOOD.

Maybe the Millennials are on to something....................we Baby Boomers have a reputation for planning and committee meeting things to death. 

It's refreshing to DO.
