    Say HELLO to HospitalityIm so proud to work on the team that serves andgreets our members and guests. A dedicated group ofpeople with hospitality hearts are preparing to lead a

    hospitality workshop called HELLO. Our new vision isa simple but intentional approach to hospitality. Weenvision HELLO hospitality. HELLO stands for HelpingEveryone Learn and Love Others. Our purpose is tocreate a culture of hospitality that extends beyondthose wearing ofcial usher/greeter welcome . Truly,the privilege to be hospitable belongs to each of us ---yes you too!

    Imagine your smile, energy, and the welcome with

    which you greet guests to your home. Likewise, wewelcome guests who step through the threshold of

    Gods house.

    Hospitality is both welcoming and inviting. That is,welcoming those who show up at the door as well as

    inviting people to be in relationship with you and laterwith Christ. (Were starting with welcoming, for now).

    HELLO hospitality builds community, it builds up people,it builds up Christs love in and through us, and it buildslearning.

    Two things that might inuence my hospitality:

    Scripture: Welcome one another, therefore, just as

    Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God. Romans

    15:7

    Ive learned that people will forget what you said,

    people will forget what you did, but people will neverforget how you made them feel. Maya Angelou

    If any of this excites or intrigues you we welcome you

    to participate in the hands-on HELLO workshop onMonday, March 7 at 6pm in Whittler Hall. Indicate yourpresence by signing up on our website or on the Sundaytear-off. Below is one way to identify ways to offer

    hospitality. Some of the ways have not been createdand we welcome your participation in creating a new

    method such as the parking greeter wholl consider allfour blocks we sit on as well as the parking garage aslocations where greeters smile, say hello and direct

    people into the church.

    We look forward to seeing you who are already servingin hospitality, those who are interested in serving, as

    well as representativesfrom various ministry

    groups all of you are

    invited!

    Blessings,

    The Hospitality Team
