You may be wondering what it’s all about. It is an effort to build the sense of community in our area, and in our church. This campaign is going to change all of our lives because this is the one time we align everything from children, youth, and adults to focus on spiritually deepening ourselves and our church.
Neighborhood groups will be meeting in homes and here at the church, once a week for six weeks where we will focus on deepening relationships and serving our communities. In this campaign we’re going the answer the question, “what on earth are WE here for?” and look at how God’s purposes relate to our church and our local community.
In order to get the most out of this campaign, you need to be in a small group! We are asking everyone in our church to participate in the following ways:
Ways You Can Participate
– Put out a 40 Days of Community yard sign. It’s a great way to see who else in your area goes to our church and it provides an opportunity share with your neighbors what 40 Days is all about
– Join or host a 40 Days small group. Your group will meet once a week for six weeks.
– Attend a weekend church service each week. Commit to attending all seven weekends during the campaign.
– Read the 40 daily devotionals based on the “one another” passages found in the Bible and we will all 
read these daily through the six weeks of the campaign.
– Memorize the memory verses. Each of the six weeks includes one verse that we will memorize together as a church.
– Help us to help the community. Participate within your group with whichever community activity is chosen.
40 Days of Community is a step of faith we’ve taken as a church and because you’re involved you’re going to grow too! By getting into a small group you’re not only going to experience all the campaign has to offer, you’re going to make some friends. And we can’t wait to hear the stories of how God has changed your life and the lives of others in our small groups.
Tomorrow we will talk About Being a Host!
