Sunday School Enrollment Month

9/3/2017

1 Comment

 
We begin our Sunday School Enrollment Month today. Our Sunday School teachers, and leadership will be contacting, encouraging and challenging every class throughout our Sunday School ministry to grow by enrolling new members throughout the month. We are praying that God will bless our church family by helping us enroll at least 35 new members during the month. We now have around 130 members on roll. In order for us to reach and maintain an attendance of 100 people every week, we will need to have 200 members enrolled. The rule-of-thumb in Sunday School is that you reach 50% of your enrollment each week in attendance. That rule holds true here at Grace. During the month of August our Sunday School attendance averaged 77 each Sunday. That number amounts to 57% of our enrollment. You can see why it is vital that we increase enrollment in order to grow in our attendance.
 
Pray about people you know; friends, neighbors and family members who are not a part of a Bible study small group. Think about our friends and family who attend worship, but do not attend Sunday School.
 
Pray for the opportunity to talk to those with whom you work and are not attending Bible study and church. Write their names down and pray that God will give you an opportunity to talk with them about what God is doing here at Grace and how you would like them to join you in the study of God’s word.

YOU ARE THE KEY TO SUCCESS!
 
All of you have a circle of influence that, when contacted and enlisted, will result in continued growth.
  • KEEP ON talking about the miracles God is doing in your church.
  • KEEP ON inviting unchurched and unsaved people to join you on Sunday.
  • KEEP ON praying that God will touch hearts and draw people to His church.
  • KEEP ON believing that God will give us victory when we ask for it and trust him to grant it.
 
“Take delight in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.” (Psalm 37:4)
 
Today is CHILDREN’S DAY in Sunday School. We now have 29 children enrolled. When you add the children who attended Vacation Bible School and are not yet enrolled in Sunday School, the potential growth within our children’s Sunday School ministry almost doubles. Our children’s leaders named 47 children who could be reached. Think about this. Of the 35 new members we are asking God to give us this month, 18 of them could be children.
  • Pray for our children’s work.
  • Pray for our children’s leaders: Michelle Peppers, Caroldean Childers, Amy Ferguson, Margaret Douglas, Debra Pethel, Melissa Callahan.
  • Pray for our parents.
 
Once we reach children who do not attend Sunday School, we will have a great opportunity to reach their moms and dads. Pray that God will give our parents the vision and determination to become a regular part of Sunday School along with their little ones.

Thank you for sharing this motivational post. We should always keep praying to the Lord. It's our way of communicating with God and enriching our faith. If we keep on praying, we can succeed all our struggles in school and in life. I believe that the Lord will guide us in this new term and will lead us into a happy school year.

The Bible is not a book you finish reading.
It is a book that you read so that it may finish you.
