Yesterday we were blessed at Grace Community Church with a production crew filming for a new reality television show featuring families who raise special needs children. The Garcia family have hearts bigger than most of us can imagine. They have one child with downs syndrome, but their desire is to adopt another one. They already have the child placed on their heart and are just waiting until God provides the resources. You can read more about the Garcia’s HERE.
Hypothetically (or maybe not), how would one grow a church that had no young families? Any suggestions on the matter would be greatly appreciated.
Our church is 3 ½ years old. We have learned a lot in that time, but each day we realize we have so much more to learn. We usually look to newer churches to get inspiration, simply because they are closest to doing things the way we do them, but recently I was reminded that there are things I should learn from much older churches.
