Opening Doors at Christmas Time

What a tremendous series we concluded this past weekend!

It’s exciting to see so many of you taking steps to reach out to the “one” in your life. As we share Thanksgiving time with our families this week, let me encourage you to give thanks in a special way for the people in your life who initially influenced you to follow Jesus. Who was it that reached out to you? Send them a note or reach out to them in person and say thanks.

Christmas is upon us as we begin our new series this weekend. I want to remind you of all the ways that you can Make a Way for the One this Christmas.

  • • Praying and invite someone to Christmas at Pathway. A great way to start the conversation is, “What are your plans for Christmas?”
  • • Subscribe to and read the Pathway Daily Devotionals. This December we will have a special series of Christmas themed devotionals beginning December 1 to keep your heart and activity focused on the true message of Christmas.
  • • Pick up a Family Christmas Calendar filled with great activities to invite and share with others as you count down the days till Christmas.
  • • Go shopping with your children for a family in need in our community or in India through our local and global Heart2Heart projects.
  • Make a special gift to Pathway Church this Christmas through our Big Give so that the environments at all of our campuses can continue to be great places for our “ones.”

More than anything this Christmas, I want to encourage you to make an invitation to someone you know to attend Christmas at Pathway (December 22–24). Your invitation could be the spark that changes their lives forever. Our invites can be the catalyst that helps people understand that God is just a step away this Christmas!
