We will hold a training for volunteers who will be \u201cvisitors\u201d or \u201ccampaign ambassadors\u201d in mid-February, and those trained volunteers will begin reaching out to an initial group of church leaders about the Campaign. This first phase of the Campaign is known as a \u201cquiet phase\u201d.<\/p>\n During this time, we will also be gearing up for an All-Church Campaign Kick-Off Celebration that will be held on\u00a0Sunday, April 8<\/span>\u00a0after the second service. After the Kick-Off, we will reach out to the entire congregation and make sure everyone has an opportunity for a group or individual visit with one of our Campaign volunteers!<\/p>\n If you have any questions about the Campaign, or you are interested in helping with the kick-off celebration or serving as a visitor\/campaign ambassador, please reach out to Campaign Co-chairs Kaki McGeary & Dave Johnson. There are many ways to get involved, and we would be happy to discuss how you might be able to lend a hand.<\/p>\n We will have many more details to share with you as the Campaign unfolds. In the meantime, we greatly appreciate your support, prayers and enthusiasm for the Our Home, Our Future, Our Time Campaign!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Our Home, Our Future, Our Time Campaign begins!
