New Strategy for Seeing Fall Festival Guests Return


It's that time of year. Churches everywhere are gearing up for their Fall Festival. We're in the middle of our preparations.

One of the biggest questions churches ask as they prepare is, "How do we see the guests who attend come back on a Sunday for services?"
