New members must get involved—fast
You’ve seen it before. It’s heart breaking. New members come to your congregation. They attend for a few weeks but never seem to “click.” Before long they are Easter Sunday attenders only. Now you can stop that—forever.

Proven ways to get people involved
There are a few simple things you can do to help new members get involved. These steps are not difficult but most churches don’t think about them and don’t do them.

Complete step-by-step instructions
Welcome to the Family has everything laid out in an easy to use format. These simple instructions guarantee that you will succeed.

Proven, guaranteed methods
This program of involving new members has been used in churches of Christ from coast to coast by people like you who know what is needed in our fellowship.

Say good-bye to the days of trying to adapt and change material developed by theorists in other fellowships who don’t know our situation.

Very little outside preparation
The manual is designed so that the teacher can use it with very little outside preparation. Every minute of each class is planned with clear instructions. Each aspect of the three classes is discussed so the teacher won’t have to do additional preparation.

Led by an Elder
One of the most exciting things about the classes is that an elder teaches. Because there is no need for a lot of outside preparation, this format allows elders to make the most of their time. It saves time because it allows the teacher to be about the real task of shepherding instead of spending his time administering a program.

Help elders minister to new members
New members need direct care from the elders. This will help the leaders to minister to the new members in an enjoyable, easy way that will benefit both the elders and the new members.

All in only three weeks
You’re busy. Your members are busy. No one has time for a drawn out, boring class. Instead new members will have three weeks of fellowship, information and integration.

Information about YOUR congregation!
This material lets you introduce your new members to your congregation. Preprinted forms allow you to easily and quickly gather information about your congregation from your members.

Then Welcome to the Family guides you in telling about your congregation in the clearest, most accurate way possible.

Teaches new members how to be evangelistic
One of the best sources for evangelism is new members. This material will help them to share with others the wonderful blessing they have found.

Introduces new members to church leaders
After three weeks your new members will know who the elders, deacons, and ministers are and the role they play in your congregation.
