Hey ,

I wanted to take a minute and just tell you that you did it! You made it through the "super bowl" Easter Sunday- you put your best foot forward, you poured everything out, and I want to say, church leader, be encouraged you did a great job! Take a deep breath, and allow a moment to rest.

Okay, but let's be real—it's been a few days since Easter Sunday, and things are starting to settle down. But here's the thing: now is not the time to slow down. In fact, quite the opposite—it's time to kick things into high gear.

You see, research shows that the next 30 days are absolutely crucial when it comes to keeping those new faces we saw on Easter Sunday engaged and connected to our church. I'm talking make-or-break crucial. And trust me, we don't want to break.

So, why are these next 30 days so important? Well, think about it like this: right now, those Easter guests are still riding high on the energy and excitement of Easter Sunday. They're curious, they're interested, and they're looking for a place to call home. But if we don't act fast, that curiosity can quickly turn into apathy, and before you know it, they're gone.

But fear not—there's a plan. And it's a pretty simple one. I've put together a blog post that lays out exactly what we need to do to keep those Easter guests engaged and connected to our church in the next 30 days. Spoiler alert: it involves keeping things simple, getting personal, and keeping the momentum going.

So, I encourage you to check out the blog post—it's a quick read, I promise. And more importantly, it's packed full of practical tips and strategies that we can start implementing right away.

Here's to the next 30 days and all the amazing connections we're going to make along the way. Let's do this!

Take care,
