4. FCCV WEAR YOUR NAME TAG IN
CHURCH...ALL MONTH!
Have you ever wondered who is sitting down there at the end of the pew? Are you shy about saying hello, because you aren't sure of their name? Do you KNOW you have seen them before, but can't remember if they are "new" or have been here for years?
With your help, we hope to change all that in February. If you have a name tag on the board in the Narthex (or in your jewelry box or change drawer at home)...now is your chance. Take your tag from the board or bring it from home and wear it on Sundays. If you have lost your name tag or if you never had one, ask for a new one (someone will be taking names). Visitor name tags will also be available. PLEASE PARTICIPATE BY WEARING YOUR NAME TAG!!! You'll be glad you did.
