You Matter

Dear BFWC Family,

To everyone who volunteers at Bethel Family Worship Center...YOU ARE AMAZING!!!  God is using YOU to reach people...and lives ARE being changed because of the time and effort you put in each and ever week.

Last night was simply off the charts! 1600 people walked on to our campus for a night of fellowship at the FALL HARVEST FEST!  We have never seen so many cars parked on our campus before!  They were lined up and down the streets...It was unreal!

YOU MADE IT HAPPEN!
  • You donated candy!
  • You showed up to serve!
  • You gave away smiles, hugs & handshakes!
  • You kept a good attitude when the crowd was overwhelming!
  • You served people!
  • You invited people!
  • You represented JESUS!
  • You stayed late to clean up!
  • You connected with one another!
EVERYTHING you do matters!
  • To our greeters - YOU matter!
  • To our ushers - YOU matter!
  • To our parking lot team - YOU matter!
  • To our Children's Ministries team - YOU matter!
  • To our media team - YOU matter!
  • To our gate keepers - YOU matter!
  • To our hospitality team - YOU matter!
  • To our 3one7 Students - YOU matter!
To every volunteer in ANY area of our church - YOU matter!

We're sure there might be days that you are tempted to think, "Does it really matter whether I show up today or not?"  The answer is an astounding YES!  Everything you do matters...and it IS making a difference - both NOW and for eternity!

BFWC...we understand that a church is NOT effective when the pastor ministers to the people - but rather when the BODY ministers to the body!  WE need one another!

And so week after week people show up, work with children, direct traffic, clean the place where we meet...all so we can work together to impact this community...and IT's WORKING!

It is an honor and privilege to serve with you!  We can't wait to see you on Sunday! 

Love,

Russell & Beverly Hylton
