I gave out my first Easter invite card this afternoon in the Town Center, which was an incredible feeling. As I described our church's grand opening in just a month to this guy, I could see a few people at other tables in Starbucks turn and listen with an eager ear. I was thankful for the opportunity to break the ice on this one before I stand before our folks tomorrow morning and ask them do the same thing...
We're going with the theme of "Easter in Reston.com" which was Gary's suggestion to me. We're planning a full-on blitz of press releases, yard signs, and other fun stuff in the two weeks leading up to Easter.
I know you've mentioned signage a bunch, and just wanted to tell you about our experience last Sunday... we tried out a church in the area for the first time. It's a pretty big church and even has some billboard and tv ads out here. But we sure couldn't figure out which parking lot to park in or how to get to the sanctuary. Not such a good welcoming first impression. I'm so excited for y'alls move to the town center and know people won't have a problem finding you. (I had to throw a y'all in there since I'm a Nashvillian now!) Take care!
