Sunday morning Host Script
For February 19, 2017
Good MORNING Everybody!Welcome to BMZ! My name is Stan – I’mthe pastor around here, and I’m so glad you’ve joined us as we CONTINUE our SERIES called: “FIGHT CLUB!”
In just a few minutes, I will be back up here to talk about GROUND RULES, FOOTBALL, TEXTING MY DAUGHTERS, DECORATIVE PILLOWS and TEXAS!! Glad you are here!
But first, I’d like to draw your attention to the program you should have received when you came in today. Inside that program is a “CONNECTION CARD” that looks just like this [hold mine up].
If you haven’t done so already, will you use the pen you received and begin filling out this card? By the way, that’s EVERYBODY … EVERY WEEK!
TODAY, we are going to ask you to FILL in ALL of the BLANKS on your CONNECTION CARD. At the BEGINNING of the YEAR, we are trying to UPDATE EVERYONE’S INFORMATION … PLEASE!
BUT, If this is your FIRST TIME with us, I’d like to ask you to share as much information as you feel comfortable sharing so we can get to know you better… and be sure to mark the bubble on the right side that says “First” or “Second Time Guest”… AND, First time guests, we have a gift for you (FREE BOOK … “UNSHAKABLE” … out by doors)written by a friend of Pastor Stan’s!
Now one of the primary reasons we ask you to complete the front of this CONNECTION Card each week is because we believe God has a next step for you to take today, and by filling out the front of this card, you’re letting God know you’re PREPARED to take some NEXT STEPS in your faith journey (on the back of your Connection Card) AS WORSHIP PROGRESSES.
A NEXT STEP YOU MIGHT WANT TO TAKE TODAY IS: COMMIT to MEMORIZING EPHESIANS 5:25… OR, SIGN UP FOR A GROWTH GROUP … LAST CHANCE (See Catalog)!!
Pastor Stan will share more about our next steps with you during today’s message so hang onto your “CONNECTION” Card and we’ll COLLECT them at the VERY END of our worship time together.
Inside your program you’ll also find an OFFERING ENVELOPE - if you came prepared to give today, you’ll want to begin to fill that out and - again - we’ll WORSHIP through GIVING AT THE END OF WORSHIP … so, whatever you need to do to get prepared for that...
Quick Reminder: BMZ KidzKare for those kids 4 and younger … trained staff!! Also, we have BMZ KIDZ for students: Age 5 through Grade 5! We’d love to get your kids REGISTERED right NOW so they don’t miss a thing! If they don’t go now, please grab one of our activity bags at the back of the worship area if you need something to help occupy your children. ALSO, if your child gets FUSSY or NOISY during worship, we encourage you to STEP OUT UNTIL they’re READY to COME BACK IN.
We’re going to continue worshiping together as I lead us in prayer – LET’S PRAY … [PRAYER]
OK, take your program, Offering envelope and CONNECTION card, set them aside, and let’s stand … (quickly tell your neighbor … IF YOU’VE EVER BEEN IN A FIGHT!!)
