CONG-525 Newcomer Integration

This course examines the critical issues that determine whether newcomers to a church become active, regular participants, or stop coming. Focus will be on the key elements and events in this process of inclusion, beginning with the first visit and ending one year after membership. Students will be introduced to the most current research and strategic thinking in the field, and will develop a workable "system" that will significantly increase their church's retention of visitors.
