Dear Pastor,

For most people, the process of growing in Jesus Christ starts when they come to church for the very first time.

Can you think back to when you entered a church for the first time? It can be an intimidating situation — not knowing where to park, where to go, who you will meet, how you will be welcomed, essentially what to expect from start to finish.

The challenge all of us face as church leaders: You have people attending each week for the first time but because of the scenario I described above, it’s difficult to get them to return to church for a second time. And if WE DON’T GET THEM TO COME BACK, they are never going to become fully developing followers of Jesus.

It’s such a challenge that the average church in America only keeps one out of every 20 people. That averages to about only 10 first-time guests per year.

Now imagine that same church making a few small changes and now improving that number to keep 1 out of every 10!

How many more lives could be transformed?

The great news is there IS a proven process to welcome first-time guests, get them to return again and again, and effectively move them to membership and an ongoing relationship with Christ.

It’s called Assimilation. I first developed this 10 years ago at The Journey Church and since then have implemented and improved these strategies with over 3,000 churches across all sizes and denominations. The turnarounds I’ve seen have been dramatic. Even with churches that are 100 to 150 years old and stagnant for a long time.

The fact is that nothing impacts the growth of your church FASTER than Assimilation­ — the process of welcoming first-time guests, keeping them coming back and eventually moving them to membership.

Wherever you are, and whatever stage of life you're in as a church, improving your Assimilation rate is going to have a dramatic impact on your church!

Now it wasn’t easy figuring this out in the very beginning — in fact, the struggle was very real! But I had to face this crisis of disbelief before the answers would come. Maybe you have a similar story . . .

The time God challenged me –
“Nelson, what are you doing with the first-time gifts
I’m sending you each Sunday?”

You may not know the early story of The Journey Church.

We began in a comedy club on the upper west side of Manhattan. After doing a series of monthly services, we launched on Easter Sunday and had 110 people show up.

I was ecstatic! I thought this was a great number to start with.

It was the next Sunday I learned my first principle of church growth as a new church planter in New York City: Everybody who comes on Easter Sunday does not come back the Sunday after!

A Crisis of Disbelief

We had 55 people come back, which I thought wasn’t bad – about half. But then I had an unpleasant surprise. Unfortunately, through my dynamic leadership and charismatic preaching, I grew the church down to 35 over the next three months!

I began having a crisis of disbelief. I began to have this conversation with God and asked him, “Why is this happening?” I began to sort of get mad at God and tell him all the things that I’d done for him – what I’d given up to start this church in New York City.

He interrupted my pity party and started to remind me of all the things he’d done for me, and how he’d provided for me all these years I’d been a Christian. Finally, I relented and asked for guidance — and God began to teach me some new things about being a pastor.

One of the first things I felt like God asked me is this question: “Nelson, what are you doing with the first-time gifts that I'm sending you each Sunday?”

Think about that language for a moment.

Every week, God entrusts each of us with first-time gifts. These are first-time people who choose to come to our church. I answered back to God, “Well, God, I'm counting them and that's pretty much it. I’m hoping they come back.”

Sound familiar?

An Effective System is Born

At this point I DID NOT have an intentional process to manage and follow up with even the few first-time guests we were seeing. But this is where it began, and with God’s guidance over time I developed the Assimilation System that I’m sharing with you today — a system that allows you to move someone from first-time guest to second-time guest to regular attender – all the way to fully-engaged member.

This made all the difference for The Journey — within a couple of years, we were a church of 200. And then eventually as you may know — The Journey became one of the fastest growing churches in America.

You know how we launched with 110 people? I remember, many years later, when we had 110 first-time guests!

These results are not unusual for us or for the more than 3,000 churches who have implemented the Assimilation System and seen dramatic results.

It’s really all about people. It’s about those gifts that God is entrusting to you. So I’ll ask you the same question he asked me all those years ago:

What are YOU doing with the first-time gifts that God is sending you each Sunday?”

Here's what other pastors are saying about Nelson Searcy's powerful, proven Assimilation Seminar!

Ultimately, this seminar about life transformation.

When I first made a decision to go to church, I was an adult. It was all very unfamiliar to me but I vividly remember that experience. For me, it started what has now been a lifetime transformation process. It’s what led me to Christ, what led me to baptism, what led me to grow, what led me to understand God’s word and radically transformed my life.

I’m sure as you think about your story, that’s true for you as well. Your life has been transformed because some church cared for you and assimilated you. They helped you go from stranger to guest to family member to fully engaged follower.

Now it’s your turn as a pastor commissioned to reach more people for Christ. How will you make this the year that you keep and assimilate more first-time guests?

Praying you will join me, the pastors you met above and over 3,000 other churches in radically growing your church through the power of Assimilation!
