“The Communication Card or Connection Card is just that – a card that enables you to have a dialogue of sorts with everyone who attends your church on a given Sunday. Measuring about a third of a page, the Communication Card is printed on heavy paper stock and inserted into the program. Don’t stick it in the back of the chairs or pews. Put it in the program, and put the program in the hand of each guest who comes through the door. This is the best way to ensure that no one is overlooked. Here’s a tip: Also pass out pens with your programs. Remove all stumbling blocks. Once everyone who has entered your church has a Communication Card-bearing program in his or her hand, the process of information gathering can begin.” – Nelson Searcy
