Members of the Community Heights Alliance Church want the community to “Ask me about Community Heights church.”
Before Thanksgiving, Community Heights Alliance Church began a sign campaign asking the community to ask them about the church. Community Heights had yard signs made for all the church members to put in their yards.
“This has been an amazing campaign for our church in multiple ways,” Community Heights Alliance Associate Pastor John Patterson said. “It has became a way many of our church members have got to know each other, who attend different services.”
The campaign was created by Community Heights members Paul Goodman and his wife, Marilyn, who presented an idea on how the church could connect and let people know it was a part of the Newton Community.
“The campaign has increased awareness of the number of members of Community Heights and has created encouragement as it gives our members a chance to identify other members of the congregation,” Patterson said.
Community Heights focuses on the connection within its church, but also among surrounding churches in Newton.
“We have seen more of a connection amongst those who have recognized the signs across town,” Patterson said. “In the end, it’s still about spreading the love of Jesus Christ across the community of Newton.”
Community Heights offers many programs and has started a few new campaigns, but recognizes the main endgoal of its ministry.
“The one thing more important than anyone attending Community Heights, is that people get in touch with the Lord and discover there is a God that loves them and has a longing to be in a relationship with us,” Patterson said. “We have many great churches here in our community, which we meet to help them grow as we never want to compete with them.”
Community Heights plans on creating more new innovative ways for people find a church home in the community.
“Come check us out, if your looking for a church home,” Patterson said.
