Name Tag Sunday - June 7

On Sunday, June 7, St. John’s will hold it’s first "Nametag Sunday." As you walk down the walkway to worship that morning the Evangelism Ministry Team asks that you stop at the table and write your name on the tags provided. Please wear the nametag at worship and during brunch.

Everyone get nervous when they have to address someone they don’t know. Everyone also gets embarrassed when they talk to a person they have known for a while but can’t remember their name. BUT… if the person is wearing a nametag, all nervousness and embarrassment can be avoided. Nametags have the power to "introduce" because the nametag serves as an icebreaker.

On Nametag Sunday, the Evangelism Ministry Team asks you to approach someone you usually do not greet with a friendly hello, say their name, and see how their face lights up. Remember a person’s name is the sweetest sound a person can hear and saying their name makes them feel welcome and appreciated. Stay and hold a conversation, learn about their interests, and hear their life story.
