Back to Church Sunday is a call for Christians to come back to experiencing the gift of belonging to and serving in a church family. It’s a welcome for all people to hear the good news of God’s love for us in Jesus Christ and to experience that love through his church.
We want to encourage everyone to consider the great gift God has given us in one another. Being part of a local church is much more than attending a weekly event. It’s part of God’s plan for us to grow, to love others and be loved, and serve as a witness to the world.
This year's Back to Church Sunday is especially important in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused church attendance to fall all across the country. Some individuals and families fell out of the church-going habit; many others have moved to Denison during this time period and were not able to connect with a church family. Now Denison churches are prepared to safely gather once again.
We encourage you to attend church with us on Sunday the 19th, as well as the community gathering in the afternoon. This is also a great time to invite friends, neighbors, and co-workers to join you and begin or restore the life-giving habit of being part of a church.
