When I was a kid, on the days of the family reunion. I would sit in the front porch swing, watching car after car come down the drive. There I was on the porch swing waving at them all. My brother and I would bring friends to the reunion, cousins, aunts, and uncles did the same. Those friends were always welcome with a warm greeting and treat has if they were a part of the family.
As Christians we are a family, every Sunday is like our family reunion. Everyone should feel welcomed and greeted warmly. It don't matter if they are a long time member or a stranger off the street, it don't matter color of skin, or gender, they are there of a reason God led them there for a reason. DO NOT turn them away. For you may be standing in the way of the turning their lives around. Accept as family, treat them as family, and grow with them as family
