Re: Try this!!!!!
Seriously, I think inviting people to church is often not the best idea - at least not at first. Time spent being a friend is a much better investment. If they grow to appreciate you, your lifestyle and friendship they will invite themselves or at least be more ready.

Totally agree with this Hoovie! I often think how I would react (if I hadn't grown up in church) to a perfect stranger inviting me to a church. Would I go? Probably not, especially in this day and age. However if someone who has shown themselves to be a friend to me were to invite me I would be much more likely to say yes. Just my thoughts.

Making a friend sometimes requires many hours of internet access!

I'd have to stop "working" - that's when I'm usually on AFF. Multitasking like that makes up for having to do droll and uninspiring work and fills the void spent while waiting for a colleague or customer to finish picking at whatever consumes their time, and thus much of my own.
How about if we spent that much time inviting people to post on AFF?
