Hi ,
My name is Peter (the guy who generally teaches at My Church). I don't know if we got to meet on Sunday, but I saw that you attended First Church for the first time, so I just wanted to say hello.
I am almost always at the More Info table after worship services with some of the other pastors. It would be great if you could stop by this next Sunday and say hello (nothing awkward - but it's always nice to put a face with a name).
I will be praying for you this week. Please let me know if there is anything we can do for you and if you want to give us a bit more information .
Blessings,

Hi ,
Wow, has it been a month already since you visited My Church the first time? We really appreciate you taking the time to check us out.
We hope that you found My Church to be a welcoming, relevant and fun place to get plugged in and meet other people. We also hope you found My Church to be a place where you can encounter God and have a meaningful worship experience.
There are a lot of cool things going on right now at My Church. Check out our website to see the very latest including our monthly Small Group Connection. These are designed to be a fun place and time to learn more about groups and connect with 10 or 12 other people with whom to learn and do life together.
Please let us know if there is any way we can be praying for you or if there is anything we can do for you. Also, if you have any questions about My Church or how you can get plugged in, feel free to let us know.
Have a wonderful week, we look forward to seeing you again soon at My Church!
Blessings,

, if you haven't found a church yet, I would like to invite you to join us this Sunday. Thanks, Pastor Pete.
These texts and emails are just additional touch points besides the ones scheduled through personal conacts.
30 days after the last text we suggest putting them into a 1st Time Guests > 4 months group. Then remove them from the 1st Time Guests group. This keeps the primary group always fresh with your most recent guests who've come once but not returned.
