Cheryl Floyd is my hero for the day!
I've been sitting in my office listening to her talk on the phone for the past three hours! She's working her way down the phone numbers in our database, inviting people to church this weekend. And she's not just leaving messages. She's asking people about their lives and encouraging them. For someone like me who can't talk on the phone more than five minutes without beginning to multi-task this is simply amazing.
I remember when I first met Cheryl. She came to our office hoping to sell us a copy machine. And she did. Then she came to church and the rest is history! It's been great to see her grow into a woman who loves Jesus and lives to serve His church.
By the way, I wonder if people sit outside my office listening to me talk on the phone:)
"Hi would you like to check out our new Canon 5000?" Boom, the next thing you know she is serving Jesus and inviting people to church! I like this story:)
