What is inside

One workbook your team can write in

Fifteen pages. Short on theory, long on what to do next, with lines to write on.

Set up

Name your team, your one next step and your starting point

About 45 minutes, once.

Four encounters

One page each, with a checklist and a script

Seen, Known, Connected and Rooted, each with one job and one clear next step.

Every week

A rhythm, a guest list and a Saturday snapshot

Five minutes to see what happened and choose next Sunday’s one invitation.

Keep it pastoral

What we remember and what we never do

A plain promise to your guests that your whole team reads together.

The idea

A great first visit is not the goal

Three meaningful encounters that make a fourth one natural is the goal. Each has one job and one clear next step, so a guest never faces a menu.

1. SeenDay 0Welcome the guest and point to one invitation.
2. KnownDays 1 to 3A personal message that quotes what the guest shared.
3. ConnectedDays 7 to 21A person invites the guest to coffee, a group or a seat beside someone.
4. RootedDays 21 to 42One next step, named and tracked on your own list.

Our promise to your guests

Guests choose to be known

“We count anonymous visits to this page. We keep a name or contact only if you choose to share one, and we send no automatic emails.”

The workbook builds this into how your team works. Nobody is pressured or marked. A person, not an automated reply, handles anything urgent.
Questions

Before you download

Is it really free?

Yes. The workbook, the team deck and the leader notes are free. You do not need to sign up or give an email address.

Do we need Multiply to use it?

No. The workbook is a method for your own people, your own list and your own sermon. Multiply’s guest experience is optional and works with it.

Who is it for?

The people who greet, usher, run connection cards, send the follow-up text and sit beside someone on Sunday. It is also for the pastor or staff member who leads that team.

How much time does it take?

About 45 minutes to set up, then 30 to 45 minutes a week for the whole team together. If it takes more, do less. One invitation at a time is the rule.

Does it promise that guests will come back?

No. We say “we expect,” and your own guest list shows who actually came back. The workbook helps you write down your starting point so you can compare your own numbers before and after.
