Public Relations: Leader - Johnnie Neal - Purpose: To present information about special worship services pertaining to NBCF in a Christian manner. It is to inform the community and areas nearby of the worship and praise services held at the Church through the media of newspapers and flyers. It is to create a desire to attend worship service to those who may not be aware of our Church; to keep the community abreast of the blessings and growth taking place at the church. We welcome visitors to NBCFC through gift bags which include the Church's mission statement, a Biblical tract and other items. We take photographs of special services and random Sundays to keep as pictorial history of the Church's services. We provide Newspaper articles to local papers when needed. Prepare flyers and articles for any of the Ministries in the Church. It is our hope that by doing these things we are showing our love to all who enter our doors to worship and praise God.
