Concerning Sunday Evening Services, I think....
We should keep utilizing that time for "Family First" events on occasion
We should use that time to open more small groups, both on the church campus and in homes and places around town.
We should start a new church worship service during that time to focus on reaching the unreached.
We should go back to holding Sunday Evening services exactly like we did before the pandemic.

I could see myself attending almost every Sunday evening each month.
I could see myself attending about two Sunday evenings each month.
