A Welcoming church?

Saw this tweet and picture the other day:

Well, this is a first. A notice on a church door that actually made me want to pay them a visit:

Made me wonder how many churches really feel this way.  I think this was the kind of person Jesus was as they were always hanging around him, but unfortunately not all our churches.  I think a lot of leaders of our modern evangelical churches feel this way, but not all the attenders,  I'm afraid this often leaves those who attend even the best of churches leaving sour.  I guess they say the worst advertisers for Christianity are Christians.  If we aren't the type of people or churches that would make the type of people in the above not feel welcome we should probably look in the mirror as we're not being like Jesus.
