As a certified interim and church turn around minister, this church is making a few mistakes.
A weekly bulletin, church ad ... really anything printed and distributed should ALWAYS be written in a language and format for a first time visitor.
If not you run the risk of turning off those who don't understand. It makes your church seem like an insider club, not open and welcome to all.
Save the insider language, aka Christian speak, for the sermon.
