Groups Coming? Dave Knight has valuable insights for others who anticipate working with a group coming to help with a project such as VBS or building improvements. - Keep in constant contact with the group so that everyone is clear on what will be done and what is expected.
- Know what materials and resources will be provided by the group and by your church.
- Finalize schedules and any other activities the group might want to do.
- Inform the group about weather conditions, the need for drinking more water, and bringing warm clothing.
- Be prepared for follow-up.
- Be prepared to see God do great and wondrous things.
Dave saved the best advice for last: "The need for thorough communication cannot be minimized." |
