 Hosting a Tentmaking Business as Mission Seminar

 

 We would love to hold a seminar at your location!

  Here is how you can help:

- You should find a suitable FREE location that can easily accommodate up to 30 people.

- You agree to be the local contact leading up to the event. You should have an email address and telephone number.

- You agree to advertise the seminar locally and to other churches in the region. 
If the church or agency has their own webpage, you might suggest they advertise on their site. A bulletin insert is ideal.

- You need to find one or two volunteer assistants for the event. They will help with serving snacks, helping people with directions, finding suitable lodging for those who require an overnight stay. Arrange for a coffeemaker, water kettle for tea, drinking water and a table for snacks. 

- You will arrive early on the day of the seminar to help setup and also ensure the facilities are left in good shape at the end of the day.

- We will need a table or two for our display & books and a projector screen.

- If GO staff require an overnight stay, any help in finding billets or reasonable hotel accommodation would be appreciated.

- Since we offer these seminars for free, we would appreciate the host taking a free will offering at the end of the seminar and doing this on our behalf. Any suggestions you may have on how we can make this event revenue neutral ie. to cover the expenses of presenter travel and handbook printing cost would be appreciated.

- If you can find a local church that would like to have a guest speaker for the Sunday after the seminar, we would love the opportunity to share the tentmaking message with them.

We will help you with:

- Mini-posters, bulletin inserts and powerpoint announcements for the event.

- Seminar advertising on the internet and on our website.

- Setting up on the day of the event and with cleanup afterwards.

- Recognition of your organization/church on our website
