Planning Tips for September C. E. Ministry Team

1. Checking In

This may be a busy time for your members. Allow time for them to talk about what is going on in their lives.

2. Devotional Thoughts and Prayer

3. Reviewing Agenda

           Give everyone an opportunity to add items to the agenda.

4. Report from the Session

           Give time to hear from the session.

6. New C. E. Year

Well, it has begun! All that hard work has paid off. Take just a few moments to talk about how the year has started. How do you feel about the promotion you did? Is everything running smoothly?

           Plan to spend a large part of your meeting setting goals for 2008.

           From that planning, develop your budget askings for 2008.
