Planning Group Pre Programme Meeting:
Key Tasks

There are two primary tasks in this pre programme meeting:

• Ensure that all the necessary planning details are complete for the actual running of the Giving in Grace programme. Work carefully though each of the major elements and ensure that all the detail is covered. A great deal has gone into the preparation of this programme: do not let it be spoilt because no one has told the intercessor for the day that there are special Giving in Grace prayers, or there is no publicity for the house groups in the notices.
• Ensure that there is careful consideration of the follow up strategy so that proper appreciation is given, non respondents are followed up and requests for information are acted upon efficiently and with a personal touch.

By the end of this meeting the Planning Group should be confident that all the necessary details surrounding the actual running of the Giving in Grace programme are complete, or at least well in hand. The programme checklist will be of assistance in tying down the details. It is also essential to double check that all arrangements have been made for effective and prompt follow up of the programme.
