Volunteers Needed

From Bruce Finn and Donna Hoult:

We need your help especially in the area of Registration help! Notice you get to attend some of the training sessions for free if you volunteer. We are co-hosting the North American Church Planting Seminar here in the Philly area July 24-28. We lobbied hard to get Global Church Advancement (GCA) to bring the Seminar here, and we’ve been working with them to prepare an outstanding, catalytic church planting event. We’re praying that this will serve to advance the transformational church planting movement that God has begun in the greater Philly area.

In order to provide the Seminar at the prices they do, GCA depends upon volunteers to join with them in putting on the event. Most of the roles they must fill can be carried out by anyone who is warm, flexible, diligent and available … no special skills required. Here is a brief summary of the roles/responsibilities that we’d like for you to consider filling, either yourself, or by recruiting someone you know who would delight in serving with us in this strategic church planting event. We need several people in each role:

Training Room Host/Hostess – help the trainer set up, record session, obtain evaluation forms, get GCA staff involved to solve any problems that arise
- need minimum ½ day commitments (morning, afternoon or evening slots)
- need coverage all 5 days – MO-FR, but you can commit to as little as ½ day
- you get to participate free in the training taking place in the room you host

- attend any two training sessions free

Set-up / Break-down – help GCA staff set up chairs, tables, A/V equipment, cables, etc. on Sunday night, and reverse this on Friday afternoon
