Emcee Instructions

7:00 Ask someone to open in prayer

7:02 While people eat, try to identify a person or couple who would bring the food February 11 (it is a task with simple instructions in the food supply box and here).

7:27 Invite attendees who have announcements or prayer requests to make them at this time
