I have now received confirmation that the overseas mission speaker I booked some time ago will be able to speak on the date requested. What do I need to do now?
Once the provisional booking is confirmed, you should contact the speaker to confirm arrangements. This should be done at least two weeks before the date they are due to come to your service or meeting. When you speak to them, you should: (1) Confirm the date, time and place of the service or meeting. (2) Ensure the speaker knows how to get to the place where the meeting is taking place. Provide clear directions, if needed. (3) Outline the order of service or programme and make it clear exactly how and when they will be involved, including the length of time you expect them to speak for. If, for example, they are due to speak at a Sunday morning service, and there’s a children’s address, make it clear whether or not you expect them to look after this too. Also, will there be an opportunity for questions and answers? (4) Explain what facilities or equipment you can provide, or normally use, and find out what the speaker needs – eg data projector, laptop, screen, sound system, etc. Ensur
