Once all are seated, instruct everyone to introduce themselves and  
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      determine the best time and place for them to meet as a group over the 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      six-week GIC campaign. In the church-group room, have a red table set 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      up for those who prefer a Sunday group and a blue table for those who 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      prefer a midweek group, and have people sign up accordingly.
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      In both rooms, remember to proceed quickly because people will need 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      to leave for other obligations (picking up children from child care, etc.).
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
  2. Have a “Connection Card” in each bulletin. On the card is space for 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      people’s pertinent information (name, address, phone, email, etc.). 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      Provide options for them to check off the kind of group they may be 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      interested in and the best times for them to meet (have them rank in 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      order the top three days and times).
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      Instruct people during the service to fill out the card and put it either in 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      the offering plate or in a basket by the door as they exit. Have teams 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      ready to work after the service and that afternoon sorting the cards and 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
      beginning to contact people to connect them to groups.
