• And 1 at Doncaster (40 minute bus ride away).

3. Method of splitting groups

4. What to bring and wear?

• The weather forecast is predicting a sunny day with temperatures above 35 ^oC on Sabbath. Please carry everything you need to have a safe and comfortable time serving our Lord. Suggestions include:
  • Comfortable and appropriate walking attire
  • Shades
  • Hat
  • Sunscreen
  • Water bottle
  • Anything else you deem necessary to maintain your health
• Regarding our dress, despite the weather conditions, let us not forget that we are representing Christ. Our inner character – and our outward expression of it – must give the people we will interact with a clearer understanding of God.

5. Time & Duration

• The outreach program starts at 2 pm, so let’s try and ensure that we are all at the starting location on time, so that no one misses any critical information.
• The outreach is around 1.5 hour and please follow your group leader’s instruction.

6. Summary of the survey

• Each pair has about 20 paper surveys and a link to the digital survey. Either can be used to log your experience with people (the digital survey is preferred). After a positive conversation with someone, it is paramount that you capture their contact details and what they are interested in, on the survey.

7. Any other instructions

• Please continue to pray that the program runs smoothly, safely and that souls are won to God
