******** Stray Notes for Planning... To be deleted later *********

 

• This meeting has been crowded in the past -- let's limit to 50 people so they can bring laptops or whatever.  And then webcast it for others... perhaps other locations such as... Northside New Era, Crossroads Bible College, TheROCC, and other strategic points around I-465.
• Maybe do MULTI-SITES... to help facilitate Neighborhood Teams... perhaps with help from Granger or Chicago churches as control-centers or HowTo resources.  Sites: Urban cafe, Lakeview west, Central Carmel, CBC Eastside, JonathanByrd Southside.
  • Tech Considerations... IndyChristianGeeks help?   Multiple projectors & screens.  Internet broadband... real broad... preferably 2 projectors/screens at each location, to accommodate local & citywide screens.
• Get announcements out way early.  And encourage Indy Timeline usage, as churches plan their 2009 calendar.
• We'll have a Resources table at each location, and even invite people to BRING flyers, brochures, etc.
• Remember... Communications need to be 'quick to LISTEN' and slow to speak.  So let's model that.  Letting people bring their 2009-related materials could be one way of 'listening'.  (What if we do something like Paul Backer did... provide a fellowship WALL... say Jan, Feb, Mar, etc... sections... bring/post your event flyers???
• Obtain announcements in advance... including video announcements.
• Dress Rehearsal & Prayer... 12/11 ???
• Objectives:   Hopeful Outcomes we'll evaluate at the end...
  • Pre-Meeting... Was the 'homework' preparation you did, helpful?
  • Good overview of major collaborative activities on the 2009 Indy Timeline?
  • Did you make valuable connections today?
  • Do you know how to stay abreast of 2009 Timeline activities?
  • Do you know how YOU can add activities to the Indy Timeline?
  •  
  • Was valuable information added to your local team's wiki-page?
  • How comfortable do you feel now, re looking around IndyChristian.NET (map)?
  • Modesty aside (please)... If you had missed this luncheon, would it have impaired the Great Commission in your community in 2009? (1-5 stars... 1=No, 5=YES)
  •  Do you feel like a needed member of your local team now?
  •  Do you know what to do next, to help?
