Invite comments on the following questions: During the weekends that we are distributing the Memorial invitation, what factors will determine whether you will also offer the DVD? What could you say to make the transition from the invitation to the DVD? Demonstrate how the DVD may be offered along with the invitation. The following is a sample presentation: “Each year people get together to remember important events in their lives, such as wedding anniversaries. Similarly, Jesus commanded us to gather together for an important event. What is this? Notice what the Bible says at Luke 22:19. [Show Luke 22:19.] So what is the reason we should gather together? [Allow for response.] Yes, so we will not forget the significance of Jesus’ death. When should we gather? What is done at this gathering? What impact can Jesus’ death have on my life? This DVD will explain.”
10 min: Local needs.
10 min: How Did We Do? Discussion. Invite publishers to comment on how they benefited by applying points from the article “Improving Our Skills in the Ministry—Making a Record of the Interest.” Ask the audience to relate good experiences.
