HOW TO GET STARTED - DO THIS IN MEMORY


GATHER ALL PARENTS AND GUARDIANS FOR INITIAL MEETING

This meeting should be held as early as possible in September.
Consider holding this meeting in a place other than the school if at all possible. There is a CD Rom in the Coordinator’s Manual containing a Power Point Presentation for use at this meeting.


AT THIS MEETING

Introduce the programme.
Give parents/guardians the dates on which the programme will take place.
Decide which weekend Mass will be most suitable for the programme.
Give the Information Booklet to parents/guardians. This Information Booklet contains the promises that the children and parents/guardians will make on the first Sunday of the programme.
Look for volunteer parents/guardians to be members of a Coordinating Group.
To facilitate communication with parents/guardians during the year, ask those present to give details of names and telephone numbers. It will also be necessary to get similar information from those parents/guardians who are not present.

GATHER THE COORDINATING GROUP

The Coordinating Group may also contain members of the Parish Liturgy Group/sacristan/Parish Pastoral Council/choir director(s).


The work of this group is to:
meet once a month to plan for the next Sunday of the programme. The agenda for this meeting each month can be taken from the page in the Coordinator's Manual, entitled 'Things to Remember'.
