Coach the preparation of Annual Reports. Each Lay Speaker is expected to seek and find opportunities to serve. We should offer ideas and examples. Community needs may not seem to fit with our desires. They are opportunities just the same.
Experimentation can be fun.
Try something new. Opportunities to serve grow from opportunities that are willingly undertaken. Listen for what God is callilng us to do. Meet regularly with clergy partners and encourage all lay speakers to do so. Stay tuned to developments in other Conferences.
