1.
Perfect Marriage
Ministries, Inc. (PMM) will do all
it can to promote a Perfect Marriage Seminar. 2.
PMM will be responsible, at it's own expense, for
constructing & delivering the following: 3.
Churches do not have
an obligation of providing anything more than space for the seminar. PMM is careful not to impose any
expense upon the hosting church.
If advertising expenses are imposed, PMM will agree to reimburse
the hosting church out of the monies generated from the seminar (subject
to prior approval from PMM). 4.
PMM relies upon
ongoing input, at least once a week, from the Pastor, for addressing the
needs of the congregation and its' response to attending the
seminar. 5.
The success of any
seminar rests upon many factors.
However, there is no substitute for Pastoral commitment,
perseverance, and enthusiasm. 6.
If
you are hosting a PMM seminar, it is strongly advised that you invite
nearby 7.
Participating churches
are those who will permit PMM to deliver flyers
and 8.
Ideally, several
Pastors from churches with a 10 mile radius will get together at least
once, for about ½ hour, to discuss and agree upon the date, schedule, and
marketing plan for the seminar.
I believe that it is important for the Pastor of the " hosting
church" to generate interest and enthusiasm, and to make the ultimate
decision regarding the date and schedule of the seminar. 9. The seminar should be promoted approximately 6 weeks prior to the seminar. Interest is often generated when Pastors speak with their congregations and then get a hand count regarding the parishioner's interest for this high grade, but low costing seminar that is designed for all married couples. 10.
Forming a small
seminar committee within the church can generate much interest and lessen
the burden upon the Pastor.
This committee can also be responsible for selling tickets and
collecting monies. 11.
It
is recommended that the PMM seminar be included in the church bulletin on
a weekly basis and the Pastor to verbally remind its' congregation of the
upcoming seminar and the importance of attending it. 12.
It
is recommended that PMM' promotional materials be posted throughout the
church and on the churches outside billboard. PMM's flyers should be in a good
location. Parishioners should
be encouraged to take one home. 13.
It
should be stressed that this seminar is for everyone to attend, especially
those
14.
It
should also be strongly & repeatedly emphasized that attendance at
this seminar is not an admission of having a marital problem. As a Pastor, you can inform your
congregation that you and your wife will be attending and are excited
about PMM, whose ministry is in showing couples how to attain God's
promise for " The Perfect Marriage." 15.
Spouses whose husbands
or wives cannot or will not attend should encouraged to attend because the
information from the seminar can be shared that spouse. This seminar may be the answer to
someone's prayers. Moreover,
it should be conveyed that one of Satan's most common tactics for
thwarting God's will is to keep spouse's too busy. The importance of prioritizing and
making the time for this powerful seminar is highly recommended! Their children will indirectly
benefit from this seminar. The importance of having child care cannot be
over-emphasized. It will
increase turn-out tremendously. 16.
Your local newspaper
can be contacted to see if they would be interested in
doing 17.
Please keep PMM in
prayer, that God's perfect will would be served, in terms
of The success of our ministry begins with your open door. Thank you for playing a part in doing God's will for reaching the marriages of your church! May God bless you! Joseph Racite,
