Bring your girlfriends, your mom, your sisters, your neighbors, your co-workers and all of the special women in your life and come listen to other women share their heart-warming personal stories!
Coffee/lemonade are complimentary.
Times are from 7pm - 9pm. eXpresso is an evening for women of all ages to come and hear a panel of four to five women share their personal life stories of how God brought them to where they are today. It is a comfortable family room setting, where gals share a conversation as if they we sitting on their couch at home with their closest friends. You get to "look in" as an audience and "listen in" as their personal stories are shared. If you have never been to an eXpresso, it is a night filled with amazing God stories, emotion and once you come, you’ll be sure to mark every eXpresso date on your calendar! Looking so forward to seeing you at eXpresso!
****Sorry there is no Child Care available the nights of eXpresso. Tanya does have a nanny/childcare sheet Christine made up, please email me if you would like a copy. Thank you!
Good morning ladies~ I wanted to take a moment to thank you for signing up to help pass out eXpresso info cards & candy on the patio tomorrow morning.
My understanding is there won't be a Women's Table this weekend, so we will meet up inside next to the Info Booth where the leather chairs are. That's where I'll keep the supplies and baskets. If for some reason I'm not there, please just help yourselves and you can get started.
You'll find grocery bags full of the 'Passion' cards with candy glued to them along with (3) bright pink baskets. My thought is to load the pink baskets and use them for passing out. I chose bright pink, to draw attention to and spark interest in what we're doing! We will be passing these out on the front Patio between the front doors and the grass area.
Please arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled time then come back out after service for another 15 minutes or so.
Listed below are your time slots. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me either by email or phone at 602-999-9990.
Thank you so very much for coming early and helping make sure tonight was set up for eXpresso!! Your servant’s heart is so appreciated!!!
eXpresso is such a beautiful network for women of all ages. This is a fun evening out, hearing testimonies from amazing women, and coming along side wonderful gals to fellowship about the topic. Together we will hear how God helped them, grew them and walked side by side with them through their struggles.
As a Table Hostess please- **As a table hostess, we will be asking you to remove your name card from the plastic holder inside the coffee cup on the table when you have a full table of gals. This will help the greeters know the table is FULL. Please place your name tag on the table so gals will know who is the table hostess.
As the table hostesses arrive early, they will need to come into the student center and find their table. Please look for your name card on a plastic holder that will be sticking out of the coffee cup in the center of the table.
1. Greet and introduce yourself to the ladies at your table 2. Make sure they have a name tag, and if not help them to a kiosk 3. Be available to answer questions about the topic of the night. 4. Start off the table questions, help facilitate the conversation and move to the next question. 5. Be prepared to stay a bit after and allow the ladies to enjoy fellowshipping in conversation 6. There may be gals who are in need of prayer, if you are comfortable, please come along side them and pray or refer them to one of the eXpresso team members. 7. If you have any gals that are interested in being on the panel, please give them Tanya Kirkpatrick’s business card OR direct them to the church website to fill out a “coffee talk” form. 8. At 9pm please pick up centerpieces, any trash off the table, pens and tablecloth and place in labeled bins in back of the student center.
Thank you again for giving your time and your heart to serve as a Table Hostess!
First and foremost THANK YOU ANDRA GOOD!! She graciously has given our eXpresso page an "face lift" and gifted her time and talents, so THANK YOU ANDRA!!
Secondly could each of the coordinators please send me a head shot? I want gals to be able to put a face with a name so I will have your picture next to your info on the blog.
Thirdly are you ok since the blog is no longer via invite only (meaning anyone can view) for us to put your phone number as well as your email or just your email?
and Last but not least I AM SO LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING ALL OF YOU THIS THURSDAY, Feb 28th in Room A105 at 6:30 for our team meeting. Grab some girlfriends and bring them with you, we are looking to help fill several opportunities to serve!
