If you are in the GRETEER crew (10)

Greet and Distribute-the-programs-to all the attendees

[We need 4 Dental Students – 4 Medical Students – 2 SAHP]

At 11AM (or a minute before), this ‘specific’ role ends.

Leave the remaining of the programs in the baskets next to each entrance door and in
the central counter for self-service to those that arrive late.
Join everyone else in the Nave. Sit and be ready to be blessed.

South entrance (2)

North entrance (2)
Nave/Sanctuary (2)

You are a greeter-usher (flexible role), your main purpose is to make them feel
welcome and that it is an honor to have them join ‘us’.

Foyer (4)
Covering south & north interior doors
1. You will capture guests that ‘slipped’ from the greeter at the door
 It is your turn to greet them, give them a program, and direct them
inside of the Sanctuary.

2. If a student walks in with a backpack, instruct (remind) him/her to leave

the backpack (or books) in the mother’s room prior to entering in the
Sanctuary

3. At 11:00 am, a couple of you could stay along the last rows, next to each
entrance, watching for relatives that arrive late, and help them find a place
to seat (or instruct students with backpacks).

“This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of the Lord’s people but is also overflowing in many expressions of
thanks to God.” 2 Corinthians 9:12
Your participation is a public statement of your gratitude; it confirms to the relatives that the ultimate donation was not in vain.
This also brings closure to not only to the relatives but to each of you after months of dealing with death and life.
This is a moment to pause and reflect on the gift of life!
Thank you so much. This service of appreciation is meaningful – only – because of you all!

 If you are in the Usher crew (16)
[6 Medical Students – 6 Dental Students – 4 SAHP]
 Each usher will be in charge of a guest or guests (if they come as a “family
group.”)

 Ushers in the Foyer (14): Pin a printed “wine-color” ribbon to everyone,

of any age. This ribbon will help to identify a guest- relative/friend of the
donor, and will be easy to recognize as a relative when we need to give
them the ‘flower gift’ toward the end of the program.
 If the guest(s) is senior and/or disable, help them into the ‘nave’
and trust them to the “nave usher” – or feel free to walk with them
to their pew. Then, go back to the foyer for your next opportunity…
 If you see a large group of relatives, feel free to pair with the usher
in charge, pinning ribbons and guide them to the Nave
 If you take the guests through the interior doors and the other
nave-ushers are busy, take over; feel free to walk them to their pew.

 Usher in the “Nave”: guarding the aisles and target guests. You will walk
or direct guest(s) to comfortable seats – your role is shared with other
ushers

 At 11AM (or a minute before), this ‘specific’ role ends. Join everyone
else in the Nave. Sit and be ready to be blessed.

Note: If there are some remaining flowers[1] take some down the aisle to the
containers/vases next to the stage and sit down to enjoy the blessings.

“The one who offers thanksgiving as his sacrifice glorifies me; to one who orders his way rightly
I will show the salvation of God!” Psalm 50:23 ESV

[1]
These flowers are right after the interior doors into the nave/sanctuary. Students have been taking these flowers to
the containers to later be offered to the relatives as a token of appreciation.

 If you are the Flowers Managers/Overseers (8)
6 at the interior doors1, and 2 next to the stage [4MS, 2 DS, 2 SAHP)

Six are at the interior doors (three at each door).

 You will be standing on the Nave/Sanctuary side – on either side of the
respective door with a large container of flowers (Anatomy provides these
flowers).
 Give EACH incoming student two or three flowers and instruct her/him to
place them in the flower-containers located along the stage/platform.
 These flowers will be use in the “flower gift” distribution, later in the
program. It is a symbol of appreciation from us to them (the relatives,
those with wine-ribbon).
 Three will be assigned in each door to avoid jamming the door with
students, and process can move smoothly. Each of you could have a
handful of flowers and give a few to each student as they come in, while
giving instructions.
 At 11AM you and the rest of the supporting crew will take the remaining
of the flowers to the containers and sit down to enjoy the service.

 North interior doors (right side) = 3

 South interior doors (left side) = 3

Two are next to the stage/platform (2).

 You will be standing next to the stage/platform
 As a student arrives “undecided” to where to place the flowers, you can
lead them and make sure the vases are filling evenly (nothing is perfect
but presentable).
 If the vases are full, then flowers can be place lying on the stage next to the
pictures
 You will also help the relatives place the pictures on the center stage

 “FLOWER GIFT”
You are in the “Distribution of Flowers” crew.
Remember that the program is unannounced
[10+ from each school]
You do not have to sit in any specific area.
In fact, the more disperse the better it would look when the time come for this participation.
You can sign up to be part of this activity even if you sign-up for other parts.
 Right after the Response Prayer, you get up, no matter where are you
sitting.
 Go toward the flower containers, next to the front stage.
1. Take with you a bunch of flowers and a handful of little cloth-bags that
contains Wildflowers Seeds,
2. Distribute one set (a flower with a wildflower-seeds bag) to each
guest, of any age that is wearing the “wine-color” ribbon (that was
placed by the greeters-ushers).
3. If there are 10 in the family, you give one to each one, individually,
with a “thank you”.
 Do not get tired of saying Thank You.
 Go back for more flowers and wildflower-seeds if needed, until you see
that every guest had been acknowledge, and expressed our gratitude.
 You can go back to your seat with the leftover flowers & seeds in your
hand, or return then to the containers if you have too many in your hands
(you can also hand out extras to a relative as you go back to your sit).

Note: if a classmate did not sign out for this activity, but will like to do it, encourage her/him to
come and do it. There is no limit to show appreciation!
