As we approach another GMTD weekend, here is a little reminder of what you
are responsible to do if you are sponsoring a candidate. First of all,
please prayerfully consider each person you decide to sponsor. This person
should be a professing believer, and one who desires to grow spiritually and
become a leader in the Christian community.
When the
Pre-weekend couple calls you to tell you your candidate has been called for
the upcoming weekend, please contact your candidate and get back to the
pre-weekend couple within the prescribed time. They have many phone calls
to make, and if they don’t hear from you within a few days, they are forced
to move on to the next candidate.
Once your
candidate has been confirmed, it is your responsibility to get letters from
those close to your candidate and get them to the camp by Saturday night of
the weekend. You should take your candidate to send-off (on time). You
should check on the candidate’s family during the weekend, and provide
transportation back home after closing for your candidate. After the
weekend, you should check on your candidate, and take him/her to the next
Secuela.
Most importantly,
you should pray for your candidate and his/her family before, during, and
after the weekend. If you make sure you attend to all of your
responsibilities as a sponsor, it will make the weekend a much more
pleasant experience for everyone involved. |
