How to Host Southern Fire in Your Town
A number of people have expressed their wish to become involved in Southern Fire in their area! Here's what's involved, and what you can do to make this happen.
The Dunedin-based Southern Fire management team will liaise with local church leaders and pastors to arrange guest speakers, along with electives and topics to be included in the suggested programme of events.
What the traveling team will bring with them:
While it is anticipated that the marquee will be used in larger towns, there may be alternative venues in smaller towns.
- A core staff of people, free of charge
- The marquee, which seats 300 - 1200
- Equipment for the tent, including chairs, and most lighting and other equipment
- A suggested programme of events, covering the time in your particular town
