065: Rescue Live - How to fill a conference room through personal invitations

In this episode, Eric shares a few updates what's happening in Proclaim - the Archbishop's initiative (keynote in a previous episode), Divine Renovation Event, and Rescue Live (May 4 2024)
Eric shares how the Rescue team took an unconventional approach to filling seats at the Rescue Live event. Missionary disciples all over the Archdiocese, and through parish teams extended personal invitations to people they were committed to accompanying before, during, and after the Rescue Live event.
Key steps that made this strategy successful:
1. Invite pastors to delegate a parish coordinator
2. Invite the coordinator and their parish inviters to a ""kick off event""
3. Get parishes to commit to ""reserving tables""
4. Accompany coordinators along the journey and offer accompaniment training.
Proclaim is a movement of the Archdiocese of Vancouver inspiring disciples to proclaim Jesus in their homes and communities.
