From Elder & Sister Jones
Keep your shares 3-5 min. In noon meetings give yourself the same amount of time the participants have ( which is usually shorter than the 3-5 Minutes).
Time yourselves AND the missionaries! You're in control of the sharing. Have the courage to stop a share if inappropriate.
Don't share twice.
Listen to the spirit.
Do a short training for new participants, before or after the meeting.
Make sure the door is closed before sharing time.
The facilitator begins with his/ her share and then reads the dialog script.
President Nelson counsels members to identify as children of God or of the covenant. We may wish to follow this pattern.
Bear testimony of the Savior and close in His name. Your share sets the spiritual tone for the meeting.
Read from the WHITE script.
We must avoid preventing any of the participants from introducing themselves how they please. We just need to be an example.
From Elder & Sister Rice
Don't share extra long just because you're the Facilitator
Time yourself and the missionaries
Make sure your alarm is loud enough for everyone to hear
Don't take a second turn when there's extra time at the end of the meeting
Make sure others stay within their time limits
Where possible, obtain contact information from participants
If none of the participants offer to say the prayer, you should offer.
