Lynne, I just sent an email to our minister explaining what we'd like to do and asked how we would go about arranging it. We're getting a handout together for the bulletin as well as some slides for our overhead projector. We have a sharing time at the beginning of our church service, so I can get up and explain what the day is about. I also thought about doing up stickers with Landon's awareness ribbon on it to hand out at the door and people could wear them. (If I could afford buttons, I'd do that) I thought this way people are bound to leave wearing them and have someone else ask them what they're about. I just took the idea and ran with it...I don't think there's a right or wrong.

I am all set at my church too! We have some other things going on that day so we will be doing this on Sunday, May 10th if this alright. This is Mother's Day. I can get the only Ministry Moment on that day. I figure any time to spread awareness is a good time!

Anytime is fine, Lynne!!!!
WTG everyone!!!!! We're having an NC picnic on that day and a balloon release at the park.
Plus, everyone please light candles at 7:00 pm in your time zone and say a prayer (or wishes)... that way we can have it continuously going around the world for 24 hours.
And PLEASE post this to your blogs and sites to get more people involved!!!

Lynne, I was just going to use Avery round labels and print them at home.
