PACKETS - FOR WALKS - 9 X 12 MANILLA ENVELOPES
These packets contain Emmaus information and a picture of the group.

How to Prepare/Sort
Each packet should have person's name written on outside. Packets should be grouped by table. SD's packet should be packed same as Pilgrims'.
Packets should be put on a tray (or in a box) and put in a room close to the Conference Room. (Agape Letters are put in individual Agape bags and grouped by table. They should be put in same place as boxes of packets but ARE NOT GIVEN OUT AT SAME TIME.) Packets are given out, explained by Spiritual Director and then direction will be given to hand out Agape Letters. If Agape Team is assisting, they should take direction from Spiritual Director. May be a good idea to discuss with SD before the time. The Assistants should know where all are located.
