SCRIPTURE THEMES

Daniel 12:3
Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever.

Philippians 2:15
That you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe.

THEME DEVELOPMENT IDEAS

DECORATE THE ENTRY,
PUBLIC AREAS, RESTROOMS & STAGE

You could go two directions and either would include decorating with all kinds of stars everywhere!

Stars in the Sky Decor
Decorate your facility to remind one of a starry sky -- with hanging stars of white and navy with silver glitter accents.

Star Search Decor
Decorate with "Grammy Awards" in mind. This idea is ideal for honoring volunteers who have gone above and beyond and should be done as a gala evening event with red carpet, formal attire and sparkling catawba. If you have a decent decorating budget and want to go all out, Shindigz offers an amazing set-up. Search for items KSLSSBLU and KSSTW.

Imagine the delight of Sunday School teachers or other volunteers receiving "awards" at such an event here on earth while awaiting their real "reward" in heaven!

Shooting Star Awards, like the one shown at left, are available HERE for under $5 each. Search for item AP342331.

WELCOME ACTIVITY
Beforehand, create 1 star of painted cardboard for each guest. As they arrive, even before they enter the building, have someone greet them, and using a large black magic marker, write their name [calligraphy-style] onto a star. They should then take the star with them into the building where they will be encouraged to add it to the growing "Sidewalk of Stars" leading into the main area. Note: Have your leadership team put theirs down before guests begin arriving so the first gals get to walk on something fun.

SUGGESTED CRAFT PROJECT
Your women will enjoy making and taking these candle "Star Jars". The craft is easy and can be done in 45 minutes. Supply requirements include mason jars, small paint brushes, inexpensive paints and beads. Find a printable worksheet by visiting Michaels Online and searching for project #24201 or Beaded Star Jar.

TAKE HOME GIFT IDEA
If you have nine days and $2.25 per guest (assuming you have 100 guests), you can send each guest home with an imprinted "Star Massager" as a reminder of her value to God. These can be imprinted with the event title plus either the date or the Scripture reference. Visit Oriental Trading and search for the Star Massager, Item Number IN-80/2367.

PROMOTE YOUR EVENT
WITH A FUNDRAISER

Do you need to raise funds for an orphanage, a summer camp scholarship fund, or a group of indiginous missionaries? Create "star" luminary bags and "sell" them. Donations should reflect how much it costs to support a child or missionary for one day or one month, or how much it costs to send one inner city child to camp for one day or week.

Get as many women as possible involved ahead of time collecting donations for luminaries. Then, on the evening of the event, line the path to the building with them. Click HERE for luminary fundraiser instructions and HERE for a Word.doc you can personalize to use as fundraiser donation receipts.

STAR TEMPLATE SET

Our template sets include all the promotional pieces you would typically use to publicize an event, but in a ready-to-go, easy-to-personalize format: Posters, Bulletin Inserts, Tickets, Programs, PowerPoints, Response Cards, Postcards and more. Super easy!

POSTER MAKER
The poster and PowerPoint template produces top quality prints. The Word.doc opens right onto your computer where you will be able to enter your own event details easily then print them out onto regular white, 8-1/2x11" paper.

BULLETIN INSERTS/PROGRAMS
This opens into Word as a two-up. Simply enter your text into the available spaces and print.

POSTCARDS
This is a 4-up page which opens into a .pdf file online. It automatically repopulates all four sections when you type your text into the upper left segment. Once laid out, you simply print onto card stock, cut and mail.

TICKETS
16-per page, this template again opens into a .pdf file so it will automatically repopulate the 15 other segments when you type your text into the upper left hand box. So easy!

THANK YOU NOTES
This prints onto white 8-1/2x11" paper, which you fold into traditional card size. The front features the theme photo and "Thank You". There is room inside for a handwritten note.
