In reply to Debra. Hi Debra, you could do it either way. In a smaller group it can be fun to guess the giver after the gifts have been given.

In reply to Debra. I'm guessing there is no card attached so that the giver remains a mystery until the gift is opened... but maybe both are options?

Is this supposed to be anonymous or do you put a card?

In reply to Cyndee Ownbey. Personally, I like smaller groups. Then I can visit more one on one with people

In reply to teresa davis. Teresa, your turnout is going to be unique to your church - both in size and in situation. Please don't feel bad if your numbers are smaller! I encourage you to survey your women to uncover what they are interested in and when their schedule would allow them to attend.

How do you get 80 women to come to your event. Most events I can only get about 15 to 20 most say
that there to busy or it’s not a good day, mainly it is just away to stay disconnected from the rest of
the church they think just filling a chair on Sunday is Good enough. can you give me any ideas.

In reply to Rosi Fowler. With 80 women you might just want to encourage them to admire one another's ornaments as they make their way back to their seat. It doesn't have to be a big production.

In reply to Rosi Fowler. Yes, Rosi! You've got it! Women love to admire each other's ornaments. :)

Make sure you provide an opportunity for the big reveal – it gives everyone the opportunity to ooh and aah!…Do you mean just allowing time to unwrapping their ornaments?
