Hey Team,

I'm excited to begin planning our Christmas Celebration on Sunday, December 20, and before I move forward, I need to know who is available to serve.

This celebration will bring together our core worship ministries along with additional singers and musicians, and your response will help me plan wisely. Some of those I'll be inviting will be traveling from out of town, so I'd like to begin making those plans as soon as possible.

Please text me personally at (865) 765-1733 as soon as you read this, or no later than Tuesday, August 18.

Please use one of these responses:

John Smith – YES, I will attend on December 20.

OR

John Smith – NO, I will not attend on December 20.

Please do not reply in the group chat. Text me directly so I can keep track of everyone's response.

Thank you for taking a moment to respond promptly. Whether your answer is Yes or No, your reply will help me move forward with planning and extending invitations with confidence.

Thank you all for your faithfulness. I'm excited about what God has in store, and I can't wait to celebrate together this Christmas!

— John
