Schedule Local Needs

By /

NW Scheduler allows elders create and maintain a list of Local Needs subjects and speakers decided by the body of elders (sfl 20:15).

These can then be allocated to upcoming Local Needs parts on the CLM Schedule, and easily adjusted if needed (e.g. to allow for any Governing Body updates).

Local Needs also shows a history of which local needs were given in the last 18 months, by whom, and when.

To schedule and manage Local Needs, click Schedule > Local Needs
