In this training, we will focus on what materials and resources are available to you as an LHM Ambassador, as well as some ideas for ways to use those resources.

3. Promotional Materials
Looking for materials to hand out at your next event?
Here is where you will find materials that you can order free of charge for your event, on the following programs - the Men’s NetWork, The Lutheran Hour/Para el Camino, JCPlayZone, Daily Devotions, and an LHM One-sheeter. Please keep in mind that not everyone at your event will take the promotional items. Please only order half of what you think you will need. For example, if you are expecting 200 people to attend your event, please only order 100 of each of those items you want to hand out.
The maximum quantity for these items available to you at no cost is 200, once per month. If you require more than 200 of an item, you may purchase the additional copies. Additionally, we are happy to provide standard shipping. If you require expedited shipping, additional fees will apply.

Then open the presentation you saved. The notes will appear at the bottom of each slide. These notes provide you with a complete script for the entire presentation.
