Advent and Christmas Church Office Planner: Schedules, Sign-Ups, Run Sheets, 25 Pages

Between Thanksgiving and the first Sunday of Advent, the church office has to get every bulletin, sign-up and service in order. This is a 25-page printable planner for the church secretary or administrator who does that work, with pages to fill in by hand from early November to Epiphany.

HOW IT WORKS
Print the pages you need and copy any page as often as you like. Every total is added by hand. No page names one denomination's offices or sets out a liturgy, so it fits any church.

GOOD TO KNOW
The dates on page 3 were checked against a printed calendar and a church lectionary calendar. If your church keeps a day on another date, use the blank page 4. For candles, decorations and building use, follow your church's own building policy. This is a digital download; no physical item is shipped.
