Use the Assignments Material window to provide all the key information for the Apply Yourself to the Field Ministry section of the midweek meeting.

Under normal circumstances you will not have to display this window, since the volunteers who provide the monthly data will fill it in for you. However, if you are using a language that doesn't have a volunteer, or if you are preparing your schedule in advance of the volunteer then you will need to specify this information.

The Assignments Material window has 4 main sections:

Section 1 — Discussion Items
Section 2 — Student Items
Section 3 — Reset
