For the event organiser

An overview of the process and expectations to be given to the organiser of an event Acts VI Catering will cater for.

Partnership in the gospel

It is our hope and prayer that the Acts VI catering ministry is able to help create an environment into which the Word of God is taught and the people of God built up. For you as the event organiser, this makes it easier to ensure that the catering for your event works well. We take care of the catering – planned to your budget and requirements. In order for this partnership to work, we would love the opportunity to work with and train people from within your congregation to serve others in this way in the future.

Expectations

As we partner together in the gospel, it is helpful to map out what the default expectations of the chef, and the event organisers. This helps free us up to serve each other knowing who is going to make their best effort to take care of what – in order that Christ would be preached into an environment brought about by brothers and sisters in Him, united.

The following are all flexible to some extent so that we can serve one another to serve others.

 Event costs for caterers

When catering for an event, the costs (accommodation, food etc) of the chefs will be met by the event organisers.

Budget

From the total catering budget, we use 80% for direct event expenses such as food and the remaining 20% for running costs and equipment. While Acts V1 makes every effort to keep to budget, if food costs increase beyond that of the projected budget these costs need to be passed on to the event organisers.

Transactions

To be able to keep catering costs as economical as possible it is helpful for funds to be available in the Acts6 catering account (kindly provided through the Campus Church Trust) a minimum of two weeks in advance of the event. If payment is to be made by cheque, the cheque will need to be received by the Campus Church office 10 working days before this time. Electronic transfers or deposits are processed within 1-2 days typically.

Funds can be transferred/deposited to:

Campus Church Trust
01-0819-00447820-00

Some electronic transfer forms only allow 7 digits in the account field, in which case use 01-0819-0447820-00

Cheques can be made payable to Campus Church Trust and posted to the office at: 193 Waimari Rd, Ilam, Christchurch

You will receive a GST invoice for both the deposit and the final payment.
