There are, of course, a great many specific ways in which the chapter and individual members can assist. What can be done depends on local conditions and the desires of the rector and the chapter members. The chapter referred to above goes through the parish membership list with the rector, identifying those over 12 years of age who are not con­firmed and sends them a letter with a pamphlet on Confirmation. Members of the chapter then follow-up with a telephone call or visit, encouraging attendance, answering questions and asking if the Church can be of assistance with transportation or baby sitters. The rector is furnished a list of the replies so that he can follow-up also in appropriate cases. In some situations, members of the chapter pick up and accompany candidates to the meetings. In some parishes, Brotherhood members arc given an opportunity to talk to the class about participation in parish activities and groups. They extend an invitation to the men to consider the Brotherhood and to the women, The Daughters Of The King or other organizations, as a way to continue their spiritual development.

Chapter members can assist also by leading discussion, and/or providing refreshments. Some chapters sponsor a breakfast after the first Communion of the group and present each Confirmand an appropriate small gift, such as a Brotherhood Bible marker, Bible or one of the small inexpensive Bible commentaries sold by Forward Movement Publications.
