Use this template as a guide to send to a partner who has given you new names. Have them copy and paste the last section of the e-mail in a new e-mail to anyone they are introducing you to. Include an attachment of your leaving piece with the e-mail or a link to a ministry website.
Scott,
Thanks for your quick response and desire to help connect us with others who would love to hear about our ministry. That is really encouraging!
I have attached two documents that give some info on Sarah and me and the ministry here at BGSU. If you could attach them to the e-mail that you send, that would be great. Also, below I have given some thoughts regarding what you could say or write to a person you would be introducing us to. Feel free to make any changes you want; it is just a guide. Thanks for all your work! And if it is possible, it would be helpful to have as many names as you feel comfortable with – of course, you know that, but just want to restate the importance of meeting new people in the support-raising process!
Thanks for all your work and help. Let me know if you have any questions regarding the below information.
In Christ,
Bryan Wiles

Dear …,
I wanted to let you know about some friends of mine that I met a few years ago, Bryan & Sarah Wiles. They are ministry workers with an organization called Reliant Mission. They are involved with reaching young people with the Gospel both nationally and internationally. The Wiles' are currently working to reach students on the campus of Bowling Green State University with a church called h2o. I have attached some information about them and what they are doing.
As we have gotten to know each other, I have become excited about what they are doing. So if you don't mind, I was hoping that you might be interested in what Bryan & Sarah do, and I'd love for you to get the chance to talk with them. I wanted to give them your name in hopes that they could contact you and explain more about Reliant, their role in the ministry, and how you may be able to partner with them. I know that they are excited about sharing with others what God is doing through h2o at BGSU.
Again, if it's ok, I hope you are able to talk with Bryan & Sarah. Let me know if you have any questions; otherwise, they should be calling you in the next week or two.
Thanks for your consideration.
Sincerely,
PS. Bryan & Sarah have a ministry website at www.wilescampusministry.net
