Keep Checking!!!

I only have a few minutes (everything has been amazingly busy lately) but I wanted to get some very important info out to all of you!


First - GREAT job on the Chili Supper everyone! While the final amounts are still to be determined (the end result for each student will be determined by the final number of students who actually go) the chili supper was a HUGE success - we did raise almost $3000! Everyone had a blast and we raised a lot of money toward the trip - the final amounts per student will be out soon!


NOW FOR THE IMPORTANT STUFF:


I leave on Monday morning (REALLY early) for the advance trip to Honduras!


Pastor George and I are heading down to meet with the team on site, see where the team (students and adults) will sleep, eat and work and get some much needed exposure to what we will be doing while we are there!


This is an important trip for each of us for a couple of reasons: not only does this trip give us an incredible amount of important details that are vital to effective and safe planning, but I will be blogging during this trip (complete with pictures) so CHECK EVERY DAY NEXT WEEK for updates on the progress of the advance trip - I am positive it will be exciting!!!


MANDATORY TEAM MEETING:

Also, don't forget the team meeting (team orientation and such) that was mentioned in your last parents letter. Thursday, March 20th is a mandatory ALL TEAM meeting. ALL STUDENTS and at least one parent should plan to attend. At this meeting, we will see more pictures and videos and will talk about some very important details of the trip (like vaccinations, money, deadlines, etc).

ANY INTERESTED STUDENTS OR PARENTS SHOULD PLAN TO BE AT THIS MEETING ON THURSDAY, MARCH 20th IN THE YOUTH CENTER
IN THE NORTH CAMPUS!
