Team Dinner!
Hey everybody…
The mission trip is coming soon, only 3 weeks away!!!! To get to know each other better, next week, Thursday July 3rd, we’ll be having a Mexico mission team dinner @ Rudy and Carissa Medina’s house from 6-9 pm. Yummy Mexican food will be served… It would be great if some of you can bring chips/salsa, drinks, and/or dessert. I’ll let you know what you can bring when you RSVP. Oh, and yes–we’ll play some fun games, too!
The address is 106 Amador Watsonville, Ca- off Green Valley. Call or email Carissa for directions. Please RSVP to Emilia @ sillygoose505@yahoo.com by Monday, June 30th…. Thanks and hope to see you there! J
When you RSVP, it would be helpful for planning to know how many are coming (for example, will it just be you or you and your parents)?
P.S., Parents are invited and encouraged to attend!
Another Fundraising Opportunity
Hey Gang, Rach here,
I just wanted to let you in on another fundraising opportunity. My boss is in need of some major work around her house. She needs help in some grounds work (trimming tree branches, filling gopher holes, etc.) (the complete list to come) and she asked me if we might be willing to help her out. She will pay us a good amount of money towards our trip for our work. I will have more details to come but we’ve scheduled it for: Sunday, July 6 (after church). She will provide food, drinks and other yummies. I know that this is short notice but this is something to not miss out on!!!!!
Word.
Personal Contribution Due!
Hi Everyone and happy post-VBS!!!
This is a friendly reminder that our personal contributions of $300 were due last Friday, June 20th. With the business of VBS week, I know we have all been quite preoccupied! Nevertheless, V-B-S is officially D-U-N and our mission trip is less than 3 weeks away! (YEAH!)
I am asking that each team member pays his/her balance by this Friday, June 27th. I believe everyone has paid at least a $50 deposit, so your balance will be $300 minus whatever you have already paid. Joyce, Carissa and I will work on emailing your support AND personal contribution balances to you before the end of this week. In the meantime, you may call/email us on Wednesday to find out.
Also, all support was due last Friday. A good chunk o’ dough came in during VBS week. Once we determine your support balances, some of you may need to contact supporters from whom you have NOT received any response–if you’re still short of your support goal. By “contact” I mean you can either email/call them to ask them to please return their support cards, regardless of whether or not they can give financially.
Talk to you soon! Juarez, here we come!!!
