  • Great job at Moes last night! It seemed like everyone had a great time. I haven’t heard yet from Michelle about how much we made, but I will let you know when I hear.
  • This week our youth schedule is back to normal, but remember that the 30 hour famine is next weekend. I do need to know if you will be attending to make sure that you will get a water bottle and that you will have transportation to our service site. You can sign up on the youth room door or email me if you have not already done so. So far we have 8 youth, Andrew Lee and me signed up.  Download more Famine info: 30 Hour Famine2012.pdf
