Mission Opportunity
We have been invited to participate in a week long mission trip near Springfield,
MO, by the Washington Presbyterian Church. The trip is June 6 to the 12. It will
begin on Sunday afternoon and end the following Saturday. The work will be to
help elderly and needy people with home repair or modifications like ramps. The
work is coordinated by the Council of Churches. Housing will be at a local church
that has cooking and shower facilities. The cost of the trip is $150 which includes
everything. There will be an informational meeting on April 18th at 12:30 in
Washington. Please sign up if you are interested in going on the Mission Trip and
to the informational meeting. This trip is geared primarily for adults; however youth
between the ages of 13 and 16 can attend but must have a parent present.
ALIVE (Alternatives to Living in Violent Environments) is looking for volunteers to act as receptionists in
their office in Union. The office hours are 9 a.m. through 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. The number of
hours worked and schedule would be up to the volunteer. Please call 583-9863 for further information.
