Middle School Mission Trip "Last Call"

I wanted to send one last invitation to participate in this summers mission trip set to take place July 25th -30th in Birmingham Alabama.

Hello Episcopal Youth Community,

Our Episcopal group  of 17 will include youth and adults from Trinity, St. Matthias and Asheville. Once we are at the site we will join forces with other youth groups from various churches and live together for the week as a community of 80 or so new friends. 

A typical day at a YOUTHWORKS! site entails devotions, shared help in meal preparation and clean up, going out into the community for service projects, returning for showers and dinner, evening outings to area attractions, evening program time, and small group time w/ your home church. One of our outings will include a visit to the Civil Rights Museum.

So far the EYC crew from ALL SOULS includes: Alex Melton, Anne Worth, Joseph Allensworth, and Andrew Fairbanks.  I currently have 2 spots available and would LOVE to have some more of the A.S.Cathedral youth on board.  I will only be able to hold these spaces for 10 more days and then we will have to open them up to the youth at Trinity and St. Matthias. The trip is open to anyone who is a rising 6th thru 9th grade student.

Cost for the trip is about 300$ which includes a 250$ tuition fee and 50$ toward travel expenses.  Our plan is to have families contribute 1/3, EYC budget sponsor 1/3 and to RAISE the other third by having each participant sell "SHARES". Share holders will receive an invitation to our dinner presentation that will take place on Sunday, August 29th.

Please take a second to check out the YOUTHWORKS website and give me a call if you have an questions about the trip. 

Going once.....Going Twice... COME on Y'all, "Get on the Bus!"
