On our way out to dinner, Dominican -Style

Packing Party next Sunday!

The team will be commissioned at the end of the service. Then we will finish our packing.

Lunch provided of course.

Next Meeting January 16

 A big thank you to all the folks who donated items for the mission. We will continue to collect school supplies, clothing, shoes and small toys till January 16.

And a huge thank you to all who helped pack up supplies! Each team member “adopted” and packed suitcases, will inventory their contents, and bring them to San Juan de La Maguana.

The next team meeting is January 16. The team will be commissioned during the service. Afterwards we will complete the final packing.

A tasty lunch will be provided of course 😊

Prayer Request:

Though we will be flying out of Madison, it may be wise to get the team there the night before. Our flight departs at 6:45 Saturday morning and we need to be at the airport by 4:30AM.

We’re asking for wisdom over an additional $400 cost for the entire team.

Sunday December 19

 Team Meeting

We will gather at Grace Bible Church after the worship service to meet, eat and pack.

Please bring any spare suitcases, your team shirts and questions.

Mucho Importante: (Very Important)

If you have not gotten some medicine for malaria prophylaxis please let me know Sunday. While we have never had a problem among team members, malaria is a nasty disease and it is endemic to the area where we’ll be working.

Team Meeting

 Gather your spare suitcases, questions, and appetite!

We will have our team meeting on Sunday December 19 at Grace Bible Church after the worship service, starting about noon.

With our humanitarian airfare we can each check 3 suitcases. We have 6 large boxes of medications and supplies to distribute as well as some school supplies, toys and clothes for distribution.

And we’ll have some delicious barbecue!

Team Meeting

 The next item on our agenda is to schedule a Team Meeting.

Please let me know which of the following dates will work best:

December 5

December 12

December 19

January 9

January 16

We will go over a brief orientation, distribute team shirts (hopefully) and divide up our medications so bring some spare suitcases. With our humanitarian airfare we will each be allowed to bring 3 checked bags. Since we cannot prepackage our meds this is indeed a blessing.

We need everyone to register on the Solid Rock International website:

The mission team had a very successful "Packing Party" yesterday at church. All donated items were packed and we had sub sandwiches, chips and Pepsi donated by DustyLee!
We are looking forward to the commissioning ceremony next Sunday.
Departure from Grace Bible Church: February 19 at 1PM.
