Local Sports Calendar

An open community meeting is planned for 7:30 PM Wednesday August 23 at Faith Lutheran church in Shumway to survey interest in various short term mission opportunities. Anyone who might consider joining a team to travel to foreign or USA locations to complete a service or mission outreach project is invited to attend. Locations, time of year, type of activity, and method of financing the trip will be discussed. Previous participants will be available to answer questions and provide information.

The goal is to formulate goals and plans for future trips. Information provided by attendees will be used to seek out opportunities with sponsoring organizations. The available options will be presented at a later date when teams may be formed. The teams will then work together with the sponsoring organization to organize travel and plan service or mission activity.

Some specific ideas will be presented as well as known sponsors but it is hoped that the meeting will generate additional options for consideration.

If there are any questions please contact Norbert Soltwedel at 217-868-2833
