We are less than 2 weeks away from this year's Mexico Mission Trip. Plans have been made, the servants have been prepared and we are ready for God to work through our team of 75. It's now time to pack and give our last minute instructions.
The important last minute instructions were reviewed with those going on the trip and with parents at yesterday's Servant and Parents' Meetings. If you missed these meetings, you should download the Parents' Meeting materials and listen to the recording of the Parents' Meeting at:
Even if you attended yesterday's Parents' Meeting, you should download the meeting materials because I have updated them with some of the information that was missing yesterday.
A summary of some of the key points you need to know include:
1. Everyone is to deliver their bag and check in at the Student Center between 10:00 and 10:30 on Saturday, June 21.
2. Everyone is to check-in in the Life Center by 6:30 on Sunday, June 22.
3. See the meeting materials for a list of what to pack and listen to the recording for clarification and for what not to pack. Everything should fit into a duffel bag that your student can carry.
4. Parents should write a letter to their kids that we can surprise them with during the week. Turn your letter in to Patty's drawer in the Student Center over the next couple of weeks or drop it off during Bag Drop on Saturday, June 21.
5. Send $40-60 spending money with your student. Pack most in their bag but give them some (maybe $10) for their backpack on the bus for a Walmart stop before we cross the border.
6. Check gdlcmmt.blogspot.com for updates on the trip during the week.
7. Check gdlcmmt.blogspot.com or Pastor Lonnie's voice mail (281-333-4535, x1056) after 3:00 on Sunday, June 29 for our expected arrival time at Gloria Dei (likely around 5:00).
We're counting the days! Please contact me, Patty Dillon or Lonnie if you have any questions before we leave.
