Foyer Groups (Supper Club)
|
|
Foyer Groups are being formed and will be starting up soon. For newcomers, or anyone not familiar with Foyer Groups - it is like a supper club. The groups will meet every other month (six times a year) in a different member's home, or a restaurant, or even the parish hall. This is a great way for newcomers to meet fellow parishioners. It is open to singles and couples, young and old (adults only). For more information or to sign up, contact Sallie Honeycutt or (417) 294-7796.

For those of you who signed up for Oktoberfest, we've ordered the bratwurst and are looking forward to serving you on October 30th. And we could still use a few volunteers to bring potato salad (German or your regular family favorite) and sauerkraut--the sign-up sheet for that is still posted in the parish hall. Thanks!

Take a quick look at the Planning Page (link below) for our 2015 DR Mission Trip. Obviously, many of the pertinent details are not yet in place, but this will give our former missioners a link to send their interested friends. While these initial details may not be inspiring, your stories of what a previous trip meant to you are. Tell your story and help us recruit a really strong team!

We recently received some new pictures from the school in El Pedregal. These are the first pictures that we have seen of every classroom and the active use of the playground we built in June 2014 in partnership with the Nebraska youth mission team.
