DR Go Team Says: Thank You!
|
The eight members of our 2016 DR mission team (the Go Team) thank everyone on the Home Team who participated in the DR Dinner & Auction on April 8. With the expenses of the catered dinner deducted, we raised over $13,000 for our team projects and for scholarships at the K-8 Episcopal school in El Pedregal. Photographs from the April 8 event are online as a Facebook album here and a Picasa album here. The next DR event will be the commissioning of the Go Team by Fr. Dave on May 8, and then the team will fly to Santo Domingo on May 9. |

Molly Stevenson is the chair of this committee and other members include Bill Querin, Sheri Gravett, Jeff Worn, Grace Tanner, and Steph Johnson.
