Mission Trip is May 9-16, 2016
|
The Go Team is making final preparations for our mission trip to work with our friends in the Dominican Republic. One big step this week was getting the design set for our team t-shirts -- "cardinal red" this year. We wear these colorful t-shirts when passing through the Orlando and Santo Domingo airports as a way to help stay together and to emphasize to the Dominican immigration and customs officials that we are a church-sponsored group and that all of the supplies and equipment we are bringing with us are intended for use in a Dominican Episcopal church community.
There is still time to donate scholarships to the school. We will print a certificate to present to the priest in charge when we leave on May 8 but will not send the money until July 1. A full scholarship is $350 per child. Partial scholarships are also appreciated and combined with donations by other people. Thanks for your generosity!
We have also established a Facebook photo album where we will be posting several preparation photographs and then an initial set of photographs from the Dominican Republic while the trip is in progress (depending on Internet connections in El Pedregal). If you would like to see our team t-shirt and start following along as we get ready to go, click the album linked below:
