July 2011: Partners visit to WV program work in Appalachia

Have you been wanting a hands-on missions experience? Are you interested in learning more about World Vision programs serving rural West Virginia? Do you desire to develop a closer relationship with other Women of Vision chapter partners?

If yes - please consider joining on a service/vision trip to Appalachia.

Details are still being formed but the trip is shaping up so far as follows:

• Laura Livingston, our SPS Domestic Program Chair, is on point for trip planning. Other chapters are being invited to participate, and sign-up will be on a first come first served basis.
• Participants must be Partners with Women of Vision. (Sign up as a Partner here.)
• Trip will take place the week of July 24, 2011.
• Exact trip duration and schedule of activities yet to be determined - but is expected to include painting houses and other lighter construction work during the week, for local residents in need, as well as helping with VBS, attending church services, visiting local office and storeshouse, etc.
• Trip cost is $450 and includes lodging, meals and extra activities (a fun day, a bbq with local staff, etc.)
• Trip cost does NOT include airfare. Participants will book their own airfare, and, will need to all chip in on the cost of a rental car and gas for the week.

Still interested? Please email wovsouthpugetsound@gmail.com asap and Laura will get back to you to discuss further.
