Last Minute Info!

Hey Students, Family and Friends!

We are only days away from heading out of the Twin Cities and heading into Chicago! I hope you're as exited as I am for this trip! It's going to be an amazing experience and an awesome chance to serve and glorify God in the city. Keep praying for us!

Here are some last minute updates: Our send-off service takes place this Friday, June 15 from 7-8pm in the Hillside Rooms. Anyone is welcome to attend the service. Students do NOT need to bring their luggage to the send-off service.

Sunday, everyone will be wearing their green t-shirts and attending the 9am service. We'll meet in the Cafe and head to service together. Then we'll go to the ten:fifteen srhi service. Bring your luggage with to this service hour! Immediately after the ten:fifteen service we will load the vans. At that time, you can run and grab lunch or bring a sack lunch-either way we want to be leaving the parking lot at noon! Students are welcome to pack small carry-on bags for snacks, drinks, and games. All valuables are asked to stay at home (cell phones, iPods, cd players, etc.). Remember space is tight so pack light!

Also bring $5 for transportation on our Fun Day, $10-15 for snacks/drink along the way (optional), and $20-30 for spending (optional). Please don't bring more than $50 with! Remember to pack your money away in two different places! Don't forget to bring something small for your prayer partner too!

Here are some extra items you may want to consider packing: ear plugs, sunglasses, hair binders, head bands, travel sized items, travel games.

We are so excited for this trip and believe God is going to do some really amazing things during it! If you have questions while we're gone, please contact the Student Ministries office at 952.944.8360 and ask to speak to one our interns, Jeremy and Anna. I've left emergency contact information with them, and distributed the same info at our last parent meeting. Check back here often for updates during the week!

By His Grace.
For His Glory.
