Mission Trip 2011 - How YOU Can Help

Peoples Church is gearing up for our second summer 2011 mission trip! The trip date is set for June 25-July 2, 2011. The destination is back to Urban Promise in Wilmington, DE ministering to underprivileged inner city youth.  You can view a short 2010 Mission Trip Slideshow here. It's worth a peak!
    Those going on the 2011 Mission Trip include:  Earle Harvey, Fred Wade, Ellen Dunn, Isaac Dunn, Nathan Dunn, Carolyn Civitarese and Pastor Gwyneth.
    This year, you may not be "going" on the mission trip, but there are many ways you can still be part of the team.  Here are just a few, and if you have other ideas, please contact Pastor Gwyneth or any of the team members, who in addition to the above going on the trip include Betty Lane, Betty Smith, Shane and Joely Ross, and others are always welcome.

• Attend the Send-Off in the church parking lot on Saturday, June 25 at 8am to show your support for the whole team.
• Sign up for a slot in the prayer-vigil during the trip, which will cover the whole team in prayer during travel and mission-hours of their trip.
• Donate mission supplies. List from Urban Promise to be provided soon.
• Take an angel from the tree to support the team financially. For gas cards, it is most convenient for the team to purchase American Express cards so they can be used at any gas station. Or if you prefer, you can donate with cash or check which will be converted to American Express cards.
• Serve as a Prayer Buddy for one member of the team, whom you covenant to pray for regularly throughout the trip as well as attend the send-off and welcome home to show your support for him/her.
• Attend the Welcome-Home in the church parking lot on Saturday, July 2 (about 6pm) to welcome the team home.
• Attend worship on July 3 and 10 to hear team members share about their mission experience.
