Barbecue and Final Phone Calls

Hi Friends,

We’re getting incredibly close to you folks flying out of here for RUSSIA!!.

Tonight Julie or Haley will be calling your parents with some final trip information. Here’s what they’re going to be contacting them about.

They will be letting them know about the Barbeque/Potluck on Sunday night. This Sunday night. On Father’s Day. We’re gathering is this coming Sunday….NOT Monday…Lisby. THIS SUNDAY. We’ll be meeting at 5pm at West Chehalem Friends Church. Julie and Haley will be letting your parents know what they can bring for the meal, either a salad or a side dish.

Here are the directions to West Chehalem:

Coming into Newberg on 99W. Turn right on College St. Go about two miles until you get to North Valley Rd. You’ll know you’re about at North Valley Rd. when you pass North Valley Friends Church. Turn left onto North Valley Rd. and go about 4 miles until you get to the church on your left. You’ll know you’re getting close when you pass the elementary school that is at the four-way stop at Dopp Rd.

When you come to the barbeque on Sunday night, you should be coming packed for your entire trip. This includes your time of the orientation before and debriefing afterwards. So you need to bring a sleeping bag and pillow. Those of you not able to get home after the trip, but will be staying in the area until Yearly Meeting, you will need to also pack for Yearly Meeting. We will store your stuff in Newberg while your in Russia.

Julie and Haley will also be asking for your shirt size for the YCEW t-shirt.

Julie and Haley will also be checking in about shots, reminding your parents to bring the notarize minor travel consent form, and seeing if your folks have any other questions.

Are there questions that you have that are still hanging out there?

Blessings,
Paul
