Rethink Hunger September 30th DID YOU KNOW? --One out of every eight Americans struggles with hunger. --Approximately 25,000 persons die of hunger and hunger related causes every day. That's over 1,000 men, women, and children dying every hour of every day. What can YOU do? The students of Wesley will be promoting awareness for Hunger Action Month out on the Main Quad next Thursday, September 30th from 10 am until 2 pm. We are looking for volunteers to help set up (9-10am), sit at our table, pass out fliers, and clean up (2-3pm). If you are interested, please sign up here. We will also be taking donations for the Wesley Evening Food Pantry. UPDATED--Mission Trip to Thailand It has been confirmed! We will be taking our mission trip to Nonthaburi, Thailand the first couple weeks in January. We will be organizing and running a VBS program for orphans with disabilities. Visit www.ccdthailand.org to learn more about the Rainbow Orphanage where we will be staying. The estimated cost of the trip is between $2600 and $3000. We will be doing a lot of fundrasing to hopefully pay about half of that cost. If you are at all interested, you MUST attend one of the following informational meetings: Thursday, October 7th at 7:30pm or Sunday, October 17th at 3:30pm Passport Information If you are interested and you do not currently have a valid passport, you should get one! It will take a couple of months to process the application, so you should apply sooner rather than later. Passports are good for ten years, so even if you don't end up going, it may come in handy later on.
