It's almost summer and summer means youth mission trip and choir tour!
The 2010 Youth Mission Trip & Choir Tour is being planned now and sign-ups are underway! Below you'll find ALL of the information and print-offs you need to get signed up and ready to serve others by spreading Christ's love and works!
WHERE: Kansas City, MO/KS

COST: $200 (if you sign up by March 14; price may increase slightly after March 18).
$20 Mission Share certificates (CLICK HERE) can be sold to help offset the cost of the trip. For each mission share sold, $10 will be contributed to the seller's mission trip cost.

TRIP DETAILS: We'll travel to Kansas City via Amtrak and, while there, work in a variety of mission fields, sing in a number of places, enjoy a day at Worlds of Fun, eat Kansas City BBQ, and more!
NOTICE:
A $50 non-refundable deposit is needed no later than Thursday, March 18 to lock in the lowest possible cost.
Sign-ups will continue through March and April, though the final price after March 18 will depend on when you sign up as prices may change due to AmTrak and Worlds of Fun booking and reservation fees.
