Give the Gift of Hope

Hey gang! Last chance for a disaster relief trip in 2006! I'll be leading a team leaving "Boxing Day" Dec. 26 at 8:00 am and returning Monday afternoon, January 1st. Point of departure will be Westerville Christian Church, 471 College Avenue, Westerville, Ohio 43081. We will drive straight through on the way down and spend new years eve together in Birmingham on the way home.
Work will consist of demo (demucking) and reconstruction.

We have 12 people from Westerville Christian and New Life Canal Winchester signed up so far and will build a transportation plan around as many people as can go. We can also arrange other points of departure around other major Ohio cities if there is interest and join up in Cincy for the drive down together. Let me know as soon as possible if you are interested.

You can find a PDF flyer to print off and share with your work and church family at Servants Unite Christmas 2006.PDF.

Please be praying for our next trip leaving December 16. 55 Westerville South IB students and parents will be heading down to work for the week! This ministry continues to be an outreach to volunteers as well as storm victims.

More trips will continue after the first of the year, but will be focused on reconstruction and hosted by a different organization. Hilltop's present plans are to shut down their facility after year end. You can keep track of their ministry at www.hilltoprescue.org. Servants Unite will continue to partner with Hilltop on new projects as they arise.
