*If you are registering your child for both our mission trip and Jumpstart your mission trip deposit is not due until April 1st (and that is not a joke!)  Please register them for both now and click the pay later button for the mission trip.

Students will need to be at the church by  5:30 on Friday.  They should eat dinner or a snack before coming to the church.  We will not be making any scheduled stops on the trip.

We plan on being back to the church around 11:30ish on Sunday.
