Meetings:
We will have an introductory meeting date tbd
We will also meet after the team blessing at the 10:15 a.m. mass at St. Nick's on Sunday, July 20th.
Stock sales:
We will be selling stock together. This helps cover some of the cost of van rental, food, lodging and other trip expenses. It also helps our church communities become aware of who we are and feel more connected to us and to the mission. Our stock sales will take place after masses at St. Nicholas and St. Mary's dates tbd but usually early May and early June.
Pre-trip Experiences:
We will plan some other pre-trip experiences to prepare for our journey and begin learning. You are also welcome to explore opportunities on your own. See Pre-trip activities.
Pre-trip experiences will present opportunities to learn and share so that we can engage with our own group and the communities we visit as respectfully as possible. We strive to do no harm. Although we will try to accommodate schedules for potential group activities, we cannot always accommodate everyone. Be aware that these activities are considered essential to our trip experience. We understand unavoidable conflicts but try to schedule around these activities when possible. If you miss a meeting please make up any reading or movie watch and discuss with someone from the team.
Post trip community talk
We will have a post trip info session with our church community to share what we have learned.
