Application Extension for Mission: Albany

bridgelogosquareGood news, middle schoolers! I just found out that you can sign up for Mission: Albany for a few more weeks until we fill all of our spots! We need applications by June 16th at the absolute latest. Encourage friends to apply as well!

Visit our Forms page to find the application.

Parents, please email me if you have any questions about the trip.
Also, if you (or your student) would like to go, but you feel like there’s something standing in your way, just let me know.

Middle School Mission Deadline

Now that we have our results from the Pancake Breakfast fundraiser, I am pleased to announce an official deadline and price for our Middle School Mission trip to Albany, Georgia.

Applications will be due by May 19th along with a $100 deposit.*

The total cost of the trip will be $230 total (or $130 after the deposit). The incredible support shown at the Pancake Breakfast lowered the cost by $70 a person!

The full total will be due by June 23rd, and students are encouraged to raise money by writing letters to people that do not attend church at Woodmont (as to avoid overwhelming the same group of people with requests) or by any other means necessary, if they so choose.

All middle school students, 6th-8th grade, are encouraged to apply. If you’d like to know more about the nature of the trip, you can learn more here.

 

*If, for some reason, there is not room for a student, or they are not selected as a member of the team, this deposit will be refunded after May 19th.

About: Middle School Mission Albany

Hey families with middle school students!

I’m sure you’ve been wondering more about the Middle School Mission Trip to Albany, Georgia, and I just received a great resource for you!

My friend, Tommy Johnson, youth minister at Westwood Church in Albany was kind enough to write a letter detailing what the week was like for his group last year. We will be teaming up with the Westwood group not only during this week, but also during Jr. IMPACT as we did last summer.

So, if you’re interested in learning more about the trip, check it out here: Mission Change Letter 2013.

We are currently accepting applications for the trip, and you can find out more about that here: Apply for the Middle School Mission Trip.

Apply for the Middle School Mission Trip!

We are now officially accepting applications for the Middle School Mission Trip to Albany, Georgia!

The application can be found here: Mission Albany 2013 Application

You can apply by turning in the application to the black mail box along with a $100 deposit. The deposit will not pay for the entire trip and we will reveal the total cost once we have a clearer picture of the number of people going and how well we do at the pancake breakfast fundraiser. But, as always, if money is an issue please let me (Jesse) know because we have scholarships available and money will never be a reason why a student does not get to participate at anything at WoodmontYG.*

We are also requiring five (5) hours of service that must be done  to qualify for this trip. If you have already logged some hours (must be done between August 2012 – June 2013) be sure to mark them down on the Albany Service Hours Form.

If you have any questions, feel free to email me. I’ll be happy to help!

*Space for this trip is limited, so if a student is not selected, this deposit will be refunded.

Youth Missions Fund Raiser April 29th

We know that summer youth activities can get expensive and we never want money to be a reason for a student to not be able to experience all the awesome things we have planned. So, on Sunday April 29th during 2nd service and lasting until 1:00 pm, WoodmontYG will host a Breakfast for Lunch fundraiser in the youth room. We will ask all students wanting to take part in a summer trip to volunteer for the event in some way. We will also be asking everyone at church who is willing to not go out to a restaurant that Sunday and come support WoodmontYG missions instead by pigging out on pancakes, bacon, sausage, and orange juice.

For now, if you are wanting to go on a trip with us this summer, please plan on being there and starting spreading the word to everyone you know to come get “Breakfast for Lunch” in the youth area on Sunday April 29th.
