I'm excited to be able to fill you in on some fun for our trip to Zambia! Here's what you've missed since my last post:
#1 - My passport paperwork has been processed! (Say that 10 times fast!) Woohoo! Thanks to special friends Mike and Dianne. I love you both, and I truly appreciate that gift!
#2 - Our church session has approved two fundraisers for the VERY near future! I've been waiting to fill you in, and now that we have approval, I've got some fun details for you!
First, we will be having a Yankee Candle fundraiser from September 21st through October 10th. This is right at the end of the month, so hopefully you'll be able to buy a candle (or two or three!) from us at this time. We'll have brochures to hand out soon, but if you want to start a "wish list," I certainly won't stop you! These will be here before Thanksgiving, so it's a great time to order some fabulous fall scents for your holiday get-together. It's also the perfect time of year to order Christmas gifts. Please consider placing an order with us when our brochures are available!

Have you been thinking about this trip to Zambia and wished you could be a part of the mission? Well, you don't have to travel to Africa to experience the call of the wild!
The Sisters of Zambia are hosting an African Bush Barbecue, located in the safety of South Enota Drive!
Where:
First Presbyterian Church
800 S. Enota Drive
When:
Friday, October 5th
5 pm - 7 pm
Here's our menu:
BBQ Pork
Curry Chicken
Vegetable Beef Stew
Macaroni & Cheese
Rice
Couscous Salad
Baked Beans
Hot Dogs
Tea / Lemonade / Water
We will also have assorted desserts and wild animal cookies for the kids! Children will be able to decorate their own cookies in the shape of elephants, monkeys, and other safari animals.
Of course, in order for this to be a traditional bush barbecue, we have to have a huge bonfire! We are also pleased to announce that there will be live music for your enjoyment as well, so bring your favorite outdoor chair and prepare for a fabulous evening out!
Tickets for adults: $20 each
Tickets for kids: $5 each (for families with lots of children, all of your children can eat for $10 total)
Order your tickets from any Sister of Zambia today!
It'll be great fun, and we ain't "lion!"
Love in Christ,
Dallas
