ASP Adults-only trips planned for fall

Adults, would you enjoy doing home repair in the mountains this fall?  Our friends Bill and Rosemary Pate are planning their adults-only fall trips with Appalachia Service Project.  They will be having an organization and training meeting on Saturday, August 27 from 11 am to 2 pm at Christ the King Lutheran Church in Cary. Lunch will be provided.  Call the CUCC office to get the Pate's contact information to RSVP for lunch.

From the Pates:  "The first trip is a long weekend October 6-9 traveling to The ASP Guyan Valley Center in Brenton, West Virginia. We will travel on Thursday, work on Friday and Saturday and travel home Sunday. The cost of the trip is $145 per volunteer .
The second trip will be a week long stay November 6-12 at The Appalachia Service Project Center , Jonesville, VA. We travel on Sunday, work 5 days then return home on Saturday. The cost is $ 300 per volunteer.
If you have volunteered with ASP in the past you know what a good feeling it is to help improve living conditions for needy families. You also know that there is work for every level of abilities. The only real requirement is a servant's heart. We would love to speak with anyone who needs more information about the program. There is also a lot of information and several videos available at the Appalachia Service Project's website : asphome.org"

The Pates maintain a scholarship account to defray costs as needed so don't let the money prevent you from going.
