Trip to Valley Forge - June 7th

65251-004-781B84E7

On Saturday, June 7th a group of youth from the classical parochial schools at St. Andrews RE Church (Lake Almanor, Ca) and Chapel of the Cross (Dallas) will be in town as the guests of St. Mark’s.

We would like to take them for an excursion to Valley Forge but in order to do so, we need parishioners who are willing to come along and drive (if you are willing to drive but do not want to stay for the day, that’s ok).

We plan to leave the church at 10:30 and return at 3.

Are you willing to come along and drive? We need seats for 20 people. This will be a fun time of fellowship and a great opportunity to get to know students from fellow REC parish schools.

RSVP to Fr. Jason if you are willing to take part in this.
