Packing List for John's Island 7/21 - 7/28

Hello Family,

We will meet at 7:30 am on Sunday, 7/21 at St. John’s. We will attend the 7:45 am service, and be commissioned by St. John’s to be the hands and feet of Christ in the world. We will leave after the 7:45 service, head over to St. Joe’s and pick up some more people acting as servants in the name of Christ, and head to John’s Island. Home Works will have lunch ready for us when we get down there. We will be taking 3 vehicles – Cliff Moore’s truck, John Boyleston’s Car, and the Youth Bus. Lockey, I will get you the address, or Cliff can chime in with the exact address.
We will be returning in time for the 10:30 am service on 7/28.
