On Sunday June 17th, the Wellington YouthGroup will be leaving for their first summer service trip. We will be making the 7 hour drive from Wellington Ave to St. Germain, Wisconsin to work with the fine folks at Moon Beach Camp in St. Germain, Wisconsin.
At this time, I am expecting anywhere from 5-15 teens to be joining us, so I am looking for at least two vans or one 15 passenger van rental.
If you have access to either of these things – or know someone who might and can cut us a deal – please contact me at your soonest convenience.
In other words, HOOK IT UP! for Jesus. 
Thanks. peace,

My Kind of Town
World Premiere
by John Conroy | directed by Nick Bowling
For nearly 20 years, John Conroy has covered the Chicago police torture scandal as a journalist, becoming one of the leading voices drawing public
attention to the allegations. His two decades probing the halls of power and reporting on ruined lives culminate in this groundbreaking new drama. Stories inspired by victims, police officers, prosecutors, and families whose lives have been poisoned by the scandal are interwoven into a thoughtful and passionate examination of corruption, responsibility, and the culture of law and order.
