Due to weather conditions, all in-person daytime and evening programs have been canceled across the church’s locations for Wednesday, except for the Recovery programs and Food Pantry at Overland Park. Decisions for Thursday daytime programs will correspond with local school district decisions and will be posted on the church’s website.
Scheduled programming has resumed for Thursday, February 13 at all Resurrection locations.
The total number of books we are lugging across an ocean, a continent, an equator and eight time zones is unknown, but we do know we are taking about 480lbs of new and gently books & games, which were obtained through the resourceful hunting of various members of the group. We are also supplying the library with three new laptops to be used for educational and administrative purposes.
Fun fact: the team members all agreed to use their large, checked suitcases to transport as many books as possible. This sacrifice has necessitated the use of carry-on bags and backpacks for personal items (you know, things like clean clothes and deodorant). Maybe I can give an assessment of our collective odoreferousness upon our return.
