30 Hour Famine Information

Good Afternoon,
Thank you to those who were able to come yesterday evening as I went over the details of our 30 Hour Famine this weekend.  If you weren't able to be there, no worries, I have attached the schedule to this email and have shared some links below with you.  
Don't forget, if you aren't getting a text from me on almost a weekly basis, you probably want to sign up for our "REMIND" texts.  You can do so by clicking here: https://www.remind.com/join/drivenws
I am really looking forward to your participation this weekend in the 30 Hour Famine.  As I explained last night, please make an effort to raise some funds for this awesome organization as they fight hunger all over the world for the thousands (16,000/ day under the age of 5) of children that are dying daily.  World vision does not have a specific form that donors need to fill out but rather save on costs by just providing an envelope.  If you didn't get a formal envelope, feel free to use one that you may have at home.  Please bring any money collect to the start of the event on Friday at 6pm.
?As a reminder, you will eat lunch on Friday at school and then we will not have another meal after that.  If you have a medical condition that does not allow you to fast, that is OK, just let me know and we will make arrangements for you to be able to eat.  This is NOT a reason for you to not participate, we want you to be there.   
Please see the attached schedule, if parents you wish to participate in any part of or all of the event, let me know and we can make it happen.  We certainly appreciate any and all help we can get.  All parents are invited to join us for our "break" fast at 6pm on Saturday night.  
Here are some helpful Links:

Once again as a reminder, this is not your traditional lock-in and we will be sleeping.  So please bring the necessary items for an overnight.   
As always, if you have any questions, let me know.  
Have a great week.
In Christ's Love,
Matt
