Learn & Serve (L&S) begins in less than two months! Our eight counselors will begin training the last week in May, and students begin arriving the first week of June. You can see our counselors by heading over to the counselor page on the L&S site. We still have room available for individuals or youth groups during weeks 1, 4, 6 and 9. For information about registering, contact Jamie Waldhour, waldhourj@sifat.org, or click here. Don’t forget about Elementary L&S during Week 5. Click here for more information. Forty (40) spaces are still available for rising 4th-6th graders. We received our February Journal’s from the printer today. If you’re on our mailing list, you should have already received yours or be receiving it soon. Are you not receiving the Journal and would like to be on our mailing list? You can send your name and address to Marie Lanier, lanierm@sifat.org, to receive a printed Journal, or you can sign up for our e-Journal by sending a blank e-mail with the word SUBSCRIBE as the subject to info@sifat.org. ***Correction*** Please note that the Sarah Trust Fund thermometer was incorrect in this month’s Journal. The correct amount should have been $113,430 for February 2008. *** To download a PDF copy of the SIFAT Journal, click here, or go to the news section of the website. The Learn & Serve (L&S) section of our website received a facelift! Check it out at www.sifat.org/learnandserve. L&S is SIFAT’s summer experience for mid-high through senior high students. Both youth groups and individuals can attend. If you are interested in becoming a counselor or attending, contact L&S director Jamie Waldhour, waldhourj@sifat.org. Sessions begin on Sunday afternoon and end Friday morning. L&S 2008 starts June 1 and finishes August 1. We hope to see you for “Three Sixty” The calendars on the website are now fully operational. Thank you for understanding as we strive to get everything working correctly. You can find the calendars on the youth and children page and the training page. As our 2008 short-term mission teams get finalized, we will add a calendar on the missions page. To go directly to the calendars, click the links below. If you rollover an event, more information will appear. If you have a correction or addition to add to our calendars, please contact Haley Lewis at lewish@sifat.org. www.sifat.org has changed! Have you noticed the differences? We now have an e-newsletter and update list you can register for, online calendars, online donations and current photos and information. During the process of getting our new site finished, please “pardon our progress” – we still have some minor problems to work out and fix. The look of the blog will change as we learn how to make it look more like our site. We need to get the calendars posted correctly, so you can find the correct events and a few broken links probably exist. Please hang in for a couple of weeks while we make the needed adjustments. But, we would like you to look around the site and become familiar with where everything can be found now! We have special sections for training, missions and children and youth. We also have a news tab that will let you read the latest articles about SIFAT. How can you help the website?
