BVS Connections Dinner

Hello, Illinois/Wisconsin District! My name is Ben Bear and I'm a volunteer with Brethren Volunteer Service working with public relations and recruitment. We're hosting a dinner at York Center Church of the Brethren on Friday, May 15, at 6:30pm. Here's the announcement:

BVS Connections Dinner: Whether you're a longtime supporter or interested in learning more about Brethren Volunteer Service, come join us at York Center Church of the Brethren in Lombard, Ill., at 6:30pm on Friday, May 15, for an evening of food, fellowship, and stories! BVS will be providing a (free!) simple meal of pasta and salad while we gather to share stories from any current or alumni volunteers present. One of the BVS staff will be present to talk about BVS, its work in our world, and how you can become involved. RSVP to Ben Bear by email (bbear@brethren.org), call/text (703.835.3612), or by attending the event on the BVS Facebook page. See you there.

If there's a way or place to share this information with other congregations in the district, that would be great! If not, maybe it could be added to the district calendar on your webpage. If nothing else, at least y'all know now! Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for your work!
