1. Ice Skating Date Change (Sunday, March 22, 2009 @ Wollman Rink, Central Park, New York): The official date change for this event is March 22, 2009. More than 1,500 Adventist Young Adults, Youth, Pathfinders, Adventurers, and of course, adults will gather at Wollman Rink, in Central Park for this great event. The place is big, the price is great, the fellowship is awesome, and it is a great opportunity to make a positive statement in a public place on behalf of our church. Everyone is invited; this is an excellent outreach opportunity, you can invite your non-Adventist friends, neighbors, school and work colleagues. A nice way to teach them that, we, Seventh-day Adventist live a happy, balanced, and spiritual life and that healthy recreation is a part of that.

2. Jamaica Mission Trip (April 5-12, 2009): Registrations are coming in for our first Mission Trip of this year. If you are planning to go on this trip, you must send in your registration soon.
This trip is for Young Adults, College University Students, and of course we will not turn down a teen or an adult wanting to go. The Mission is open for Missionaries wanting to make a difference for the Lord outside of our US boundaries. We will work in partnership with the Central Jamaica Conference Youth Department in the Infirmary and the communities of Spanish Town.
The cost of the Trip is $1285.00 and includes: Airfare, Food, Lodging, local transportation, T-shirt, bottled water, and a donation towards the mission projects we will work on while there. Sightseeing trips, tours, and souvenirs, will be optional and will have an extra cost.
If there is someone who wishes to contribute to this trip with funds, Tax Deductible Donations are welcomed and needed. They will go directly and exactly to our mission projects. If you find people who are able to donate $1,000.00, $500.00, etc. The funds will be used to alleviate the needs of a deprived community in Spanish Town, Jamaica.
If you would like to participate in this trip, send the Registration Form with the down-payment for the trip to our Office. The AY Leader of each church has received the Registration Forms for all the Mission Trips as well as the flyers.
