At the meeting on January 10, 2009 the following items were mentioned as still needed for the trip. Some of these might be solicited from our fellow church members.
1. Seeds - many crops were destroyed by the fall storms in Honduras. They will need seed corn, carrots, just about any crop, to get going again. See Bill McGonagle.
2. Have a Spam Off - a friendly competition among churches! See Darr Wilson.
3. Have a Vitamin Day at Church. We need multivitamins, kids vitamins. See Chris Turner.

From Reid Westmoreland:
Dear All,
It is time (or maybe a little past time) to get things kicked off. I would like to invite everyone to come to St. Mark's in Bay City on Oct. 25th, from 12 (noon) to 2:30 for a meeting to discuss the 2009 Honduras Mission Trip to Corinto. We have several topics of discussion to cover concerning all future trips.
From Reid:
Hi everybody, this is a reminder of our pill packing day.
We will have our Honduras Medical Mission (Pill Packing Party) April 12 (this coming Saturday) at St. Mark's Episcopal Church in Bay City at 9:00am.
As you all know we take a great deal of medicine to Corinto and we need to make our preparations now. If you are available and can come to help it will be greatly appreciated. Bring a friend or two to help, remember the more help we have the faster processing will go and we always have a good time during this activity.
