This Week's Program: Today was primarily a business meeting. Janet Arnold, a friend of John Philipkowski, was here to speak briefly on behalf of "Friends of Barnabas". This organization sends groups to Honduras on a monthly basis. The 15 member group sees about 1500 people in the week they are there. They help provide medical supplies, glasses and dental work. The club matched the members donations of $225 for a total of $450 to the organization. Anyone interested in attended a "mission" can contact Janet Arnold.
