The Date

Greetings!

I am very excited about an opportunity that I have this summer to go to Twin Rocks, OR for Summer Camp with my church.  I have talked with my parents and they have agreed to let me go; now I need to begin raising the $ 210 it costs for my share of the trip.

We will be involved in daily chapel services with motivational speaker Caleb Bryant and the Unveiled worship band, as well as regular small groups with our youth leaders. We will also do some fun activities on the beach as well as at the camp.  We leave on July 30st and return on August 3rd.  If you would like to help make this opportunity possible for me, I would be very grateful.  I am writing to you because of our relationship (but your decision whether to give or not doesn’t affect that).  You will have probably heard about it already because of my excitement alone.  If you do give and would like a tax receipt; you can make any checks out to P.C.C.  If you send it to me they will make sure that it is credited to my account and that you receive a receipt.

            Thanks so much for considering my request.  Regardless of your decision, I hope that you will share in my excitement.

Thanks!

Your name—SIGN each letter; don’t photocopy your signature.
