We will be carpooling to the Interfaith Advocacy Day 
in Olympia . 

We will meet at the church ready for departure at 6:30 am on the 14th. 
This will allow us to arrive in plenty of 
time for check in, get oriented as to our schedule, and to grab coffee and finger 
food before sessions begin. Please notify Terry Eaton at (360) 896-4929 or john.and.terry@gmail.com so we will 
know how many vehicles we need to plan for, and to wait for you, if you are delayed .
