AHS Looking for Willing Families to Host NET Members

Happy Friday!

It’s that time of year again, the class retreats are a little under a month away.

I know most have not been making plans past the immediate future, but if you happen to be thinking ahead, please consider asking your family if they are willing to be a HOST family for the NET team that will be here the first week of May. NET stands for the National Evangelical Team, which consists of college students ages 19-24 that are taking a year off school to spread their love and knowledge for Christ.

If your family has done this in the past, or you think it is something they are interested in, please don’t hesitate to show them this email!!!

I am currently looking for willing families to host two or more NET members on the following dates:

May 3rd (pick-up from Assumption High School in the evening , provide dinner and lodging.)

May 4th retreat day for AHS senior students (Host family will drop-off in AM, provide dinner and lodging in evening)

May 5th retreat day for AHS sophomore students  ( Host family will drop-off in AM, provide dinner and lodging in evening)

May 6th retreat day for AHS freshmen students (Host family will drop-off in AM)

For more information, please do not hesitate to ask! natalie.imborek@assumptionhigh.org

Typically, I request that host families provide a bed for each member they are hosting. I am available to get team members back to your house in the afternoon, if you can drop them off at AHS the mornings of the retreats.

Thank you!
