Just for Teens! Join us for an exciting and delicious progressive dinner! We will be enjoying appetizers at the Goff’s home in Aledo, salad/bread at the Thomas’s home in Willow Park, the main course at the Gentry’s home in Weatherford, and dessert at the Lero’s home, also in Weatherford. Ashlea Ranca and I will both be chauffeuring the teens for the evening. You may either meet us at the Lowe’s in Weatherford at 4:15 to drop your teen off to us, or you may drop off your teen at the Goff’s house for the first course at 4:30. Their address is 104 Langley Court, Aledo, TX 76008. Likewise, at the end of the evening, you may either pick up your teen from the Lero’s house, or we can meet you back at Lowe’s sometime around 8:15-8:30. This event is free, but a firm RSVP is necessary so that each host family will know how much food to prepare, and we will know how many need rides. Please comment below how many in your family will be attending the dinner, as well as your intentions of either dropping off/picking up at the host home or meeting at Lowe’s. Contact me with any questions, or if you’d like to volunteer ingredients/donations to help one of the host families…we are excited to fellowship house to house with PCCHE’s awesome teens!
