All Souls will host RITI for the second time this year on May 22-29. We expect 12 women to make their home with us beginning Sunday evening and finishing up the following Sunday morning. Lots of help is needed: two overnighters each night, preparers for dinner each evening, folks to have bag lunches delivered daily, and any other tasks you might wish to dream up. For example, small but useful gifts such as cards and postage, make-up and powder, fresh flowers for the table, and other welcoming signs are appreciated. The sign up sheet will be available on the porch each Sunday morning through the 22nd. Or call us at 254-5227 for more information.
If you have never participated in the hosting of RITI, we invite you to consider joining with others to host a meal or help in some other way As coordinators, we promise to support all of our volunteers and to be on hand to help each day of the hosting.
In addition, we need to replace some of our blankets (twin size) and some pillows (non-allergenic) which have seen better days. If you would like to assist by donating some gently-used items like these, please contact Susan/Mike Stevenson at 254-5227 or KNLSTV@gmail.com.
If you are unfamiliar with RITI or its parent organization Homeward Bound, we encourage you to go to http://hbofa.org and learn more about this valuable nonprofit in our community.
