On July 6 - 10, 2009 the Wisconsin Conference Bishop Lee went to United Methodist Children's Services and Transitional Living Program in Milwaukee for a VIM work camp with the extended cabinet. This was led by Jeff Cupery and included 16 adults for 3 days of assistance at the facility. There were many varied tasks done and the agency is now more on the minds of those at the conference office. While housed at Kenwood UMC the group had devotions twice a day and for this group of pastors that proved to be eventful.
The summary of the trip is as follows - Money contributions to the hosts $1085; donated labor
$5950.; trip expenses $390.
Next summer the Bishops extended cabinet VIM trip is planned to the Bad River Reservation at Odanah which is near Ashland, Wisconsin. That will be September 20 - 27, 2010.
