<p>There are people attending Odyssey who will help with ideas and with assisting at the fellowship tables.  What we need are more hands and more creative minds!</p>
<p>If you think you might be interested, <a title="*Contact Jan Bushey" href="http://hopewellreformedchurch.org/contact-jan-bushey/">please contact us</a>.  Odyssey has been a fantastic success and we all want it to continue to grow, both numerically and spiritually as we work with our friends to know and understand God more! &#8212; <em>Jan Bushey</em></p>
