Crusades, etc). ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !3 Mission Site Information Weather The weather in New Mexico is different across the varied terrain of the state. The northwestern area of the state is somewhat arid with a uniquely snowy winter to its elevation. Temperatures in this area range from 90’s in the summer months to 20’s in the winter. The spring and fall months are very nice with cooler temperatures in the morning and at night, and warmer 70’s during the daytime. The northern and eastern regions of the state have more extreme conditions due to the mountains and valleys that make up some of the most beautiful parts of the state. The southern portions of the state are more desert with more consistent weather patterns of rainy season and dry hot months. Cultures and History New Mexico boasts twenty-two Native American tribes. As a result of this high number of Indians populating the state, New Mexico has a unique history and heritage of family and family groups. In addition to a large Indian population New Mexico is home to the largest number of historically significant Hispanic settlements in the US. The vibrant Latin influence mingled with the deep American Indian heritage establishes New Mexico as our most colorful state in the US in language, art, food, and history. Location Our work is beginning in small Indian churches located on or near the Navajo Nation and smaller Pueblo Indian pueblos/reservations. The Navajo Nation is the largest reservation in the US with acreage larger than 10 of the 50 US states and a growing population of more than 250,000. Our Partnership is through the Baptist Convention of New Mexico association and churches scattered across the state from Albuquerque to Gallup and from Farmington to Taos. Religion The most prominent religion on the reservations is traditional indigenous cultural foundations with ancestor worship as well as Catholicism. There are only a few Christian churches on the Navajo reservation. There are no churches on Pueblo or Zuni land. Due to the Spanish colonization of the region Catholicism is present in most every community throughout New Mexico. There is a growing awareness among the Christ-followers in New Mexico of the need for evangelism and outreach in a relational manner. ! !4 Frequently Asked Questions Gallup, New Mexico ! !Is there a grocery store nearby? There are local grocery stores in Gallup and small stores in neighboring !communities. !Where’s the nearest Wal-mart? Wal-Marts are located in the larger communities (Gallup, Albuquerque, and !Grants) and typically will be within an hour’s drive. !Can I drink the water in New Mexico? !Yes, you can drink the water in New Mexico. !What’s the food like? In New Mexico, most cooking will be done as a team, usually on site in a local kitchen or church facility. The menu will be adjusted for project and time of year as needed.

Contact your service provider to make sure your phone will work in New Mexico. New Mexico is a mountainous state which can sometime interfere with !cell signal. !How do I prepare for the environment? The altitude at which you will be working in New Mexico will require the most adjustment. Use sunglasses, hats and chapstick daily.

Beginning 1-2 weeks out, increase water consumption to AT LEAST 64 ounces a day and !decrease caffeine consumption. !Is there a washer/dryer on the premises?

In addition, local laundry service is !available on occasion. ! !6 !Cost A non-refundable $200 group deposit is required for all groups to secure dates !and number of participants. This deposit is separate from the cost per person. The cost for each week-long trip to New Mexico is $350 per person. This price !includes lodging, food (20 meals), and daily devotion materials. !The deadline for payments is as follows: $100 deposit is due 90 days prior to trip $125 payment is due 60 days prior to trip !$125 payment is due 30 days prior to trip All payments should be sent to One Way Ministries at 105 Silver Leaf Lane, !Alabaster, AL 35007. !Cost Considerations Participants engaging in more than one week of ministry on the field will pay !$350 per week. Deposits are non-refundable. In addition, no refunds are given for monies due !and/or paid due to changes less than 60 days prior to the trip. !Children One Way Ministries welcomes families to the mission field. Due to safety concerns, only children ages 8 and over are allowed on trips. Children ages 8-11 must have a parent and/or legal guardian in a supervisory position on the trip as well. Consideration will be made on a per trip/per family basis for younger children when a family is planning to join a ministry team together. Children must be able to obey their parents the first time in order to be !considered. !Custom Trip Cost A custom trip is defined as a trip outside of the established schedule. This type of trip can be tailored to your group’s needs and schedule.

While One Way Ministries attempts to raise money from private sources including grants and individual donations, we encourage groups to sponsor projects as well. Any additional funds brought to the project by an organization will be designated for that particular project. We encourage each group to raise above and beyond their personal cost in order to make a more effective impact on the !people that they are ministering to during the trip. ! !8 Housing While in New Mexico, there is a variety of lodging used for groups. The housing ranges from primitive (sleeping on the floor in local churches or schools) to basic (sleeping bag on a bed in a retreat center) to hotel-type accommodations. Housing is dependent on the location. All participants will be informed of the housing/restroom accommodations prior to the trip. Food Breakfast will be served at the local lodging site. Generally, we will have a brown bag lunch with sandwich, chips, fruit and drink.

  • 2009 Annual Report EMB MOVE RAA REG ANNUAL.Pdf 1 8/18/09 11:43 AM
    2009 Annual Report EMB_MOVE_RAA_REG_ANNUAL.pdf 1 8/18/09 11:43 AM C M Y CM MY CY CMY K Report from the Chairman Rick Leach Dear RAA Members and Friends, 2009 has proven to be perhaps the most challenging year for the regional airline industry. Safety issues have been at the forefront, and as such, this year has stretched our bounds to make our industry even safer. The Regional Airline Association (RAA) plays a key role in the success of the industry. Over the past decade, the RAA has helped its 32 regional airlines form a seamless operation with their major partners, and the organization has played an integral role in our nation’s air system. Right now, more than 51 percent of daily flights are conducted by regional airlines, and we carry approximately one-quarter of our nation’s passengers. Without our service, 77 percent of US communities would cease to have any 2008-2009 air service at all. We have become a significant, and essential contributor to the airline industry and Board of Directors to the overall American economy. We employ some 60,000 professionals, and we greatly value their contribution to the regional airline industry. Chairman Scheduled passenger service has evolved to where regional and mainline airlines operate seamlessly to Rick Leach benefit the traveling public. The passenger buys one ticket and expects one level of service, so there can Trans States Holdings be only one industry safety standard. Vice Chairman Aviation safety, by its very nature, is a shared responsibility. I know all the regional airlines work closely Russell “Chip” Childs with other aviation stakeholders — our employees, our suppliers, other airlines and most importantly, SkyWest Airlines the FAA — to identify and inventory their best practices and share it collectively.

  • Annual Report Embraer LWYF 8,5X11in.Pdf 8/7/08 1:32:10 PM
    2008 Annual Report Embraer_LWYF_8,5x11in.pdf 8/7/08 1:32:10 PM C M Y CM MY CY CMY K Report from the Chairman Dear RAA Members and Friends, 2008 will be remembered as one of the most challenging periods in modern airline history. Crude oil has more than doubled in the past year, soaring past an all-time record price over $147 in July. When you consider that the price of oil has increased nearly 700 percent in less than seven years culminating with this year’s record smashing levels it is understandable why so many airlines around the world face uncertain times. Unfortunately, the crisis we are facing involves a battle on two fronts. Even as we are pressured on the cost side, the revenue environment in the airline industry continues to be a challenge. When you compare ticket prices from 2000 and the first half of 2008, domestic air fares have actually decreased. Yet fuel expenses burn through 40 percent of passenger revenues today, up from 15 percent in 2000. Twenty percent of the total cost of a $300 domestic one-stop ticket now goes toward government taxes and fees, up from 13 percent in 1992. Squeezed between expanding taxes and fees (now an $18 billion annual burden) and fuel prices, the revenue slice of the ticket-price pie is looking more and more like a sliver. The overriding issue for our economy, of course, is our country’s lack of a coherent energy policy and our chronic 2007-2008 inability to end our dependence on foreign oil.

  • Travel Media & Public Relations
    TRAVEL MEDIA & PUBLIC RELATIONS MARKETING OBJECTIVE Due to its affordability, authentic culture and heritage, one-of-a-kind cuisine, film tourism, outdoor recreational opportunities, and up-and-coming brewery scene, Albuquerque has increasingly become a place of interest for travel writers and travel professionals. By keeping Albuquerque top of mind with the media, ACVB is able to generate awareness, buzz, and positive coverage of the city and its unique offerings, thus resulting in an increase in both leisure and group tour travel, in addition to encouraging more conventions and meetings. National and international awareness of Albuquerque is vitally important, as media coverage of Albuquerque has been shown to have a significant impact on travel decisions.
