July 2 Temple Trip
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Please feel free to share this invitation with anyone who might be interested in joining us for Temple Trips to the New York City/Manhattan Temple.
We are having another Temple Trip this Saturday
Saturday 2 July.
We will meet at the Newark Broad St. Station at 8:00 am, to catch the train at 8:16 am (arriving at Penn station about 8:36 am). That gives us time to purchase round-trip tickets.
We invite you to join us, and Brother Jones will be happy to pay the NYCity subway fare for anyone going with us to the temple, to and from Penn-Station. You may choose to do an endowment session, or some other service as you wish.
Sister Jones and I will be at the Newark LDS chapel on Orange St. at 7:50 am - so you may join us there. Or if you want a ride to Newark please call us at 801 735-5885, and we will see what we can do! Of course, if you are at our apartment at 111 Glenwood Ave, EO, at 7:30 am, we can give up to 3 people a ride to the Newark LDS chapel from there.
The LDS-Newark chapel parking lot is safe (we believe) and available for LDS parking. We will walk to the Newark Broad St. train station from there, about a 10 minute walk.
Each person should get round-trip tickets for this train ride to and from Penn Station. Don't worry about the subway - Elder Jones will lead you to the right spot and pay for entry to the subway once we arrive together at Penn Station.
We should return on the 1:11 pm train from Penn Station, arriving at Newark Broad St. at about 1:31 pm.
Subways go from Penn station to Lincoln Center (66th street in NYCity) about every 7 minutes, so they are not a problem really. Lincoln Center is just across the street from the Temple, an easy walk from the subway exit to the temple.
We hope you join us for some WONDERFUL trips to the Lord's Temple! If you have any questions - please send email (or text via phone) to either of us, or ask us at Church.
Our sincere LOVE to you all,
Elder and Sister Jones
PS - You all are also invited to attend our Scripture Study class each Wednesday evening at 6:30pm at our church on Fair Street. The class is being taught by Elder Jones and our topic is the Articles of Faith.

Temple Trips / Scripture Study
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Please feel free to share this invitation with anyone who might be interested in joining us for Temple Trips to the New York City/Manhattan Temple.
We are planning to attend the 11:00 am session on the following days;
Thursday 9 June 2016 (there is a baptism on Saturday following)
Thursday 16 June (there is a missionary activity on Saturday following)
Saturday 2 July.
(Further temple trips after that will be announced later.)
We invite you to join us, and Brother Jones will be happy to pay the NYCity subway fare for anyone going with us to the temple, to and from Penn-Station. You may choose to do an endowment session, or some other service as you wish.
For the Thursday trips, Sister Jones and I will be at the Newark LDS chapel on Orange St. at 8:55 am - so you may join us there. Or if you want a ride to Newark please call us at 801 735-5885, and we will see what we can do! Of course, if you are at our apartment at 111 Glenwood Ave, EO, at 8:30 am, we can gladly give you a ride to the Newark LDS chapel from there.
The LDS-Newark chapel parking lot is safe (we believe) and available for LDS parking. We will walk to the Newark Broad St. train station from there, about a 12 minute walk.
Then we will catch the NJ Transit train at 9:21 am which will arrive at Penn Station in NYCity at about 9:42. (Note that this same train leaves from the Brick Church Station in EOrange at 9:16 am, but the cost is LESS from the Newark station and the parking seems a lot better.)
Each person should get round-trip tickets for this train ride to and from Penn Station. Don't worry about the subway - Elder Jones will lead you to the right spot and pay for entry to the subway once we arrive together at Penn Station. If you are going to Penn Station earlier, please be sure to give us a phone call so we can make arrangements to meet up with you at Penn Station - it is a BIG place!
We should return on the 3:22pm train from Penn Station, arriving at Newark Broad St. at 3:39pm. Sometimes we can catch the earlier train at 2:35pm from Penn Station.
Subways go from Penn station to Lincoln Center (66th street in NYCity) about every 7 minutes, so they are not a problem really. Lincoln Center is just across the street from the Temple, an easy walk from the subway exit to the temple.
On Saturday, the departure from Newark Broad St. is at 9:16 am (arrives at Penn Station at 9:40) and return is at 2:11 pm or (more likely for us) at 3:11pm, arriving back in Newark at about 3:31pm.
We hope you join us for some WONDERFUL trips to the Lord's Temple! If you have any questions - please send email (or text via phone) to either of us, or ask us at Church.
Our sincere LOVE to you all,
Elder and Sister Jones
