TBS Ride Sharing

November 1, 2023 by urjtbs • Community

Ride Share

Can’t drive at night?

You can still attend services or 

help someone who cannot drive.

What is Ride Sharing?

It is an arrangement in which drivers

who wish to offer rides and passengers 

who wish to obtain rides contact a 

central person who coordinates the 

sharing of individual automobile trips to 

religious services for the passengers.

Bert Devorsetz has agreed to coordinate this

 program.

Please RSVP to Bert if you are interested in participating:
