Missions Dinner

September 10 we will be hosting a date night dinner at Mill Creek Baptist Church.

This event will help us share what has been going on at the
Bethlehem Farm in Nicaragua.

Back in Nicaragua Rigo has been busy with a couple of
groups coming over to help build buildings for the farm.

This dinner is to help with our support with the mission in Nicaragua.


In November, we will be returning to Nicaragua for 10 days.  Our goal
on this trip is to submerge ourselves in the Spanish language.
We want to be able to communicate with the people in their
language.
In July we sent Rigo home with corn seeds to plant.
His request to us was to come in November and help harvest the corn.
We are planning on teaching the people how to preserve the harvest.
How are we going to do this?  

We will bring lots of canning jars.


Plus a pressure canner.


  The people in Nicaragua have never eaten fresh corn.
So, this will be a new experience for them.  They also
do not know how to preserve the food.  With no refrigeration
canning the food will be a great skill for them to learn.

Donations are gladly accepted.
