We sincerely want to thank everyone for your support of our mission team and upcoming (48 hours and counting) Ecuador trip. Whether it was/is through prayer, participation in fund-raisers, answers to the letter campaign or donations made to the many different events. We would not/could not be going now without it and you. You are as much a part of the team as those of us going to Ecuador. Please continue to pray for us as we travel and as we work with our brothers and sisters in Villaflora. That we might be a reflection of God's love and that we speak only the words God would want us to speak and follow and obey His will not out own!

We look forward to telling you all about it once we get home...how awesome it was and how we were each blessed during our time there! I know we will be blessed and humbled in ways we can only imagine!

Love from all of us to all of you!

Dinner and a Show with a silent auction thrown in!

Well...the dinner and a show has been set! It will be Saturday, May 12th from 5:00 p.m. until it's over! We will be serving a full sit down meal with soup and salad, an entree with vegetables and desert. Brent Orth's group (Ain't Dead Yet) will be playing and entertaining during dinner...they have a real gig that night at 8:00 so will be leaving early. After they are finished performing, we will have a wide range of people providing different types of entertainment, finishing out the night with a stand up comedy routine provided by none other than our own Joe Hobby!

The tickets are on sale for $15.00 per person or 2 for $25.00....considering the amount of food and entertainment...you just can't beat it! If you would like to purchase some tickets...any team member will be more than happy to get them to you. Also remember to bring your checkbooks...or lots of cash...for the silent auction/raffle! We hope to have many cool items up for grabs! We hope to see you there!

BTW...an unrelated (sort of) item of information...on Saturday, May 5th at the 2nd annual Clay May Days (9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.)...Faith UMC will have a booth set up and the mission team will be selling hand made items from the Sister-to-Sister program! We have jewelry, purses, back-packs, hats and several other miscellaneous items. Send everyone you know out to buy some very unique and beautiful items!

The Sister-to-Sister products and tickets to the Dinner and a Show would all make great Mother's Day gifts!!! Don't forget the women in your life...Sunday May 13th!
