Afternoon at the Ravine

In behind the Guest House is a ravine which is inhabited by quite a few people.  While I was here in June with the team we had joined a church service the last morning we were here.  We took this team back to the ravine this afternoon.  We had given money so that rice & chicken could be purchased and cooked ahead and then we showed up for a short meeting...actually a short church service.....talk about singing...oh my!  It was an opportunity for some of the team to bring greetings and they did a great job.  We fed quite a few people and it was a great opportunity to bring a shot of hope to these folks.  The pic below is of the food that was being cooked...


During the singing some of the team got right into it.  Here Marcel is doing the "Marshakka Mumbo"...


Mary Farrow is a serving machine!


Kelly and Fin had the assembly line going...


Once they got their food the children had to leave the building.  It was the only way to keep control.



We also chatted with the local pastor about whether "milk bag" mats would be of a benefit.  He was quite intrigued with the mat.  Once I explained what it could be used for...he kept it.  Thanks so much to Ruth McGauley and all those who helped put the mats together.
