I have been invited to take part in "Everlasting Seeds of Hope" ...." a place where healing can happen through God's Word and His Grace". My part will be as a cook. :) :) My Grandma Logterman and my mom would be proud ---- they LOVED cooking and trying new recipes.
So on Mondays for 10 weeks (beginning Sept. 8) I will share my skills with 6 Lakota women who by the way have committed to following Christ. These women have many wounds (physical, emotional, mental). I hope to share the love of Christ with them - along with the love of cooking good food.
The foods that we will share will be simple, easy to do, inexpensive, but very tasty !! :) And then also - to share those extra tidbits of helpful kitchen skills that so many of us take for granted because we grew up in a home where those skills were used....and so we learned. These women grew up in dis-functional homes and so even the simplest things will be helpful for them.
And so - I would ask for your prayers for the Everlasting Seeds of Hope.......for us 4 cooks.....for the 5 leaders.....and for the clients. Also that perhaps there could be a couple of substitute cooks for those times when one of us can't make it. So here is a list of names ---- it's always nice to have a name to pray for.... Leaders....Wendy (also Founder), Etta, Delores, Chris-----and the Cooks..... Barb, Linda, Margaret, and Cathy.
We had our first meeting this morning and it was so good to meet other women who have their own Ministry on this Reservation. Linda and Cathy work with the United Methodist church and have an after school program for elementary kids in White River. Linda is the Pastor of the church. Margaret does a Wednesday evening Bible Study / Game night for kids in Mission. The Leaders that I listed are also very busy with many different Ministries. So I feel blessed to be a part of this new venture.
Thanks for the prayers!!!
