Peru

So I am raising support for a mission trip to PERU!  I am so excited about it!  I am doing all kinds of fundraisers with my church here in Eugene.  We are having a huge auction on December 3rd and we're hoping to raise enough support for all of us going.  So let me know if you want to donate anything to the auction!  


It is a 2 week trip to Cusco, Peru with extreme nazarene.  We will be doing a lot on this project.  It is an official Jesus film project, we will be building a chapel, and it's a medical mission trip!  i'm excited about the medical part.  i've never witnessed healthcare in an underprivileged area.


one of the ways we're raising support is by selling pastries at our cafe on sunday mornings.  so i made some pumpkin whoopie pies.  they are a recipe from my mother-in-law.  they are soooo yummy.  and not hard to make.  

yummm.
