Food Fair Fun

April 10th, 2009

So, the other day my church had the food fair. This is basically where a bunch of people bring their best dishes and then people pay to come and sample all the different food. This helps raise money for the group of kids who are going to Costa Rica this summer. I happen to be one of those kids. :) It’s a very exciting trip, from what I’ve heard, and I can hardly wait to go this summer. We will be there for a total of 10 days and will be doing various activities during that time. One of the main things we do is put on a VBS for the little kids who live there. We will also be doing mini sermons and street preaching, or going door to door and telling people about God. The trip is kind of on the pricey side, so the food fair really helps to raise money for us. It’s our biggest fundraiser, and super important. It was also a lot of fun. After church, we had to set up about 20 tables with chairs going all along them, and then direct people and set up extension cords and lots of other stuff. It was a very busy and eventful afternoon, but was totally worth it and a ton of fun. I’ll be leaving for Costa Rica on July 9th, and won’t get back until the 17th. So, prayer would be greatly appreciated, as I prepare to go on the trip. Well, thats all for now. :)
