FEED MY STARVING CHILDREN 2016

In January we had the opportunity to serve with
Feed My Starving Children.


Feed My Starving Children® is a Christian non-profit organization
committed to feeding God’s children hungry in body and spirit.
The approach is simple: children and adults hand-pack meals
specifically formulated for malnourished children.  FMSC meals have
 reached nearly 70 countries around the world.



Mark and Gage filling the bags with rice, vitamins, veggies, and soy.


After the bag was filled, Cort would weigh the bag, and then
I would seal the bag with a heat sealer.

We had fun volunteering with our friends..
Cort and Michael


Gage and Kaylee

Keaton was a runner.  When we needed supplies he brought them to
us and when our boxes were full he stacked them on pallets.

This was a fun and easy way to serve as a family.

And with the food we pack, 309 kids will be fed for a year!!

CREEK BREAK

It's always nice to sneak away to the creek and
enjoy some quiet time.

Like swinging on the porch with your brother.



And FISHING!

Gage is ready!

And so is Keaton.

And for mom, it's nice to send the men off together while I relax!



It's good to be on the water.

And spending time together!
Love these guys!
