The Feeding Program was begun by Chester and Noelia Ritchie and serves the children of San Juan and Garage Villages. 40-50 children eat for free and another 25-30 pay .50 US cents per meal.
Sponsors for the Feeding Program are: Trinity Baptist Church Extended Hands International International Servants ClearView Baptist Church Riverside Baptist Church Fayetville Baptist Church Waldrop Church Ladies Group Rick and Judy Barnette David and Marcia McCabe Boyles Ministry
A Very Special Thanks to each Sponsor!
The program currently will seat 50 children and therefore the kids eat in shifts. Plans are underway now to expand the dinning area to seat up to 100 kids. This expansion should be complete by the 2008-09 School Year! View Photo Gallery for updated pictures.
Currently Tiffany manages the program and assists with the finances and buying of supplies for the program. We will be moving back to the states in August so our urgent prayer need is for God to raise up a local person to help manage the program. Mrs. Antonia Hernandez handles the day to day operation of the program but is not willing to manage the program. Please help us pray for a local manager for the feeding program. This program is such a great asset to this community and we want it to continue long into the future. Please pray!
