We had a great turnout for our spaghetti feed & it was a huge success.  Thank you to everyone for your attendance, generous monetary donations, donated baked goods & supplies & especially all the workers who volunteered their time & talents to help us make it all possible.  We have been so blessed to have the support we have received year after year which makes it possible for us to continue with our mission trips to Nicaragua.  Please keep us in your prayers as we prepare for the team's 6th trip on Feb. 5th.  Carolyn

Spaghetti Feed & Bake Sale

It's that time of year again!  Global Passion Ministries-Nebraska is once again busy preparing for our 6th medical mission trip to Nicaragua from Feb. 5th-14th.  Team members are Tamra Boettcher, Sue & Karl Tillinghast and Dean & Carolyn Athey.  We will again be partnering with Global Passion Ministries-California.  A couple nurses from their team has already spent time in Puerto Cabezas & in the villages in the surrounding area seeing potential surgical patients for cleft lip and/or palate repairs. 


Our excitement is building as we prepare for our biggest fund raising event, our spaghetti feed & bake sale.  It will be held this Sunday, December 7th from 11:30-1:30 at First United Methodist Church, 2710 14th St. in Columbus.  The spaghetti & sauce were donated by the Barilla pasta company (who, in my opinion, make the BEST pasta) & we owe them a huge "Thank You". In addition to the bake sale, there will also be some Nicaraguan made items that we purchased in Nicaragua that we will be offering for sale.  Vi Bella jewelry will be on display & items may be purchased as well.  Vi Bella is a company that sells beautiful jewelry that is handmade by artisans in Haiti, Mexico & USA from recycled materials.  Tamra is a new distributor & is excited to be part of a company that provides jobs for the underprivileged as well as offering fund raising opportunities for groups such as ours.  Come & take a look and do some Christmas shopping.  The jewelry is gorgeous! 


Hope to see you Sunday!
