Pasters Peter and Alex
The crowd was ALL smiles in the sunshine yesterday (April 7th, 2013) for the official groundbreaking ceremony for two new cottages at MCHF. After a few words from Gillian Willis and Drury Stith, Paster Alex Joyner gave a blessing and everyone in reach of a shovel got the project off to a good start.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The children present were very enthusiastic and  took their shoveling duties seriously.
