On Dec. 31, 2003, the books were
closed on the most successful Harvest of Talents for World Hunger
in its history. The 20th annual Harvest of Talents proceeds,
totaling $75,534.34, have been forwarded to International Disaster
Emergency Service to fund several feeding programs in various
parts of the world during the coming year.
In a year with a poor economic
climate, there were many who said it could not be done. Through
the grace of God and the contributions of many, from this and
other communities, the Harvest was able to claim a victory on
behalf of the world's hungry people.

With deep humility and grateful
hearts, we express our love and appreciation to each and every
individual and/or business that contributed to the success of this
ministry of hope.
Our 20th anniversary theme was
"Building Bridges of Hope." We plan to continue building those
bridges as plans are launched for the 21st annual Harvest of
Talents for World Hunger to be held on October 23, 2004.
Blessings!
Pat Snyder, on behalf of the
Harvest of Talents for World Hunger ministry team

LAMS concert fun
Send a link to a friend
My
wife and I visited our daughter in Lincoln the weekend of the
20th [of December]. She plays in the Lincoln Community Orchestra and we went to
the concert on Saturday night. We want to congratulate LAMS on the
professional presentation of this program. Most of all we want to
commend this community for supporting this group.
We had
more fun at this concert than [at] many of the concerts we attend here
at home because of the obvious fun the Lincoln participants were
having. One could tell from the joy on their faces that they
really loved what they were doing.
Congratulations on a great performance. You all "made" our
Christmas season.

A reader wondering about
Jesse
Merriman's roping mule
Send a link to a friend
Being an ex-rodeo participant, I am extremely interested in
Jesse
and his roping mule. How did they do at the National High School
Rodeo Finals in Farmington, N.M., last July? Please give me all the
information that you can on them. Especially on how they done at
the finals.
Thank you.
