Awakened to a life changing vision:

    About 6 months ago an employee Katheryn May, introduced me to a Christian Mission Children's Home in Pereira Colombia, South America, that they have been involved with for close to 10 years.  At first I really just listened to their stories as I am not a person to get involved very quickly and can live in my own world quite happily.
     My own world involves running a bakery 4 day a week, 9 hours a day and spending part of 2 other days prepping for opening day, so I really don't have free time.  I have about 12 part-time employees. I enjoy the people I meet and the products we make.  My website is breadwagon.com if you care to take a peek.
   About a month before Christmas I started thinking how fun it would be to put together Christmas gift packs for the 60+ children at this children's home.  Many other people got involved and we were able to send 200# of gifts and supplies down with Katheryn May's family when they flew down for a work week.

   Since then we have raised enough money to put down a well (yet to be completed) and every month we send money to a grocery store for a food shipment.  So many people have gotten involved and there is a strong interest among our youth to support these children that were born in very unfortunate circumstances.

Most of them born to unwed mothers unable to care for them.
