A big thank you to everyone who supported our spaghetti feed yesterday by your attendance, donations, & donations or purchases of baked goods. We had a great turnout and it was a BIG success!
Also, thank you to all the volunteers who so graciously gave us their time to help with preparations, serving, & cleanup. We couldn't have done it without you.
And thank you to Cargill for their generous donation of the hamburger and the Barilla pasta company for donating the spaghetti and spaghetti sauce. Thank you to Barb Olson for her donation of the delicious bread sticks. Everyone's generosity is so appreciated!
Again, keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we once again journey to Nicaragua in February!

The Columbus Medical Mission Team is sponsoring a spaghetti feed along with a Christmas bake sale on Sunday, December 11th from 11:00 AM to 1:30 PM. It will be held at the Eagles at 3205 12th St. in Columbus. This is a fundraiser for our medical mission trip to Puerto Cabezas, Nicaragua, in February 2012. After church, bring your family for a tasty meal and also pick up some Christmas goodies for your holiday enjoyment! It will be a free will donation.
We would like to thank Cargill for their generous donation of the hamburger as well as the Barilla pasta company for their donation of the spaghetti and sauce for our fundraiser. Please show your support of these companies by purchasing their products.

Getting ready for Nicaragua 2012
The Columbus Mission Team is returning to Puerto Cabezas, Nicaragua in Feb. 2012 for a 13 day mission trip. The team consists of Dean & Carolyn Athey, Karl & Sue Tillinghast, Jody Dreifurst, Sherilyn Haswell, and Melissa Shemek. We are again partnering with the team from California that we have teamed up with the last two trips. Their team consists of a general surgeon, an ENT surgeon, an anesthesiologist, several nurses, children's ministry people and other support people. Suzie Smith from California and Keveta Andersen from Puerto Cabezas will once again be our work and spiritual leaders. We have begun to assemble our supplies. Although we do not have a surgeon on the Columbus team this year we are still taking a lot of supplies, medications etc. Our team and the team from California have developed a very close relationship with the staff @ the hospital we work @ in Nicaragua. We actually hire some of their staff to work with us while we are there. Since we take over one of the hospital wards and an operating room some of these people would otherwise be unemployed while we are there. We ask that you keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we prepare for our next mission. Thanks. Dean
