2nd Annual Banana Bread Bake-Off

Hi Everyone,
This past week the staff women of B2B plus the three women who help with cooking and cleaning for the ministry, we all got together and baked, baked and baked some more. This was the second year for the Banana Bread baking but it was my first time and it was really a GREAT morning.



Here we are above after arriving at the ministry center with our aprons on and we're ready to go!!
We were each given a "station" and we all knew what had to be done.


We made 75 loaves of banana bread which we cooled, then put into colored plastic bags with a Christmas greeting stapled to each bag. Then we each were responsible to giving the loaves away to our neighbors, our guards and other Nigerian staff, to businesses we've used this past year, to Nigerian ministries we come alongside and to our pastors and other ministerial friends. We started at 9:30 a.m. and were finished delivering the bread by 5 that evening. Everyone who received a loaf were amazed and so appreciative. It is truly better "to give than to receive." We all had such a good time. It's beginning to feel more like Christmas!!
In-joy,
Eileen and Crist
