During dinner we did the traditional "What are you thankful for?" question around the table and the common theme in everyone's answer was being part of this Christ centered community which has been a blessing to staff workers, volunteers and Ecuadorians alike. Sitting at the dinner table with a magnificent feast in front of me I realized how our Creator and Sustainer really is wonderful and faithful even in the little things- such as celebrating an American holiday in Ecuador. Although I deeply missed my own family I was happy and felt so thankful to be a part of this new family in Christ who has taught and is continuing to teach me so much about myself, missions and God.
I made these- Pumpkin Scones :)
candles in the fireplace= a perfect touch of warmth
Here starts the photo tribute to my new favorite recipe:
the topping
fold the pie crust around yumminess
decorate with leaf cut outs or whatever else
bake and serve hot- enjoy!
tower of pumpkin deliciousness- muffins, bread and scones
