Goats and sheep will be part of our efforts to produce food this coming year. Faith Home near San Pedro Sula, Honduras has begun a program to produce meat for the children's home by raising sheep. We have sent $250.00 which should purchase about 6 more ewes. The administration and house parents are doing a wonderful job gardening and now raising animals.





At Ti Paradis, Haiti, we will be cooperating with Living Waters of West Palm Beach to begin a goat herd improvement program. We will be purchasing three Boer Goats to cross breed into the local herd of Haitian goats. The Boer is a large meat goat and the Haitian is an example of survival under harsh conditions. The off-springs will have many of the traits of each parent. The three Boers will be 1 male and 2 females. Plans are to keep the Boers penned and thus control breeding. This will involve purchasing the goats, fencing materials, and food.
