Glenn Beck: “Unstoppable ‘Economic Collapse’ is imminent. The world has no engine of growth. Most of the G20 countries have reached a stalled growth and the only engine of growth in the United States is the stimulus package . The bankers have finally gotten their day. They have removed all competitors to their fiat currencies that surround the world. As the US prints more, so will other countries. Other countries are forced to devalue their currencies in order to compete with our cheap currency, goods, and services. It’s a race to the bottom. Eventually, all currencies will be merged into one world currency. This is the central bankers goal, but it will be a very difficult one to achieve, to say the least. Start buying gold and silver. When the crash comes, those who live in big cities…GET OUT!! You don’t want to be in the middle of riots where people killing each other over rations.”

Helping hands come in all shapes and sizes.

Elkhart County’s community gardens bring people together of all ages and from every walk of life. You DON’T have to be an experienced gardener to be of assistance. One woman who picked beans last night told me that she had never before picked a bean in her life. But, she said she likes how working in the garden makes her feel. “This feeds people here in our community,” she explains. “We can get a little sweaty and dirty for someone else. Giving back is a good thing.”

Despite this summer’s earlier drought, I do not think it possible for the bean crop to have been MORE prolific. I have NEVER seen bean bushes so laden.

As the economic recession keeps demand at food banks running high, the “big need” and “big hearts” keep “Seed to Feed” volunteers motivated.

Hi, it’s me. I cheated and brought a garden cart to wheel around on.

Get involved! We believe God will continue to bring people and resources together to produce a harvest of vegetables as well as fruit in the lives of those giving and receiving.

Wow! Look at the results. According to Dave Hochstetler, Seed to Feed Coordinator, yesterday volunteers picked 210 pounds of beans and 94 pounds of cucumbers and tomatoes. All from the Goshen farm!

These tomatoes will be SO appreciated by Church Community Service’s food pantry clients!

‘Seed to Feed’s’ coordinator, Dave Hochstetler, says that the vegetables are coming in so plentifully that “Seed to Feed” needs 30 pickers each time: Mondays at 9 a.m., Tuesdays at 7 p.m. Tell your churches, tell your clubs, tell your families. Great group project. Call Dave for details: 574-349-4905 or dhhooch@aol.com .

Brenneman Memorial Missionary Church is helping students in kindergarten through fifth grades get ready for school by giving away 1,000 backpacks, 500 pairs of gym shoes, free hair cuts and more at the first Back to School Goshen Aug. 4.

Brenneman Memorial Missionary Church, 61115 Ind. 15, Goshen, is hosting the event for Goshen-area school children from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on a first-come, first-served basis.

“Everything is free while supplies last,” said Director of Worship Kelli Armentrout.

Along with the gym shoes, canvas-style backpacks and school supplies giveaway, the day will include free lunch for all attendees, basic hair cuts, a car wash with fluid and tire checks, child safety seat inspections, a dental education booth with free dental supplies and a mini social services fair. There will also be a bouncey house to play in and drawings for gift cards throughout the day.

The shoes, backpacks, haircuts and dental station are only for children in grades K -5, Armentrout said. But younger children will be able to use the bouncey house and lunch is available to everyone.
