Our time in Yaviza was fun! The guys and gals on the worksite were always wearing smiles. Laughter, singing, and even dancing was often witnessed on the job site. Even as those that came to the kitchen to serve, there were usually joking around and glad to share their recipes for Chef Panama! The outside visiting groups brought lots of encouragement to our brothers and sisters here on the church camp just with their presence. Of course the close time of fellowship and meal sharing were wonderful as well! Thank you to everyone, including our local Church members that came out to support the cause with their service!
Our time at our home has been fruitful! Literally! Alan and Santiago (Curtis Strauss) have worked on making a fruit dehydrator and drying some mangos! It has been successful and tasty! I now can’t make it through an entire day without eating mango! We are now testing out the market to see if this mango thing could be a way to support some of our ministry work here in the future! Go panamango!

Panamango – love it! We look forward to seeing y’allses in a few short weeks!
It looks like the mangos are very green. Are they still tasty after you dry them? My experience has been that they have to be firm, to be able to cut them, but more yellow on the inside (at least). All the best as you continue to experiment. I never get enough dried for my friends and family. Gudrun
We are so excited to see you guys in a few months…LORD bless you and your ministry.
Great news about the drying of mangoes, which was one of the ventures you were hoping to achieve. Will you be able to bring us a sample when you visit B.C.?
Thanks for sharing. Where is the house being built on the Yaviza property?
After visiting you and see your work I’m very happy for you all!!! Praying that the dry mango project flourish more and more…and I must try that mango one of these days! Love dry mango, tried it in Perú and South Africa and Mozambique!!! And I love the names our brother from Panamá call Curtis and Marshall…Santiago and Marcial eh!eh!eh!
Go Man-Go!
Hi Fosters! I’m praying that the Panamango business will have God’s favor stamped all over it!
