What's Happening. Over the summer we
welcomed volunteers from north,
south, east, west; Wild Woman hosted her 8,000th
Farm volunteer; and, in August, we had a Farm
manager reunion. I hope you'll enjoy reading about these
and other recent
happenings over the
last three months! And, if you bookmark our Farm home
page, you can keep up with what's going on between
these e-newsletters by reading my Vanceburg
View. God bless you as you plunge into new
adventures
in education, ministry and mission this fall.
Joe Grosek, Glenmary
Volunteer Director
