Apr 2016: Mt Zion CME Church in Hope, Arkansas hosted the Kids in the Kitchen event this past Summer 2015. Kids of the community came out to learn fundamental kitchen skills, focusing on measuring, mixing, following recipes, kitchen safety, healthy food choices, & even table etiquette. All food was provided free of charge.

Also, each child as well as the volunteers were given a certificate upon the completion of the class. On the last day of the program, members of Mt Zion provided a full course hot meal to all the kids who attended & graduated! They had a blast! 
This is a wonderful program idea for the upcoming summer of our children. Submitted by Mrs. Lynn White, CME liaison, Arkansas Region
