Mission Work to Third World Countries Most years, the Mr. Peter & Dr. Diane Dickinson and their family take a mission trip to a third world country. This past year, their travels took them to Buriram Thailand. While there, they do agricultural education, Christian education, and Veterinary Medicine. (Dr. Diane is a licensed veterinarian). In an effort to assist these impoverished peoples, they purchase items from the people they work with, and sell them in the shop. 100% of the proceeds from these sales are returned directly to these people. Heart of the Shepherd Gift Shop ~ is a special part of Shepherd's Shop Though we're still small, the goal is to be an outlet for underprivileged people groups. Thai children craft jewelery to pay for their education; Thai "bar-girls" (exploited and oppressed) are crafting cards & purses to find a different occupation; Slum families of the Philippines create wallets and lunch-bags from colorful recycled food packages. Anything you buy in this category goes to bettering the lives of the destitute. Want to know more? Our Bible Garden is ready to be roamed! Over a hundred plants with tidbits on their histories and a pertinent Bible verse (often a direct reference) are waiting for discovery. Self-guided tours are available whenever Shepherd's Cross is open. Additionally, pre-scheduled guided tours are available with Master Gardener Wilma Thompson. "Grandma Wilma" as she is known, will give you a homespun version of God's majesty in the garden. The Tour Barn is nearly finished!
