In the Bible Jesus talks about counting the cost before you go to war. (Luke 14:28) But, some wars are forced upon you. Did you ever begin to restore a vehicle or remodel a house out of necessity, thinking all it needed was some minor repairs and a coat of paint, only to discover it was totally shot? You find yourself over your head! You have too much invested to quit, but not enough money left to complete it? Well, welcome to our “Rice Mill”! What began with just the replacement of a few bucket elevators and a new shaker box has led to the discovery that everything was worn out. New parts, replaced last year with galvanized sheet metal, are worn paper thin by those little ‘grindstones’ called rice grains. What we thought was a $20,000US project is turning out to cost closer to $50,000US. But we must have our mill, as it is our only source of rice and we need to get it back into operation soon! So, we pray, and we ask you for help!
