Eagle's Wings project lifts offOM InternationalLast May 2006 OM Uruguay’s board acted on much prayer to buy a 15 hectare (about 37 acre) farm for a Christian conference and training project called “Eagles’ Wings.” The farm has hundreds of fruit-bearing trees that yielded a good income for the year 2006/2007. Major land and building improvements are needed since the farm was not kept to its best state for the last 3 years, but production has improved through the free advice of a Christian agronomist. The first three accommodations for caretaker and staff are nearly completed. An existing structure is to be recycled as a bakery and fruit processing plant. As more funds become available, work will begin on a multi-purpose gymnasium with kitchen & dining room, conference facilities and camping area.This May at EXPOLIT, the Spanish language book and music exposition held in Miami, participants volunteered an offering of over US$8000 for the Eagles' Wings Center. Project Manager Siegfried Klassen said, “We are now working hard on getting the property ready to host its first TeenStreet in January. We believe the centre will also be used for pastor retreats, leadership conferences and all kinds of camps for the local churches in Uruguay. Please stand with us in prayer and if a church group you know would like to come and be part of a work project, contact
