The IMC ministry held a ministry fair at the farm on November 28, 2011 in order to raise funds to help meet end of year expenses, which is always a challenge, primarily because, in Colombia, employees receive special bonus payments in December.
The Lord greatly blessed the fair this year, both through a large turnout - and by giving us truly lovely weather that day.

| The main attraction was a barbeque, featuring meat and all the trappings from a cow that had been raised at the farm |
 |
| The newly refurbished ping-pong table got a workout, as did the children's park |
 |
| Andres Castro helping manage the barbeque |
 |
| Alejandra Guzman selling fresh, organic vegetables from the greenhouse at Granja Peniel |
 |
| Also for sale were yogurt, cheese, and eggs produced at the farm |
 |
| Here the products from the workshop were offered for sale, including the house-shaped plaques, Christmas trees, and wooden cars |
 |
| Unfortunately, the only shop product that sold that day was one of the wooden cars. The other products were shipped to the UK for sale there. |
 |
| An auction was held for several items, including the rocking chair that we refurbished in the workshop, which sold for $80,000 pesos (about $44 US). |
