The majority of the members that made up the team were cow and crop farmers as were the members of the community and church in Lote 3. It was so cool to see their relationships strengthened as they talked over milk quality and production, soil and planting, as well as tank cleaning and sanitation. The also really wonderful part about this partnership between the church in River Falls, WI and Lote 3 is that it has been growing and continuing for over 10 years! That&#8217;s incredible and something that as Merge, we highly value and try to promote;\u00a0long term partnerships and relationships, mutual encouragement and learning together. It was a really beautiful week and we truly enjoyed being apart of such a lovely partnership! &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Love, Liz &nbsp; Report This Post","thumbnail_url":"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/resantana\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/132\/2018\/05\/28828721_1922871978043219_3190276849637952363_o.jpg"}
