Elizabeth Gets Her Driver’s License
and a Car
Elizabeth came to Ohio
from Michigan in July.
Right away she took her
written driver’s test and got
her photo ID. She got a
job at Liqui-Box in Ash-
land, and began to drive
herself and Esther to work
every night as practice. A
few other friends also took her for practice driving. Her hard
work has paid off! She got her driver’s license on November
12th. Then the hunt for a car began, and she found and
bought one on November 27th. Elizabeth goes to GED
classes in the evenings. Congratulations, Elizabeth!
Meet Mary Troyer
The first thing I notice about Mary Troyer is
her shy smile. She has a friendly way about
her that makes me like her immediately. Mary
came to Ohio from her hometown of Eliza-
beth, Kentucky. She is currently working on
her GED and trying hard to find a job. She
already has her driver’s license and her social
security number.
Mary says she has had to start over, and that is not always easy,
as we all know. Her life has had its ups and downs but she has
found a precious gift: Jesus Christ. When Mary talks about
Jesus, her face lights up! In Him there is a strength and a peace
to start over. She is planning to be baptized soon.
Mary knows about the MAP ministry through her friend, Bar-
bara Gingerich. It was wonderful to hear how she is helping
out in the MAP office as much as she can. She is staying at Joe
and Esther Keim’s as she establishes her new life in Ohio.
Welcome to Ohio, Mary! And most importantly: welcome to
the family of God!
8 Sisters Bakery Opens in New Building!
8 Sisters Bakery opened in a new build-
ing on October 28, 2010. Here is a re-
port from Sarah Garber:
“The bakery is doing well! I would like
to say that Emma, the owner, was finally
able to quit her job of 6 years as supervi-
sor at Dutch Heritage bakery and is now
running her own bakery full time. We
are all thrilled about that. She will now
be pursuing a lot of wholesale business
as well as keeping our own shelves full
at the shop. It has been difficult to keep
the shelves loaded, and that was because
people bought it as soon as it was out!!
We are having a Grand Opening and
Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on Tuesday,
December 14th, and will be having
some specials the whole week. We have
already outgrown our baking area, but
will continue there as long as we can!”
The bakery is located at 29 South Main
Street, in Mt. Gilead, Ohio. It is open
from 6 AM to 5 PM, Monday through
Saturday.
For more information about 8 Sister’s
Bakery, or to place an order, you can

Congratulations 8 Sisters Bakery!
