Blessed Are You January 29, 2019 Blessed Are You Scripture Reading — Matthew 5:1-12 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. — Matthew 5:6 If you have ever read The Hobbit or The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien, you will know that Hobbits like to eat. They have breakfast, of course, but they also have second breakfast, then elevenses, luncheon, afternoon tea, dinner, supper, and maybe a nighttime snack. They have “an appetite.” We have often used this phrase to describe our teenagers and grandchildren. I sometimes won­­der if the floor by our refrigerator will wear out first because of the foot traffic in front of it. I have also been in countries where hunger is a daily problem. I have seen moms desperate to feed their children and willing to feed them mud cookies when there is nothing else. We all have a hunger for food to satisfy the grumblings in our stomachs. When Jesus sat on a hillside and began teaching the crowds around him, the people were not physically hungry, so he could focus on their spiritual hunger. He wanted them to know that if they were hungry for God, there would be plenty to fill their souls. He wanted them to know that if they would change their thinking and search after God, the righteousness and peace (shalom) of God would fill their hearts. How hungry are we for the things that God wants to fill us with? Prayer Dear God, please make us hungry for you. Teach us and fill us with your truth and love and grace. Teach us to pray and experience your feeding and your filling. In Jesus, Amen.

  • Open Gold Duke of Edinburgh Expeditions 2021
    OPEN GOLD DUKE OF EDINBURGH EXPEDITIONS 2021 Guidance for a successful expedition Planning your meals for the expedition is key. Food is so important in keeping our bodies fueled to complete the activity, but also in lifting our spirits! Getting the right food will help you enjoy the expedition and set you up to succeed. Here our some of our hints and tips to help you. FOOD AND NUTRITION One very important consideration when sourcing food for an expedition is weight: the more miles you've carried something too heavy, the more you will wish you'd looked for a lightweight version! Dried food weighs much less, because you are not carrying the water, and is generally the best choice for hot meals. Here are our suggestions of good and bad things to bring. Breakfast How you start the day is crucial. It may be tempting to not bother with breakfast, but you will regret it after an hour or two! Taking the time to have breakfast will boost your energy stores. • Instant Porridge - Mix oats, powdered milk and sugar in a freezer bag. Add water and cook whilst stirring until everything goes thick. You could also use a pre-prepared sachet of instant oats but these do not contain powdered milk. • Cereal - Choose the highest calorie per 100g cereal you can find. Mix 50g cereal and 50g powdered milk in a sealable bag. To eat, pour cold water over and stir. • Cereal bars - Not terribly satisfying but some people like to get away early in the morning without cooking/washing up so cereal bars might just about suffice.

  • Carlisle School District School Meal Charges
    Carlisle School District School Meal Charges The Carlisle School District recognizes that healthy, nutritious meals are an important component to student readiness and ability to learn. The Carlisle School District will provide nutritious and well balanced meals in its school meal program. By statute, the district’s Food and Nutritional Services department is a self-supporting fund that shall not have a negative balance at the close of the fiscal year. Unpaid charges place a financial strain on the Food and Nutritional Services department and on the district’s operating budget. To be fair and equitable and in order to ensure compliance of all who participate in the school meal program, the policy establishes procedure for methods of payment, charge availability and collection methods. Parent(s)/guardian(s) will strongly be encouraged to register for a free account on the school meal online payment center, EZSchoolpay.com, which gives access to parents/guardians to: ✓ View student transaction history ✓ Request e-mail alerts to low balances ✓ Make payments and pre-payments to a student’s account The Child Nutrition Director will send home at the beginning of the school year how to access the on-line payment website. There will be a minimal fee ($2.00) for using the online payment center, but parents do not have to use this to pay on accounts. We will accept cash or checks at either campus in the cafeteria, high school and elementary offices as well as the Superintendent’s office. Students with Free Meal Status • The federal school lunch program allows an eligible student to receive one free school lunch and breakfast every day.

  • Comparison of Soviet and U.S. Space Food and Nutrition Programs
    https://ntrs.nasa.gov/search.jsp?R=19890010688 2020-03-20T03:49:23+00:00Z COMPARISON OF SOVIET AND U.S. SPACE FOOD AND NUTRITION PROGRAMS Final Report NASNASEE Summer Faculty Fellowship Program-1988 Johnson Space Center Prepared by: Selina Ahmed, Ph.D. Academic Rank: Associate Professor University & Department: Texas Southern University Department of Home Economics Houston, TX 77004 NASNJSC Directorate: Space & Life Sciences Division: Man-Systems Division Branch: Flight Systems Branch JSC Colleague: Charles T. Bourland, Ph.D. Date: Augusit 22,1988 Contract Number: NCT4rbOOl-800 1-1 ABSTRACT This report compares the Soviet Space Food and Nutrition programs with those of the US. The Soviets established the first Space Food programs in 1961, when one of the Soviet Cosmonauts experienced eating in zero gravity. A Soviet scientist recently developed "trophology" - the study of living systems which includes assimilation of nutrients. Trophology is expected to permit nutritional advances beyond the "Balanced Diet" concept of satisfying ongoing metabolic needs. The concept expands and enriches the old con- cepts with the new findings in space nutrition. The Soviet scientists have conducted a number of studies regarding the concepts of nutrition assimila- tion and increased nutritional needs in long duration missions. US. Space Food and Nutrition programs have been developed over the past twenty-five years. From the early days of Mercury and Gemini to future Space Station requirements, the US. Space Food and Nutrition programs have progressively improved. This study indicates that some major differences exist between the two space food and nutrition programs regarding dietary habits. The major differences are in recommended nutrient intake and dietary patterns between the cosmonauts and astronauts.

This memorandum and its attachment supersede SP-39-2014, 2014 Edition of Questions and Answers for the National School Lunch Program’s Seamless Summer Option, April 21, 2014. The SSO offers school food authorities (SFA) an alternative option to SFSP, with streamlined administrative requirements. Guidance and clarification on all summer meal options available to schools is provided through SP 07-2013, SFSP 04-2013, Summer Feeding Options for School Food Authorities Revised, November 23, 2012, available at http://www.fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/SP07_SFSP04-2013.pdf. Increasing access to the Food and Nutrition Service’s (FNS) Summer Meal Programs, including the SSO and the SFSP, is an important FNS priority. FNS has developed new resources for use by State agencies administering, as well as organizations participating in, these programs. Summer Meal Programs rely on innovative and collaborative efforts to reach children in need. The “Summer Meals Toolkit” is designed for individuals and organizations interested in serving as summer meal champions in their communities at any level of program administration. It is a valuable resource for partner organizations on how they can best support and participate in the Summer Meal Programs.
