Operation Grow Farmers and Makers Market on August 27, 2022

Brookfield Christian Reformed Church presents Operation Grow Farmers Market and Makers Market on Saturday, August 27, 2022, 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. The church is located at 14135 W. Burleigh Road, Brookfield, Wis.

The market, which is a fundraiser for Tesoros de Dios in Managua, Nicaragua, will feature fresh produce, popcorn stand, Sheboygan brats, Korean BBQ beef, jams, coffee & breakfast treats, woodworking, handmade jewelry and crafts, and more. It will be held in the church parking lot.

The church is raising funds to support Tesoros de Dios; Tesoros de Dios provides services for both physically and mentally handicapped children in Nicaragua, free of charge. Their staff provides physical and mental therapies to children with physical and mental handicaps and provides classes to parents to learn how to better parent a special needs child.

There are limited government services in Nicaragua for special needs children, so this is a great need being filled in the community. The church has supported the mission for many years, and this fundraiser is to specifically build a new classroom building.

Brookfield Christian Reformed Church traces its beginnings to 1939 and is celebrating its 83rd year in 2022. Head pastor is Peter Verhulst, and associate pastor is Young-Kwang Kim. Services are at 9:30 a.m. Sundays. Brookfield Christian School is loosely associated with the church.
