Illinois—The Rushville Fellowship members held their "2nd Annual Taste of Vegetarian" on March 29 from 2:30 to 5:00 p.m. Their purpose was to give people a tasty introduction to vegan and vegetarian food, and to encourage the community to adopt a healthier lifestyle.

There was something for everyone to do, from preparing the food to setting up tables and decorating. During the event there were four servers, and others enjoyed taking pictures and visiting with guests. More than 40 people attended, and it was especially exciting for members to see some people attend whom they had invited.

Drawings were held for cookbook giveaways as well. One lady who won a cookbook recently said that she has been using the recipes and really likes them. Several in attendance showed an interest in a range of topics from cooking schools to Bible studies.

Rushville Fellowship members believe the "Taste of Vegetarian" events and cooking schools held provide great opportunities to also reach individuals for Jesus. They are confident that many contacts made through these events may not have been reached any other way.
