It is best to get a lot of people from within the congregation involved in the planning and building process in order to help build consensus and unity. People who are not involved in the process are much more likely to be unduly critical than those who had a part in the process. Said another way, people tend to throw water on other people’s ideas, but not their own. People in the church need to have ownership of the solution, and the best way to make this happen is to make them part of the process.

****VERY IMPORTANT**** BE SURE TO USE NONALUMINUM PAN!!!
Soak dried chiles in hot water in nonaluminum bowl for 1 hour.  Scrape
chiles to remove meat and seeds. Discard tough outer skins.  Saute onions
in hot oil until soft. Add garlic, chiles, Jalapenos, vinegar, cumin,
sugar, and salt. Chop and add tomatoes with liquid. Cover and simmer over
low heat to desired consistency...approximately 4 hours.
Notes: Ok, time for me to come out of woodwork.  I made this salsa over the
weekend, and it has been getting lots of praise.  I cannot take credit for
it though. The recipe was passed on to me about 2 years ago, and just tried
this past weekend. I don't remember if this was from a book or not, so I
shall credit it to the person who introduced it to me, Bud Brown.
