INSTRUCTIONS

Cut chicken in pieces and simmer in 3 quarts water for a thin stew, or 2
quarts for a thick stew, until meat can easily be removed from bones, about
2-1/4    hours.
Add raw vegetables to broth and simmer, uncovered, until beans and
potatoes are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
Add chicken, boned and diced if desired, and the seasonings.
Note: If canned vegetables are used, include juices and reduce water to 2
quarts for a thin stew, 1 quart for a thick stew.  Serves 6-8.
Also note: Brunswick stew is one of those delectable things that benefit
from long, slow cooking. It is a rule in some tidewater homes never to eat
Brunswick Stew the same day it is made as its flavor improves if it is left
to stand overnight and reheated.

A Message from our Provider:

“Jesus holds the secret of answered prayer”

Kent and Barbara Hughes suggest the following to built family affection: 1. “The best possible foundation for building affection: love for God…We are able to love God and others through the reception of God’s love. Loving God is what makes other loves endure. This discipline, the day-to-day empowerment to live out this love for people who aren’t always “lovable,” is what fosters the ongoing growth of affection.” 2. “It is essential, then, if a family is to develop the bonds of affection, that the children have the assurance of their parents’ love for one another.” 3. “An obvious place to enhance family affection is at the dinner table. That is the single best daily opportunity families have for all gathering together…We encourage you never to surrender that choice time, for it is an unsurpassed opportunity to build family life.” 4. “Family vacations were at the heart of building the Hughes clan’s affections…we made disciplined investment in family vacations…Sometimes brief, spontaneous mini-vacations can (also) have important results in developing family unity and affection.” 5. “Mutual interests builds affection…Wise parents know this and look for a common interest or adopt their children’s interests as their own.” 6. “Families that learn to appreciate their points of uniqueness and to chuckle at their idiosyncrasies pull together in affection rather than apart in irritation.” 7. “The home is the place to be sentimental, corny, even weird for the sake of affection.” 8. “Wise parents who wish to enhance familial bonds will do their best to keep up the communication with grandparents and spent time with them if possible. Few things can be more elevating to family than loving affection extended across generations.” (Kent and Barbara Hughes).
