SET Vegetables Put Vitamins on the Menu There are plum tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, beefsteak tomatoes and pear tomatoes. But, whatever variety you choose, one thing is for sure and that's the fact that tomatoes are. a rich source of Vitamins A and C. Other vegetables rich in Vitamin C include radishes and cucumbers. Vitamins B1 and B2, as well as Vitamin C are found in cauliflower, while carrots and escarole provide Vitamin A. When cooking with fresh vegetables, it makes sense to use other healthful ingredients like corn oil. It is made from corn and is cholesterol-free as well as being low in saturated fat. MARINATED TOMATOES 4 medium tomatoes, sliced % cup corn oil 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar 4 tablespoons chopped parsley 3 tablespoons sliced green onion Vt. teaspoon dried basfl leaves Arrange tomatoes in bottom of shallow dish. In small jar with tight fitting lid place corn oil, vinegar, parsley, onion and basil. Cover; shake well. Pour over tomatoes. Cover; refrigerate several hours, spooning herb mixture over tomatoes occasionally. Makes 4 servings. Church Youths Travel To Appalachian Area Twelve Senior high youth from Faith Presbyterian church in McHenry traveled to the Appalachians for an exciting mission trip. They stayed in Marian county, which is one of the poorest counties in the entire nation. While there, they did painting, worked with the elderly, and were of assistance to the people of that area. Those participating were Rick Tamraz, Phil and Donny Thennes, Cindy Lemcke, Maribeth Karas, Tim Shine, Jennifer Bor- chers, Dawn Williamson, Noel Hamilton, Geril Brandt, Colleen Taveirne and Mary Kay Mullen. The participants were very enthusiastic about the experience and it provided many valuable learnings. They were struck by the contrast by rich and poor in that area, enjoyed the rustic beauty of the mountains, and provided Christian service.

The leader of the group is a seminarian from Trinity seminary in Deerfield, Rick Tamraz. For more in­ formation about any of the youth groups, call the church office at 385-5388.
