Mrs. Mark Hatfield’s Warmth, Witness
Welcomed at Farm Women Convention
By Sally Bair
Feature Writer
Exuding warmth and
graciousness, Mrs. Mark 0.
Hatfield won the admiration of
Lancaster County’s Farm
Women on Saturday when she
spoke about the opportunities for
Christian witness through “Food
for Fellowship”.
Speaking to their 56th annual
convention at Lancaster Bible
College, Antoinette Kuzmanich
Hatfield, wife of the senior
senator from Oregon, said, “As
Christian women we have a faith,
hope and love that can carry us
through trials and tribulations.”
“But we aren’t always ready and
prepared to tell the story of
salvation, and that’s why I wrote
Food for Fellowship.” She added
that Food for Fellowship is a
“product of my commitment to
the Lord.”
In discussing her deep-seated
Mrs. Hatfield seemed to thrive on the opportunity to meet
and speak with the Farm Women. She signed endless copies
of her latest cookbook, "Help! My Child Won’t Eat Right".
Even Senator Hatfield was persuaded to come out of the
background and autograph a few cookbooks for admirers.

religious philosophy Mrs. Hat
field said, “God has given each of
us a unique talent and a unique
position” to use in His service.
“God gave me a particular talent
for cooking -1 come from a long
line of good cooks.” She credited
her grandmother, her father who
was a cook on a commercial
fishing boat, and her mother with
having taught her.
When her husband was
Oregon’s governor, she related,
she was provided with neither a
mansion nor a staff. “But the one
thing people always asked me for
was my recipes. They didn’t ask
my opinion on political issues,
because Mark kept me pregnant,
barefoot and in the kitchen ”
As a result of her talent for
cooking, Mrs. Hatfield wrote

already felt a warm bond with
Mrs. Hatfield having become
acquainted with her during a

book early in the year. The bond
and kinship deepened with Mrs.
Hatfield’s appearance Saturday.
Although her publishers had
suggested to her that she write a
book giving testimony of her
Christianity, she said she would
not because “I was a Christian
from the day I was born. They
thought I was going to die so they
baptized me. It was only in the
later years in my life that Christ
has been a personal friend.”
She said God talks to each
person in times of “joy and
happiness and in times of trial.
We may not always hear, but He
is always saying something to us.
People can disappoint us, but
Christ never will.”
“I believe as Christian women

others that we are his disciples

Explaining her reasons for
writing the book Food for
Fellowship, she said that
fellowship in the early church
was important for “sharing and
sustaining the members in their
common belief in Jesus Christ.”
She said sometimes she feels that
the church has become so for

Quoting from the forward to her
book she asked, “Are we really
helping one another grow
spiritually as individuals and as a
body of believers?”

salvation through Christ.” She
pointed out that Christ often used
meals to teach stories as the
Wedding Feast at Cana, the
Sermon on the Mount and the
Last Supper.
Mrs. Hatfield quoted further
from the book, “The early church
members needed to have
nourishment not only for the body
but more importantly for the
spirit. Although the band of
followers has grown through the
years, the idea of sustaining each
other seems to have diminished.
It is now time to renew our
commitment to our Lord and
Savior and to provide Food for
Fellowship for others who now
believe or who would believe.”
In conclusion she offered a bit
of her own “homespun
philosophy:” “Treat your family
like company and your company
like family and you will never
fail.”

and stayed quietly in the
background. Copies of her latest
cookbook were available and she
very graciously autographed the
books and talked with the farm
women at the conclusion of the
meeting. Senator Hatfield
