Graduation

Yesterday I had the privilege to witness and be part of the ladies from our Tailoring Course graduate. The course was the first of it’s kind and was a huge success. An 8 month course where 10 ladies from similar situations and backgrounds were given an opportunity of a lifetime, to learn a skill that they can then start there own businesses to provide for their children, free of charge. The course also included skills such as budgeting (which is a huge issue here, as people don’t think and plan ahead, which I guess is hard when you only have money and food to live from day to day) teaching them the word and promises of God and showing them the love of God. All 10 ladies were from the local community; single parents struggling to provide the basics for their family. 

To see the joy on their face at the graduation was amazing. Unfortunately I was unable to see the course from start to finish (as we have only been here for 10 weeks) but to hear the stories of transformation throughout the time that I have been here from when the ladies first began to now is amazing. Woman who were involved in witchcraft, now christians and attending church regularly. Isn’t it cool, how something so simple leads lives to Christ, for eternity!!!!!!!
