Sewing Update

Sewing Business Update!

Hi everyone.

We wanted to give all out there an update on the sewing business in Sweet Home. While we were in South Africa many of our team members were able to meet with and work with the CHE’s and help with the business.

Jessica B. has a couple updates from the the ladies!

The sewing business ladies have had some trouble with the their sewing machines but have been working on getting them fixed. They have two machines from which two women know how to sew on and our helping teach they other ladies.

Currently they are making bags to sell to tourists and locals in the township and these bags are also getting sold in the Gift Shop at the Academy! [Many of our team purchased them :)] They want to continue to grow their sewing skills by learning how to sew clothes and tracksuits for the people in the township.

There many ways that you can pray for the sewing business

• That the machines will keep running properly and that the women are able to find ways to fix them when they break
• That they are able to keep learning and growing in their skills
• That the business keeps flourishing and they are able to help support themselves and others from it.

Thank you for your continued prayer for the people and students that we came into contact with. Please continue to pray for the new team as they are begining their training!
