It's all coming together

The project is really starting to come together! We've secured the rooms, hired the teachers, and purchased the sewing machines. This past week we selected the students. There were 22 applicants for the sewing school. The applicants were required to take an entrance exam that our teachers prepared. Our first sewing program students will consist of three women and seven men. There is a need for tailors in Port-de-Paix, so we're excited to help train some new tailors for the area. When school stats, there will be an afternoon and morning school. The morning school will start at 7am, and the students will spend one hour learning the process, and two hours on the machines. We're excited to meet our new students! Photos to come!

We have the rooms!

I'm excited to announce that we've rented two rooms to house the sewing program in Northwest Haiti! Praise the Lord! This is a huge answer to our prayers. I can't wait to see them filled with sewing machines and students. If you're interested in helping cover the cost of the room rentals, please visit the donate page.

God is Faithful

I just received some exciting news this week from Diana. God has been faithful, and has answered our prayers about where to house the sewing program. He has provided us with two rooms in a building that will be perfect for this ministry. We've also found two sewing teachers for the program! Thank you Lord for your faithfulness! Deuteronomy 7:9 (NIV)

"Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments."

More details to come!
