Second Day at the Mission Site, June 23rd











This was a big day for the members of our mission team who are part of the quilting project. The donations for this project was used to purchase sewing machines and supplies in order to create employment for some of the village women. Our mission team taught and trained the women in quilting and also, in organizing and managing a business. The entire week was spent in training and teaching the women. Also, donations went towards the construction of a community building where the women will store the sewing machines and work. The building will also be used for community events, etc. One of our mission projects was to finish the building with construction and painting, but it wasn't in the finishing stages while we were there.
