Sewing School

We believe part of what we are called to do is to help establish a foundation for the women and children to build on. Offering a skill that will bring hope for the furture. Before you build, you must have tools both spiritually and physically.

In February 2006, we began shipping treadle sewing machines

to Haiti. These machines will provide an income to help those

enrolled in the women's program. We are working with John and Beth McHoul at Heartline Ministries. To date (10/01/07) we have shipped 35 tubs of fabric and 38 machines. We have established a micro-loan program to help the women purchase these machines.

Our next step will work to bring change to Haiti by focusing on the following:

1. Faith based health care, prenatal education, child development, nutrition and childbirth assistance

2. Vocational training such as sewing, nanny training, fish harvesting & bread baking.

3. Basic education skills giving them the tools to better

  financially support and care for their families

4. Training programs that provide an outlet for the women to sell their items
