The team from Colorado did many things during their stay in Uganda. One of these being teaching the house moms how to sew, a skill they need in order to be more effective in the villages.
Under the supervision of Bonnie Clark and Ricky Kereszturi, the moms learned how to repair/mend the children’s clothing when it tears or gets worn out. This is going to be very beneficial for our children as they often need minor repairs to their clothing. Not to mention our house moms will now be able to make the children’s school uniforms which will be helping cut down on cost for the ministry.
The house moms were very excited and eager to learn this new skill. They learned very quickly and produced garments within the first week. At the end of the second week we hosted a fashion show, so they could show off their creations. We believe this is something the moms can really enjoy doing as they continue learning new sewing projects.
With learning to sew under their belt, we feel as if this has helped in fulfilling their role as a house mom. It has also allowed them to put one more thing on their list of accomplishments. We are blessed to have them and we are excited to see all of their progress as they take on new projects.
The team also blessed the moms with bath robes. They wanted to show the house moms that they are appreciated and deserve this blessing. The moms were overwhelmed with the generosity from the Colorado team!
