Threads of Hope Belize

Tuesday February 7, 2017

I don't think we could have fit anything else into the day! Whew!

Preschool in Unitedville In His Will.
This is what we did first thing in the morning! Sharing the love.  We handed out quilts that Joe's aunt and uncle made. We also had dresses and shorts that were made by Grandma's PJs. The children loved them! These wonderful people put a lot of work into their projects and it is our honor to get to deliver them. We also get all the hugs.

People think that Belize is warm all the time. The nights can get very cool during this time of year.


At the end I got the BEST group hug ever!

Here we are in Buena Vista. We are having the ribbon cutting for the Buena Vista sewing group.

Norma is the one with the scissors and her assistants are Ester on her left and Alba on the right.

This is a great group they are all so talented. God has given them gifts and they are willing to share with the community. 

The ribbon cutting party then back to work....................................

 We made 8 quilts and they were so proud! They never thought that they had the ability to accomplish such a project.  We have four Singer Heavy Duty machines thanks to the generosity of many people. There are no words to tell you  what this opportunity means to them. Please keep them in your prayers that they will  seek God's guidance  We hope to grow this group each year adding a few new students.  The girls have a list of projects to do over the next year which should keep them busy and on track. We have also come up with a list of goals.

Still Tuesday.............

Finished up in Buena Vista and back to the mission house to clean up the Jeep and pack. Wednesday morning we left for the airport at 7:30am, an uneventful trip home! Thank you Jesus!

 I am writing this post from my rocking chair in Knoxville.

As I said earlier there are no words to explain the blessings and joy we have had through the past three weeks. God is so good! We are honored to be the hands and feet of this work.

Thank you all so much for each and every donation and prayer for the Threads of Hope Ministry.
