Threads of Hope Belize

Monday morning! 
A beautiful sunrise!  
Time to start the first day of classes.

 Preparation for lunch 10 PBJ sandwiches, an American delicacy....... YUM! It's a favorite in Los Tambos. We were suppose to have six for class but 10 showed up. Good think I made 10 sandwiches.

 Our morning started with no electricity at the school and 3 broken machines. That was ok because In His Will ministries donated four totes of fabric and sewing supplies and we took the opportunity to go through                                                                    everything and organize it.       

Mrs. Ramos and Mrs. Irma are hard at work sorting buttons and threads.
We have a good cross section of supplies now.

Flory Goday brought the newest and youngest member of our group. Her two month old daughter didn't really care about all the excitement around her.........just sleep.

Lunch and organizing is over so now is the time for shopping. Shopping certainly is a universal language.
Rose is trying on new Easter bonnets.This one looks like a great choice. We are all a little giddy getting to shop at Farmer's Trading for fabric. Whoo hoo!

Farmer's Trading doesn't have as much fabric as what you would find at JoAnn's
but it has enough to make the decision difficult.

Pow Wow on who is getting what fabric.
This is a unique experience for the ladies.
Their sewing fabrics usually come from leftovers and scraps that someone didn't want. Food comes before spending money on fabrics. What a privilege to be able to share this experience with them. 

I think everyone looks tired, ready to head back to Los Tambos. 

Great day! and a busy one. 

We are SO blessed!
