Evelyne
Evelyne is a single mama to two girls
and has been truly blessed through compassion international!
They are the only ones in the community who are ALWAYS in school
because of compassion sponsorship program!!
It was really neat to see her run into her house and bring out a stack of letters and photos of her daughters sponsors from Canada!!
It was awesome to see the other end of how grateful the families truly are!!
Washing Laundry :)
Liliane
Liliane is a 23 year old mama to Shema!
During the process of teaching these women to crochet
we also go an opportunity to share Christ with them.
We got to share our testimonies and share how our God is a redeeming God
and He is just waiting for His kids to turn back and run toward him!
Liliane had been dropping Shema,
who is three,
off at church every Sunday
but didn't go in herself
because of the guilt she felt for her actions.
Through the course of being there and sharing
she rededicated her life to Christ and is now going to church with Shema!!

Alice
Alice is a quick learner I taught her how to crochet the only way I knew
and then she learned another way from a friend
so hers look a bit different but they are equally beautiful!!
Hers tend to be more kids or teenagers sizes!!!
Jeannette
Jeannette is a mama of five children,
she is the only one living in this community that has a husband.
Her husband tends to play the Dad role for the twenty other kids in the community!!
Jeannette was by far the quickest to pick up crocheting
she only needed to be shown once and she had it!
Some of her hats are kids and some are adults :)
As you can see she was also most often seen with her youngest on her back!!
