Everything is in!

So many, many things to put in the totes but we made it.
EVERYTHING IS IN.
Five sewing machines and a lot of good sewing stuff as you
can see. Also the hand made pack packs, dresses and shorts made
 by the Grandma's PJ group. Lots of love going to Belize tomorrow.
Thank you everyone for your time, talents and supplies.

All God's children

 
We are so blessed! God has put some wonderful people in
our lives.  Some of them live in Belize and some
live in Tennessee!
Thank you all for the supplies and the funding of this
ministry.
 
We are looking forward to these sweet, smiling faces greeting us in Unitedville.
 
AND two of the lovely young ladies in Los Tambos
 
 
 
        We are excited to see the sewing group again. Working with the young ladies in the sewing group holds a very special meaning.  Two of the girls were just beginning school when we started going to Belize and the little guy in the background wasn't even born yet.
There is a lot of history there.


 
 

The Count Down begins

We were commissioned this morning at church.....................tomorrow evening we will be packing our 7 totes and Wednesday at 6:00am we will be heading to the airport. Our flight is at 8:30am, with a stop over in Atlanta we should arrive in Belize at 12:44pm.
Please keep us in your prayers as we prepare for our trip.

Unitedville - Learning Center
Embroidery and Beading Class
                             
                                     
                                                         They all loved the beads!!
                                          One of the problems we ran into is that a lot of
                                          the women need reading glasses. We were able to
                                          purchase several pairs. Next year I think we will take
                                          an assortment of drug store glasses.
                                       

 Last day of class........group picture. Very nice
 ladies and gentleman. We had a great time! Worship, fellowship
 and beading.
                                         

                                          Some of the ladies stopped by the Mission House to
                                          show us their finished work. They were all very proud
                                          of what they were able to accomplish.



                          
                                                 Althea Burtran and her group of friends will
                                                continue to meet once a week for prayer, fellowship
                                                and embroidery and beading.
