Here is Nobubabalo, one of the ten beautiful ladies who received their sewing certificates from D. Alberta Mayberry, United States Consul General at our Saturday July 17 completion ceremony. The women looked stunning in the dresses they had designed and made and cries of joy and laughter filled the room as they received their certificates, bibles and yes, after six months of hard work, their sewing machines. Alberta was brilliant as she shared though poor, her mother made her feel like a princess at the prom with a dress she had sewn all through midnight. Later from her experience of sewing a dress for her mother's birthday, she also learned that what you sew you rip until you get it right. She urged them to excellence in what they do.
Social worker Buyiswa Oobo described her life from an attempted suicide when she was younger because of a mother that had abandoned her, to her life now, a university graduate with a Masters in Social work and a Social worker for World Vision. With God's help your dreams can come true she encouraged them. We all joined Rev.John Thomas as we prayed for their hopes for a better life and for some, a successful business to come true. It was a day to remember in this year, yes, one of the happiest of my life for Evangeline Ministries
