Guatemala: Sacred Stitches
The women and children in Guatemala were most grateful to receive your many gifts that were recently delivered by a delegation from Delaware.
The women loved the beautiful baby caps and blankets that were made by members of Sacred Stitches, and the prayer bracelets that that were made by the Circles of Love. Many thanks to Susan and Regina for organizing these wonderful projects.
And because of YOU and your generosity, many young women received sewing scholarships which will change their lives now and in years to come.
With Gratitude & Blessings,
Anne Finch
