Beautiful Bowls


These bowls are the beautiful creations of two of these ladies from church- Teresa, and Silesay. More ladies from church have made bowls too, but they did not come to the ladies Bible study this week...however three guests did!! And two of the guests accepted Christ!!! WOW Isn't that marvelous!! They both live very close to the church plot, and one of them is a woman I visited when the team was here a few weeks ago. Praise God for His goodness!!! The ladies who accepted Jesus are the ones holding children- Mrs. Moses on the left and Mrs. Joseph on the right (photo below.)
These bowls are part of a project the ladies started last week. They have come up with the idea and the supplies completely on their own (with the help of the Holy Spirit, as they will tell you.) They are using grass that has been wet down and wrapping strips of plastic bag tightly around the grass and then weaving them into bowls. At first I thought they would be trivets but that is only the base of the bowl. They add on one layer at a time until the bowl is complete. We are all praying that these bowls will provide a way for these women to help support their families in a way that honors God. Please pray they will have many buyers from the local market for their bowls!!! Please also pray God will be honored as they use their hands to support their families.
