Sho Sho, so thankful for her gift!!! |
Girls With Vision...
Celebrating Christmas with absolute delight!
I've decided to tell the story with pictures.
Thankful for people all around the world who contributed to make this an amazing day!
At the end, are pictures of each lady as she received your gift - they each sent gratitude and blessings to your homes! (I have a few that I haven't been able give yet, as the ladies had traveled - will continue to add photos).

Each child received a bag - with some special treats of their own! |
|
|
Nothing more fun than packaging up delightful gifts! |
|
Cooking started early in the morning! |
|
Yes, I did help roll the chapati... not so round, but at least I provided some laughs! |
|
|
We almost canceled the bounce house when the budget got tight... but I'm so thankful we didn't! The kids jumped for hours! |
|
I LOVED watching their delight as they got to play on a bounce castle for the first time! |

Thrilled to have husbands... even some abusive ones... join us! |

This little girl's scowl makes me laugh! "Don't interrupt me!" |

My partner and forever friend, Pauline Njoki... EXHAUSTED but loving the joy this day brought to women we love! |

Sharing time! |

A drama that we had no idea was coming! |

Beautiful testimonies of God's faithfulness! |
