Amani Ya Juu

At the very start of this business venture, God laid on my heart a specific purpose to which He wanted me to work for. A cause that could turn this talent that I was given into a greater purpose for His kingdom.

I always asked God, "Why would you give me such a strange talent? Something like fashion seems so vain sometimes. What in the world am I supposed to do with sewing that helps other people and doesn't lose it's purpose at patching holes in my kids clothes and fixing a button here and there?" Let me just tell you, I finally listened to God's answer and it hasn't left the "front burner" of my mind since.

http://www.amaniafrica.org/ is the website for the organization that I feel God wants me to get involved with. It is called Amani Ya Juu. Check it out.
