May's Sister to Sister class is making marble magnets

Two-and-a-half months ago, the ladies at Metro came together for the first Sister to Sister class bringing women together and supporting the Women's Vocational Program in Ghana.  So far we've upcycled tee shirts, made candy dishes, and on Tuesday May 22 at 7pm we'll come together again and make marble magnets! 

There is no cost, but you will have to bring some glass marbles-the kind with the flat bottom that you can get at the dollar store, magnets, and we'll need donations of scrapbook paper (can be leftover scraps) and old magazines! For a better idea of this craft, check out Running With Glitter's blog post.

Also, we ask that each person donate $5 to the Ghanna Women's Vocational Training program so women who otherwise couldn't support their family can learn a craft or trade and never go hungry again.

This class is open to women of the public from any walk of life.  Plan on good conversation, great ladies, and a fun way to make birthday gifts for everyone you know this year!  

Bring a friend :-)

  1. I love those! We made them in our MOPS group a year or so ago. Love them! What a great cause! Praying the Lord helps you raise lots of funds for such a beautiful cause!

    1. Thank you Mary. The gal who started this vocational training has been a teacher at the Village of Hope for many years, and her passion for helping people is contagious. We are blessed to be a part of it.-Sunshine
