A Woman on a Mission
Guest Artist: Coleen
http://vintageterrace2.blogspot.com/
Today I would like to introduce Coleen...and her story is so inspiring that I’d like to share it with you. Coleen is currently residing in the Ukraine with her husband Jeff. In 1994, they were sent there from the U.S. to serve as missionaries by the Baptist Missionary Association (BMA) and remain there today.
Jeff helps missionaries and pastors throughout the region set up churches. He was recently awarded an Honorary Doctorate degree for his valuable work there. Coleen has been showing women and children there how to make scrap books. She calls it “faith booking.” Here are some beautiful examples of the work they have done under her tutelage. So inspiring!
Coleen, thank you for sharing this and making us smile today!
Hugs,
Cindy

Good choice of pictures Cindy. They are so creative and only have sketch books for albums, but they make beautiful books anyway and we decorate the covers.
ReplyDeleteThis is great Cindy.
