Mabel


This is Mabel, a dear friend of mine. As you might guess, she is Ghanaian. She is from Accra and has chosen to live in Lawra to help women in the north become financially self sufficient. She sews beautifully and teaches women how to make simple things so they can earn some money. The women who come to learn have very little and can barely afford the necessities they need to sew. Mabel's non profit organization is called Bridge Female Missions. She incorporates faith with skills training in order to help women improve their living conditions and make life easier for women in the poverty stricken areas of Ghana.



Mabel says she is a social worker, but I believe she is much more than that. She is a person who lives her faith, who believes in God and trusts Christ and is lead by the Holy Spirit. Her house in Accra is available to rent. She is praying that someone will rent it so she can stay in this area for two more years. She says that there is still much work for her to do. I know I want to see this dear sister stay in Lawra. I pray that God will hear her prayer and answer so she can continue her work in the Upper West Region.
