On Saturday we had a sewing exposition. In the past I've found these events showing off our sewing projects to be quite boring, so this time we decided to try to do something more fun.
The girls prepared a dance routine to "Soy Soldado"- a merengue song about being a soldier for Jesus. They also did a little fashion show, which really got the crowd excited. I couldn't announce the models over the noise and realized I should have brought the megaphone.
Each girl got a certificate showing that she advanced to the next level. This week I began a new sewing class with ten new girls. A couple more also want to join! Pray that I'll be able to handle so many girls at once and that they will learn to cooperate with one another in the new class.

Very fun! I've been doing a little more sewing and mending recently! Valances for the kids' rooms, pillow cases dresses for the girls and shirts for me! Oh and replacing the zipper on a brandnew dress I got for free! I'm so glad these girls are so excited to learn something that they'll be able to use for themselves and even to earn some money.
