Kampala Uganda

Since things have been so crazy busy here, I had actually already decided to not to the  Homeland Community Bank Show this year. I need a little break. I know I haven't sewn much at all this year, but I do believe its been good for me.

I will be starting a little sewing soon. For a wonderful cause: Jacob wants to go on a mission trip to Uganda next summer. Some wonderful friends of ours actually live in Uganda and run a Christian organization that helps others... those that are sick, poor and lacking clothing, food & shelter... those without parents to care for them and teach them the word of God.

I have some beautiful beads for sale... these beads are made by the children and ladies there to help pay for their needs. These are $20.00 a strand if you are interested and you can contact me through my email: jennifer@thetrendyspot.com These necklaces do not benefit me in any way: 100% goes to Uganda.
These bead strands are different sizes and are perfect for layering with more beads or doubling up to create a multi strand look... Lots of beautiful colors. Some are hand made beads and some are seeds from their area...

If your heart says you can do more, you can sponsor a child... they are so precious and are given the word of God and shown love and compassion when they may not ever see it without your help. If you need more information on sponsoring a child, you can contact me at jennifer@thetrendyspot.com and I will be happy to direct you to  more information.


If you are unable to help with money, prayers are also needed. When we pray for them, please remember their country has been torn apart by the AIDS epidemic and many of these children have no one. Please pray from them and their needs...
