See those pretty crocheted earrings in the above picture?  They were made by a lovely woman, displaced from her homeland and relocated to a town in the Southern United States.  I won’t share her name or specific details here, as I don’t know all the details and it’s not my story to tell at this time.  But I will tell you that these earrings mean a lot to me.  After receiving the earrings I begain reading about the woman and ministry from which they came.  I gave some thought to the opportunity to join in to further participate and have made a short term commitment to join the Fair Trade Friday monthly earring club.

Take a few minutes to check them out for yourself.  There are so many many ways to help out folks in this crazy, beautiful, broken world.  Maybe this way is the way for you.

 

with joy.
