Guess what? It's time for This Moment See Beautiful. I know I normally show you a short video of all the ways I See Beautiful but this month I want to tell you a See Beautiful Story. See back in September/October my momma's kids (that's the youth at our church) did something beautiful. They saw on the See Beautiful blog a thingy about the "Fight to Live Woman" in Rwanda. These are 48 woman who came together to support one another because of the terrible things that has happened there. They all have kids and things were bleak and they not only worried about themselves but worried about the care and future of their children.
So these woman came together and bought a piece of land and wanted to start a coffee farm to ensure their survival but the hope for the future of their kids by providing a reliable income. And income that would provide their kids an education so that their future would be brighter and filled with hope. But these woman needed help in getting coffee trees to plant. That's where Kula Project came in to lend a hand. And through Kula project they could get help in buying 1,000 coffee trees which with hard work would provide them with a sustainable income. And that's where my momma's kids come in. The kids spend over a month raising awareness and money to send them so they could buy the trees. Momma's kid worked so hard and did all kinds of stuff to raise that awareness and money. The kids just fell in love with those 48 Fight to Live woman. Momma was so proud of her kids. And they raised a lot of green papers to help. Those green papers were sent to Kula Project along with beautiful hand made cards and posters the kids made to encourage these woman. And all that was hand delivered by Kula Project and by none other than Miss Lydia from See Beautiful. Momma's kids have not stopped there. They continue to pray for these woman and their children and they continue to raise awareness about their fight. Just last week momma received a very special gift from Kula Project and from these woman and here it is.
