In addition to being a devoted Christian mother, Marie is a talented and qualified seamstress. After studying and teaching sewing in the DRC she has turned her passion into a local business in South Africa. She runs this business from her Salt River home making beautifully crafted clothes. She has designed stunning women’s garments, furniture coverings, and bags. She also offers an alteration and repair service for clothing.
Her goal is to grow her business by increasing her customer base, and gaining sales into established stores. As well as establishing her as a business person, this will enable her to provide a university education for her children.
We are blessed to have her bags as part of our Joybags project. Marie shared that she made these bags with joyful love and can’t wait to see people with them.
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
