India team inaugurates newest widow's seamstress school


Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we have recently inaugurated our newest widow's seamstress business school in South India. Several new candidates have been registered and are now awaiting sponsorship before the course begins in August.


"A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling." -Psalm 68:5

Our seamstress business initiative is successfully empowering widows who are among the poorest of the poor in South Asia. Many widows in this part of the world are socially shunned and often pulled into the darkness of prostitution. But Peace Gospel is offering widows a way out of their poverty and despair. As we receive sponsorship funds from donors like you, widows are taken through a 4 month training program and then equipped with a sewing machine and basic supplies. This allows widows to start a practical in-demand, home-based business that provides for their family.

Take action:
[ sponsor a widow's seamstress business, or a share thereof ]
[ sponsors a widow's seamstress business in someone's honor ]
