Meet Christine


My name is Christine a national of Uganda, Africa. Residing in Kampala, the capital city of Uganda. Uganda is located in the Eastern part of Africa bordered by South Sudan to the North, Kenya to the East, Tanzania to the South and Democratic Republic of Congo to the West.
Early in the  year 2014, I had a wonderful opportunity to be part of ‘A Sewing Skills Training Class’ taught by a sister missionary.  The class was held for 2 months with the help of a donation of Sewing Machines and several fabrics from the Young Women of Roosevelt, Utah, USA. The new skills that I obtained from this Sewing Class rekindled my desire to restart my handmade items’ project that had stalled for 2 years.  I then became actively engaged in making handmade items such as Beaded Bags, Aprons, African Cloth Bags, Paper and Bead Necklaces, Clutch Purses, Place mats (table runners), Linen Napkins.
The making of handmade items with an African touch has always been one of my greatest desires. I am married to a wonderful husband, and we have a loving baby boy who is 16 months old. The making of these handmade items has brought us even closer as a family since my husband is always willing to help me in making of several of the items and the income realized from the sale of the handmade items greatly helps to supplement our young family’s income.
Dear readers am also proud to let you know that I and my family are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints  and would like to leave with you my humble testimony that,  I know that God lives and that Jesus Christ is his beloved Son.
Best Wishes

Christine
