Exquisite Ornaments from Faith Harvest Helpers

Exquisite Ornaments from Faith Harvest Helpers
 
This one says Noel
This little pamphlet tells all about the person who made it!
When I was at the Holiday Craft Bazaar last weekend...
I took a stroll around to take a look at some of the other vendors to see
what they were selling...when I got to this one I was so surprised at
               how these exquisite ornaments were made...and then I heard who made
them and how they're helping to feed families I just had to share their story.
The sale of Mayan Bolas supports a vital Cottage Industry and helps Faith Harvest Helpers raise funds for their domestic and global outreach & relief programs. Each bola has the interview of the creator attached to the unique, handmade, colorful, glass beaded ornament. Bolas are sold throughout the year at a variety of Northwest fairs and bazaars, are consigned to various retailers, and can be consigned to organizations for fundraising. For more information on events and consignment please contact Cynthia Rankin via email: cynthia@faithharvesthelpers.org
or by phone (360)259-5586.


The Mayan Bola Cottage Ministry helps support families in Guatemala.
These exquisite works of art are hand-made by Mayans in the Lake Atitlan region.
Families are struggling to live 5000-7000 feet high in the volcanic,
Western Guatemalan Mountains, some in homes made of corn stalks.
Life there is very desperate with few jobs.
 I am not associated with this organization,
I just love how they are truly helping people.
It's great when you can help someone, but it's really
great when you can help someone in a way that allows
them to contribute to their own family and that
feeling of accomplishment.
These ornaments and the people who make
them are truly beautiful.
Connie
