Turning Dreams into Reality!

What an amazing and fun afternoon I had! 

Felito and boys spent the sun-filled afternoon working on the outreach sound-system while my girlieness came out!

A young bride-to-be phoned in a panic late last night. She was to be married on Saturday (today is Wednesday) but she still didnt have a wedding dress and a friend told her to ring us. IM SO GLAD SHE DID!

One of my dreams is to see brides have their dream wedding dress on their special day

For the majority of people, weddings are super expensive and take many years to save towards, others just give up or dont even try. By lending the bride a dress brings a smile and huge relief to them and to me. Just another way we can show the love of Jesus and bless others!

Veronica is from Xai-Xai. So she travelled three hours down to Maputo by public bus to try on her special dress. She arrived very nervous but left a different girl! A huge smile on her stunning face not to mention a weight off those shoulders. They were close to cancelling the wedding, due to not having a dress. While we had an amazing afternoon of arh-ing and goo-ing and just letting the girlieness come out. Was such fun! We were able to talk and pray with Veronica. After an hour we had narrowed the choosing of the dress down to three. Then after a two more hours of chatting and laughing Veronica had chosen her dress. Then it was time to choose the veil, which led to the conversations on hair amd makeup etc. 

Before she was to return to Xai-Xai we were able to pray with her and feed her. Am truely excited for this bride and so looking forward to the photos.

Thanks again to those that have donated wedding dresses, veils, jellewry! 
Its such a joy seeing my dream become reality and seeing the love of Jesus being given in such a special way!

God bless and love.
Anna
