Enterprise for Women in Sri Lanka

We have just had this news from Anne Baldwin, Mission Partner in Sri Lanka.  She shares the impact of a project which has been supported in part by donations from Methodist Women in Britain.

 " I have recently travelled north with Revd. Sumethra, Executive Project Coordinator of the Shalom Project for Peace. Her ongoing work with war widows and village youngsters takes various forms. A culmination of two years’ work with one group is providing the women with chickens, the eggs  will then provide food for the family and an income from sales. In the photos the day has come!  

Great anticipation. We all wait for the van to arrive and then the chickens are distributed, 10 to each family. A new chapter for these women as they will soon have an income of their own."
