2 Corinthians 5:17 - Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!
I went to my friend's house tonight for drinks and to catch up and she gave me an early Christmas present. It is a wine bag made from recycled plastic grocery bags and VHS tape. It began as a ministry project by New Creations Ministry.
New Creations Ministry is an outreach that began last fall. There goal is to use teaching and training to improve the lives of the Zambian. The current focus centers around the making of handbags using only recycled plastic grocery bags, a pair of scissors and a crochet hook. In a country with few resources and very little capital, such an enterprise is within the reach of most Zambians. In terms of supplies and tools, it is easily sustainable. Since January, over 25 ladies have handcrafted more than 250 bags, ranging from small wallet-sized bags to bags suitable for carrying large loads.

Thanks Katie!
