Coconut Earrings | 12 Days Shopping Fair Trade | #1

January 20, 2020 by Sarah Neufeld Leave a Comment

Coconut Earrings | 12 Days Shopping Fair Trade | #1

It was love at first sight when I saw these coconut earrings in the Fall Collection of Color of Hope!

But this artisan-crafted jewelry carries a story that goes back to 2013 in Lindi, Tanzania, where a group of women met together “with a hope and prayer to unite the church.”

They called themselves Mama Wa Nuru, which means “Women of Light.”

Now, a united group of six women gather to collect coconuts from local Tanzanian trees and repurpose the shells to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind pieces of jewelry.

These women are using the income they earn to provide for their families.

I love these stories. God moves. He shapes, and He restores.

“A bruised reed He will not break,

And smoking flax He will not quench;

He will bring forth justice for truth.”

Isaiah 42:3

God does not cast us away. He repurposes our weaknesses and failures.

Is there an area in your life where you are praying for restoration?

Know this, He is faithful.

Why I became an Ambassador for Mercy House Global

Everyone is struggling with something, yet there is always someone out there who is feeling the hurt and hardship more than we are. The question is this:

“What are you going to do about it?”
