This blog was created to spread the vision of our work in Tanzania. After working in Arusha for a few years now I have discovered that to make any real change we must focus on the women of this community. Our nonprofit Shining Light (www.shiningalight.org) has been created to provide jobs to women in extreme poverty so that they can be empowered to care for themselves and their families. Our goal is to keep women working and children educated.

It's been so very long since i last blogged so if anyone is still following me out there i am very sorry. With all of the different social networks out there it's hard to keep up but i would like to reassure anyone that is still interested I am now back to blogging. So many exciting things are happening with me and more importantly Shining a Light! God has blessed me with an opportunity to help empower the women and children of Arusha, Tanzania. Sometimes i am not sure why He has called me to this place that requires patience and for women to display a meek and mild spirit but one thing i am sure of is the CALL to be here. His provision for people with the same heart for these women and children and the knowledge and wisdom of the culture and the vision to help them has confirmed that Shining a Light, our nonprofit (NGO in Tanzania) is on the right path to accomplishing HIS will. We have two amazing Boards both here in Tanzania and in America filled with people with a heart for Him.
I have been so blessed working here and seeing His hand in so many ways. This blog will continue to track those amazing encounters when He shows up and turns bad to good, weak to strong and impossible to possible. Please continue to follow us as we change lives by introducing people to their personal savior and watch how this transformation empowers them.
Shining a Light is a nonprofit created to empower women and children through employment, education and spiritual enrichment. Find out how you can help us empower these women and children at www.shiningalight.org
In His name,
Jennifer
