Fellow Seed Effecters, Tara and Isaac Kohlbacher just returned 3 weeks ago from South Sudan where they joined in on an e3 Partners church planting campaign and served alongside Team Seed Effect to launch our Seed Loan Program to our first group of loan recipients. Here’s a short testimony about the trip from Tara:
“Before going to Kajo Keji, I couldn't even imagine what living on less than $2 a day looked like. When I arrived, I soon saw the reality that essentials like health, education, water, food, and shelter were often not being met.
I saw that the women, in particular, do all they can to provide for their children even though many do not have any education due to war and/or finances. Giving a woman a small loan along side business education and spiritual discipleship, can give her a chance to provide these essentials. Maybe for one woman that means saving her baby's life when he gets malaria and maybe for another, it means sending her children to school.
After this trip, I better understand the need for Seed Effect in this community!”
After having seen the need in South Sudan first-hand as well as the impact that Seed Effect is making on these women, the Kohlbachers are hosting a Seed Effect Christmas Party on Thursday, December 3rd to help raise funds for more loans to help impact more families!
We’d love for all of you Dallas Seed Effecters to join us! For more information and to RSVP, visit the event webpage at: http://event.pingg.com/thechristmaseffect
