Last year, New Hope Anglican Church in Watertown held a Sew-a-Long and I met a bright young lady by the name of Sara LePine there. She contacted me near the end of last year wanting to organize a Sew-a-Long event with her Girl Scout Troop to help her achieve her Silver Award.
Well Sara and her troop put in about 70 hours and made Dress a Girl 50 pillowcase dresses! They are beautiful! I am so touched that a young lady would be so moved to want to do this project to help other girls! Girls blessing girls with new dresses! Awesome.
Sara was a bit camera shy tonight but did give me permission to use her name in my blog. I think it is worth sharing however as today's youth are sometimes sold short. It is inspiring to me to meet one who cares enough about others to DO SOMETHING!
So a heartfelt thanks from me to Sara and Troop 85501 in Connecticut! I am sure all the girls who receive the dresses will feel blessed by them!
