Motema Ministries presents the 8th Annual: Taste of Congo!!
Come and enjoy the World of Congo with a night of Congolese Cuisine, Music and Fashion to help benefit Motema Ministries work in the Congo with their Sewing Program.
At the school, Lisungi pe Mateya, people from the community take part in a multiple-month sewing course, learning how to sew from scratch, free of charge. In a country like Congo where trips to the tailor are a common occurrence, learning this critical vocational skill can provide a source of income and help in finding a job. In some cases, the training has provided young entrepreneurs the impetus needed to begin producing and selling their own products. Students are also mentored by Motema’s staff in Congo and learn about what it means to follow Christ.
