So who am I? I’m Hannah, Child of God, wife, mother, seamstress, baker, writer, wannabe poet, missionary in the Philippines, and now blogger. My life is not particularly special in the Great Scheme of Things; it’s simple, busy, messy, but I love it and I want to make it count.
This blog starts along with a new chapter in my life. My husband and I have been missionaries since 2010, and we have been in and out of the Philippines several times to several different islands. Our daughter was born in the States, before the first trip. We lived on Cebu all of last year, and that’s where our son was born. In May of this year, 2014, we moved to the island of Mindanao, to Butuan City. The move here was different from all the others because we will be staying here for at least 5 years, meaning I can really get us settled in. Basically since we got married at the beginning of 2010 we have been going or preparing to go. For the first time in 5 years I feel I can breathe easy and get used to the air.
In Cebu I had a sewing ministry teaching women in poor communities how to make and repair clothing, how to make little zipper pouches, purses, bags, wallets, etc. Once my sewing machines, fabric, and notions arrive Ill start one here. I really cannot wait to start sewing again! I have some new patterns to try, which I will of course document here and share pictures and reviews. And I have some patterns which have become favorites for me and I’ll let you know about them too!
Please join me in this new chapter, read it as I write it and be a part of whatever happens! God Bless!
