the dresses were for their trip

I was thinking about what she could do to earn money, so I asked her if shed want to sew prom dresses, Lease said.

The teen had never sewn before, but the two were able to make more than 60 ****tail dresses in just six weeks. Unbeknown to (the girl), the dresses were for their trip, said Lease, who paid the teen for her help, then donated the dresses to the youth group.

As the youth group begins to gear up for its June 2012 bi-annual trip, Lease decided she would once again have prom dresses for them to give out. She hopes to have at least 200 ready by next summer, and sees the dresses as a way of encouraging girls and women in the ministry, which is in the area of Tepic, Mexico.

Its a culture where women can probably use encouragement, she said.
