As a global sisterhood we seek to stand alongside women in our communities and across the globe - telling them that there is a God in heaven who loves them and a company of women who believe in them.

 

This mandate as of March 2009 is outworked through our partnership with Shine, teaching young girls and women that they have value. This program has been run across the globe and reaches places that many people would not normally have access to.

 

It is also outworked through our partnership with Watoto through the program of Living Hope, sponsoring HIV+ women giving them and their children a chance at life.

 

However we are also labouring to provide women with tools and inspiration for them to work in their local communities. Sisterhood local is an initiative designed to help women to change their neighbourhoods by being a friend, and rising up to address the injustice in our backyards. At Colour 2009 we ran Sisterhood Local Unpacked sessions. These gave practical tools and assistance to those desiring to make a difference in their community.

 

At Colour 2009 we presented a very real need in the area of Human Trafficking. In partnership with the A21 Campaign we are seeking to provide solution to girls trapped by human traffickers in Greece. These girls are being rescued and rehabilitated and given fresh hope in life. This is just the beginning of how we are seeking to provide solution to this evil trade.
