This is Nellie ... she was rescued from a public pit latrine. Our Colour launch is full of fun and colorful images, which I totally love and believe in ... however I wanted to add just one of the faces of our "collective cause". As a Sisterhood we are here to "hear the cry of the afflicted and hurting", whether that cry is from a filthy pit latrine toilet in far away Uganda, as in Nellies case, or from a hurting neighbour across a backyard fence or down the hallway of an apartment block.

Invitations are landing and as I have already tweeted, it may be a "lite" brochure by intention but it is "weighty" in what it represents. It represents lives yet to be impacted by the love and rescue of God. There are orphans, sisters and nations whose cry has yet to be heard.
