Adwenpa Creations



Meeting at Heritage College
Amy and I traveled to Ghana with a group of individuals involved in various organizations and ministries in Ghana.  Aubrie Lashley was there representing 'Heartbeat for Hope.' We were interested in collaborating together on some projects.  One of those was to create another women's training center in some impoverished villages outside of Accra, the capital city.  Amy & I traveled with Martha on several long and sweaty tro-tro rides to meet Susie and Faustina, women with an interest in serving women in their communities.



The reason that Premec Creations has been successful is because of the passion and interest of Martha.  We were skeptical whether we could ever find anyone to replicate the love, sincerity and investment which Martha brings to the program.  We were thrilled to meet Susie and Faustina, women who work tirelessly to improve the lives of others.  Martha immediately connected with them and was encouraged to find kindred spirits amongst them.  We were thinking that the women would want to take their time in planning and preparing, observing before committing to the work of an additional center.  Within a matter of 10 minutes they had not only decided that they were ready to take on the responsbility of a center, but that they wanted to open in March!


Martha, Chelsea, Susie, Amy, Faustina & Aubrie
 Susie and Faustina settled on the name Adwenpa Creations.  In Susie's words:
"The name chosen for the training center is ADWENPA CREATIONS. It is a Twi word which means "Goodhearted' thus thinking good about people, or having good thought about humanity". We choose this name because as Christians we have to show kindness and have generous heart towards people to fulfill their God given potentials."  We are pleased at the perspective that Susie and Faustina have towards the work.  They are currently enrolling students and will begin in March.
Chelsea will return the last week in March to attend the opening program of Adwenpa Creations.  Please stay tuned as we update you on it's progress!
