Marina says, \u201cDuring my participation I realized that apart from receiving I also had the opportunity to share and contribute to the development of women, with the skills God has given me.\u201d This is true empowerment, for those who were once followers to become leaders that transform their own communities. Marina is only one of many who have been able to be a part of this transformation.\u00a0 Here at Covenant World Relief we are honored to be able to be partners in this process. No amount of funds, or work, or doing things can bring this empowerment and change to people\u2019s lives, only the grace of God. CWR and FDF are humbled to be able to play a part in our God\u2019s transformational work in the lives of families in Monterrey.
