Creative Ironing 101

Well, if you have a Swedish style ironing board that doesn’t have a tip small enough for ironing shoulder seams, what do you do??? You use your hand!!! Here’s Mattieu ironing a blouse shoulder. Thankfully I found out that he pads his hand with a small towel. I’ve seen women turn hot food with bare hands, but I was going to be dumfounded at skin tough enough to withstand the continuous heat of an electric iron.

About danforth

As Covenant missionaries, we are working with all the tribal groups of the Central African Republic (CAR) but are trying to give special attention to the Fulani, a Musxlim, cattle herding, and semi-nomadic people group. We live on an experimental/training farm, near a mission station which has a hospital plus bible and nursing schools. We are establishing relationships with the local people groups through compassion ministries; Roy through agriculture and Aleta through public health and visitation, in order, ultimately, to share the good news of Jesus the Messiah with them. CAR is one of the least developed countries in the world and is currently in continual crisis (since the coup in March 2013), so reaching out in compassion is key to reaching their hearts. Due to the ongoing conflict and resultant ethnic cleansing in CAR, we are crossing the border to interact with our Fulani contacts.
