Threads of Blessing

Beryl Wright

Beryl was born in England and moved to the USA in 1970. She has always had a passion working with her hands through embroidery, knitting, and dressmaking to name but a few of her skills. She has lived in Wyoming, Texas, Colorado, New Mexico before moving to Pennsylvania about 10 years ago. While living in Texas in the early 2000s, she became interested in short-term missions. Her first mission trip was to Honduras in 2003 as part of a veterinary team. The men worked with animals and the women went into schools to teach health and hygiene. Two years later she went to Uganda and spent two weeks working in an orphanage. She returned two years later. Then she reconnected with friends in Texas who had started Threads of Blessing 15 years ago. Threads of Blessing is a ministry working with women. This ministry has grown spread into many areas of Uganda and has enabled the women to learn new skills and start micro-enterprise businesses. She has now been to Uganda at least 12 times.
