Why Jewelry for God's Jewels?
It gives an immediate accomplishment..
It takes less than 20 minutes to design and make a pair of beautiful earrings, 20-
30 minutes for a bracelet, and 30 minutes to 3 hours for a necklace. But more
importantly, each students sees the fruit of their labor right away and are often
amazed that they made such beautiful jewelry.
It provides self-worth...
Because they are working with top quality materials, semi-precious stones and
sterling silver. The students are taught the value of what they are making and it
makes them feel valuable because they are being trusted with these materials.
It is an opportunity for creativity...
It gives students the opportunity to create something that is precious and
exercise their God given creativity.
It is therapeutic...
They learn color coordination, how to create and follow patterns, and learn
concentration skill in order to follow patterns correctly. It helps them in their
process of becoming mentally sound and emotionally whole.
It teaches a vocational skill...
It provides a means of income for the student during reentry and opens
residual blessings to come back to the organization that helped them.
It is fun...
We always create a fun interactive working environment with the students.
It is a good income producer...
