Hi everyone! Heart of Ruth Mission is hosting our second Christmas Craft Show this November 19th, between 10am-3pm, at Centennial Arena in Hanmer (just outside of Sudbury, ON). Entrance to the craft show is just a $2 donation per person. This entrance ticket also includes one entry into our door prize. There will be 30+ vendors in attendance (including about 20 local crafters, selling a huge variety of items!). Heart of Ruth Mission will also have a booth and will be selling handmade items from local Kenyan artisans, as well as providing information about our current projects and our Child Sponsorship Program. The talented kids from Happiness is Dancing will join us to sing and dance again this year! They were a hit at our show in 2015 and we just had to bring them back. There will also be a bake sale table, and a face painter! Come and join the fun! As always, proceeds from this event will directly support the children living at Rainbow House Children's Home. This time we are raising funds to build a Transition Home for the children who will be turning 18 in the near future. According to the laws in Kenya, once a child turns 18 they are considered adults and must leave a children's home. Most of our kids, at 18, are not yet finished Form (Kenya equivalence of Highschool). Heart of Ruth is building a safe and secure home for these young adults to transition into adulthood. They will live in this home until their education is completed and they can stand on their own two feet. We have completed the first phase, and need about $10,000 Canadian Dollars to complete the rest of this project. NEW* All donations that are $20 or over, are now eligible for a Canadian...
Genetic Testing: What's the risk of knowing too much about ourselves?

However, with the onslaught of direct-to-consumer genetic testing, anyone can test their DNA for heritage, ancestry, or disease markers. Is there a risk to understanding the makeup of your DNA? How private are your results? What types of discrimination could you open yourself up to? With testing, we can seek better treatment and practice preventative medicine, but what are the potential adverse personal and societal consequences? FREE! (No registration required)
