Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction. James 1:27.
An ordinary woman’s personal commitment to sew 100 gift bags has reached over 150,000 gift bags and delivered to over 90 countries in just nine years….with an “extraordinary” God.

– Wendy Hagar founder of Sew on Fire Ministries.
We were honoured to tour the “Sew on Fire” warehouse in Burlington this week and meet with Wendy Hagar. Recently, some of our mission teams have partner shipped with this ministry and brought gift bags to distribute to patients in the hospital in Puerto Plata, to the elderly, the poor and the needy. 
We saw that their warehouse was full of donated goods and an army of volunteers to sort them. Wendy says that “this is what happens when you step into the calling and destiny for your life. God pours provisions and blessings on you until your life is as full and overflowing as the warehouse”. 
Volunteers sew the thousands of gift bags needed each year, while others teach willing volunteers how to crochet, knit and sew not only blankets, hats, quilts, mats, slippers, clothing & dolls, but many more things too.
Create, sort, bag and then donate. As fast as the gift bags can be made and the backpacks filled with school supplies, they are sent in the luggage of mission teams or on containers to be given out to the poor and needy of this world. 
164,998 bags and counting ….. offered with the hope of a future in spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ. God’s Message is their mission!If you would like to partnership with "Sew on Fire" go to: http://www.sewonfire.com/.
