IMPACT: Handmade with love in Rwanda ♥ Made by artisans with Azizi Life, an organization that participates in local initiatives for the development of Rwandan communities working towards physical and spiritual wholeness for all. Azizi believes that God cares deeply about each person's physical well-being and relationships with one another, as well as relationships with Him. Azizi sees the brokenness of the world- both in ""the West"" as well as in their home country of Rwanda - and believes that it is only through a relationship with Jesus Christ that true healing, wholeness – and development – can be found.

Sapha Winter Felted Wool Soap ...
$45.00
DESCRIPTION: Each 2 ounce round bar is wrapped in soft wool felt, transforming practical cleansing into a decorative delight. The trio includes a green ball with a snowy white tree and dotted design, a blue ball with budding white branches and a crisp white ball adorned with green branches. Infused with the refreshing scent of nettle, these soaps gently cleanse while the wool casing creates a natural, built-in exfoliant. The felt shrinks with use, extending the life of the soap and leaving behind a soft wool pad when the bar is finished.
