Economic development ministry inspires teens
Delta Jewels design and make beautiful jewelry. These young ladies, ages nine through 19, live in Helena-West Helena, Ark., one of the poorest areas in the United States. They are considered at-risk teenagers whom many have given up on.
However, this jewelry co-op, started by CBF field personnel
Ben and Leonora Newell, has become the shining light in these girls’ lives. These young women are realizing entrepreneurial skills as well as learning to care for others. They are finding inner strength and worth. Learn more at
