The Duduza Project
 It all began with a news article about American missionaries supporting AIDS orphans in Africa. Jane King was touched by the final paragraph, which described the children’s joy when they were given duduza dolls knitted by hand in America. That was enough to get Jane busy knitting duduza dolls and encouraging others to knit them, too.
 It takes about four and a half hours to knit one doll, and each one is unique. Jane has received help from others in the parish and beyond. At last count, a number approaching 2,000 of the dolls had been sent to 21 countries. Jane says she recalls a saying that reads, "A hundred years from now, it won't matter what kind of car I drove, the house I lived in, or how big my bank account was. But the world may be a better place because I was important in the life of a child."
 Anyone interested in knitting duduza dolls is welcome to join in the project. See Jane.
