  1. Hello Chelsea,


    My name is Claudia Langford from the blog, http://www.sowersofhope.blogspot.com/. My daughter follows your blog and has gleaned a lot from your writings. When reading your blog, we saw that you headcover.

    On our blog, we felt led to begin a blog post series called S.E.E.D. (Stories. Encouragement. Examples. Discipleship.) whose primary focus and intention is to help women who have a wealth of wisdom to share with others how long they have been headcovering, why they decided to headcover, if they have experienced any animosity from family members and others, any advice they have to give to other women who either do headcover, etc. We ask those who would like to participate to respond to us with their answers and if possible attach a photo of themselves. To see the list of questions, you can look at at former interviews here: http://sowersofhope.blogspot.com/p/seed.html.

    We would like to ask you if you willing to be interviewed in the S.E.E.D. seiries and share your headcovering story. If you would like to be interviewed, you can respond to sowersofhope@gmail.com , or you may visit our blog and fill out the contact us form. Kindly let us know whether or not you would like to participe in our S.E.E.D. interviews.


    In Him,
    Claudia Langford
