In the ancient city of Fenghuang in central China, there is a small home workshop where seven Miao minority women sew beautiful Bible Covers. Established by American couple Paul and Dorothy Lacy, who lived there for 14 years, the factory is now owned by a local Miao woman, Sharon Long. The women are paid fair wages, work in a comfortable and happy workspace, and are treated with love and fairness according to kingdom principles.
Meet the seven Miao ladies who make these Shenaini Bible Covers, along with the founding owners, Paul and Dorothy Lacy. These Bible Covers are truly made in the home, where the women arrive at 8 am each day, chatting amicably as they settle into an 8-hour workday. Sharon Long, the current Miao owner, has thoroughly trained these skilled seamstresses. Over the 14 years the Lacys ran the factory, Sharon was prepared to take over the management and ownership.
Pei Xin Mei, a widow with two university-educated daughters, is one of the most skilled Shenaini seamstresses. She handles special orders and develops new designs. One satisfied customer remarked, "This is the best sewing I've seen in years - double cording, double zippers, sturdy material. I've sewn for 60 years and this is an exceptional piece."
Shenaini offers three sizes to fit various Bible and prayer book dimensions. The fabric, a beautiful Shepherd's Weave from a minority people in southwest China, is 100% cotton - tough yet soft. When the zippers are fully open, the Bible lays flat for easy reading. Interior pockets and pen loops provide organization.
Customers praise the superb quality, noting the experienced seamstresses, quality cotton fabric, sturdy padding and zippers. The Purple Plus! design features vibrant, versatile colors. Available in medium, large and extra-large sizes, this custom-made Bible case is a beautiful, durable solution.
The Shenaini home factory embodies kingdom principles, with the Miao women earning fair wages in a comfortable, loving workspace. The American founders trained the current local owner, ensuring this small business continues to thrive and empower these skilled artisans. Each Shenaini Bible Cover is a testament to their expertise and the heart behind this enterprise.
