“simply be”. How much do girls need to hear this message? How much do all of us need to hear this message?! There is a brilliant day organised by ignite for girls coming up in a few week’s time, and if you’re anywhere near the Cardiff area, I recommend trying to get along and taking girls you’re working with, from school or your youth group. There is a whole day of fun including: Art, Dance, Drama, Pampering, Pyjama worship party and Sport. All designed so that girls can learn more about what it means to simply Be – to know they are God’s Beloved, to Believe in God’s truth, and to Become who God wants them to be.
