JAM Ministries Princess Fashioned Conference 2009

DVD Video Promo: DVD Video Set ($20)
On behalf of JAM Ministries and our Princess Conference Board we would like to thank you for making our "Fashioned 2009" Princess Conference a success! We had about 300 girls from Pasadena, Waco, Houston, Galveston, Snyder, Abilene, Lufkin, Dallas, Carollton, Gainesville, and many more places in attendance! Friday night, Mrs. Rebecca Contreras challenged the young girls to dream big despite their past situations or life experiences. Countless girls and women alike expressed through our conference follow-up that they were encouraged and could identitfy with her story. They too felt that God could heal, restore, and build them up for greatness! Conference Worship was led by Veronica Soto and Band of Braeswood A/G in Houston, Texas. Pastor Veronica specifically wrote a song entitled "I am Fashioned" for this year's conference. They did a superb job leading us in worship and preparing the atmosphere for what God was going to do. Our Saturday sessions were so insightful! Mrs. Bobbie Roberts, Middle School Session Speaker, inspired the girls to not live a life of mediocrity, but to be confident in who God created them to be. Mrs. Cecilia Santini, High School/College Session Speaker, educated the young girls on common signs of depression, cutting, and low self-esteem and challenged the girls in how to respond to peers and friends who are facing the above types of crisis. A returning favorite, Mrs. Melissa Lopez, our General Session Speaker, touched on a very important topic--"Authentic or Knock-Off Version: God's Ultimate Design for Love." Through her engaging and interactive presentation, Melissa brought an awareness to the many distortions the enemy puts before our young ladies in the area of love and sex. Her presentation was much needed and helped remind the girls of their value and self-worth. After an afternoon of games, a Fashion Show, and some great giveaways, the conference wrapped up with a closing session, led by Dr. Nina Rios-Doria of Loving You Ministries. Dr. Nina spoke to the ladies about the "5 Things to Remember as a Princess." A big thank you to our conference team and staff for their dedication and to all the Pastors, Youth Pastor's wives, leaders, and chaperones who gave of their own time to bring their girls to this event. And to our "daughters" . . . YOU ROCK!! You made this conference what it was. We love you and will continue to pray for you. Remember . . . you are FASHIONED!! Get ready we will see you in June 2010!!!
