GEMS

Girls Everywhere Meeting The Savior

Beaverdam CRC’s group for girls.  

This years theme is Transformed: Changed by God’s Word from the Inside Out.

HERE’S NOTHING FAIRY-TALE-LIKE ABOUT BEING A GIRL TODAY

Today’s girls are experiencing an overwhelming amount of pressure. In their efforts to fit in, girls are conforming to the world rather than the Word.

Something needs to change, and this kind of change must begin on the inside. 

IT’S TIME TO EQUIP GIRLS WITH THE POWER OF GOD’S WORD SO THEY CAN BE CHANGED FROM THE INSIDE OUT.

Just as caterpillars do not become butterflies overnight, we cannot expect girls to instantly experience God’s total transformation. But, we can trust that girls will be equipped to know, live, and walk in God’s capital “T” Truth as their hearts and minds are engaged with God and His life-changing Word.

We meet at church on the 2nd and 4th Monday evenings from 6:30-8:00PM during the school year for 3rd grade through 8th grade girls.  Check the online church calendar for next meeting dates.

Activities include: devotions, praise and worship thru singing, crafts, Bible study, snacks, earning badges
Annual activities: sledding, roller skating party, campout at Cadet Campgrounds
Other activities may include: hayrides, slumber parties
Leaders are women from our church
