Worship and the Word—The Unique You—Heart to Heart Saturday began with a time of praise and worship; followed by instruction in the Word from Minister LaShawn Myers who led the girls in a dynamic heart to heart session. Four simple questions opened the
door to dig deep into issues of self identity, self acceptance and holy boldness in Christ. The questions were: 1) What do I LET people see? 2) What makes me unique? 3) Am I okay with being unique (different)? Why or Why not? 4) Do you know what God says about you? The opening scripture was in Hebrew 4:13 and closing thoughts were from Psalms 139:14. In between responses, dialogue about the answers given were confrontational, comforting, and comical. This discussion was a springboard to more
personal sharing and interaction. The ball was passed and question cards were pulled from a box. Whatever was asked you had to answer. This was not as tough as the next phase. After each young women had a turn passing the ball they were then able to ask one another a personal heart to heart question. Laughter turned to tears as many of the girls took off their masks and allowed themselves to be vulnerable. Transparency was necessary to prepare for the healing that was yet to come.
