A conversation between myself and a certain young gentlemen of our household this evening:
"'See 'Chelle, Tee?"
"Not now, Aaron."
"Where 'Chelle?"
"Chelle went on a long trip."
"Where she go?"
"To Romania."
"Wo-na-nia? Where that, Tee?"

Our vision
We are Christian young women who are in early teens to early twenties. We are at a turning point in our lives and want to see our sisters in Christ catch a fresh vision.
What we want to see is a generation of purposeful young women who passionately live for the glory of Christ and his Kingdom, wherever they are. Our desire is to give frustrated young ladies hope for the future and practical ideas for redeeming the present.
We have been burdened with and blinded by the cultural expectations placed upon us as young women, and each of us is questioning the authority of popular culture.
These are some of the problem areas we have identified in ourselves and in our peers:
1. Lack of vision
2. Lack of practical preparation for college, marriage, or singleness
3. Stereotypes the culture expects us to follow regarding beauty, success, and relationships with young men
4. Poor family relationships
5. Fear of the future
6. A lack of accountability relationships
7. Lack of role models
8. Failure to achieve goals
9. Unclear priorities
We want to encourage each other to 'keep on,' to be faithful in the small things, to not 'grow weary in well doing,' and above all, to pursue Jesus Christ wholeheartedly.
