Girls of Grace: South Tulsa Baptist Church Girls Ministry







Girls of Grace is the new girls ministry at our church, South Tulsa Baptist Church. God put this on my heart back in November of 2007 and I have been praying for God to raise up some strong leaders in the youth to lead. He sure provided this summer during Super Summer at OBU. We quickly began meeting and praying together over this minsitry and what God would want us to do. The girls really were seeing a need for mentoring, accountability and fellowship within the youth group. We had our kickoff on October 8th and God provided 18 girls for the bible study!
We are currently doing a wonderful study workbook by Vicky Courtney called HisGirl. I am so proud of these girls...they are truly precious daughters of the King. On the 15th we met and one of the girls that God has called to lead in this group taught....what a blessing to see these girls ministering to one another! Truly what great plans he has in store for this ministry as we seek to know Him more and make Him Known!

Way cool. I love to see teens step up and minister to each other. One of the 11th grade classes I taught had a lot of cool kids like that. It was so encouraging to see them love on each other and counsel one another in the Lord.
