Girls' Ministries (GM) is the official name of the IPHC discipleship ministry to girls. Our discipleship focus uses the girls club concept with clubs for age groups from preschool through high school. Local churches who choose not to use this curriculum should still implement a ministry to girls. Our goal is to win girls to Jesus Christ, disciple them and make imprints with eternal significance.
Heartland Girls Attend Power Chicks 2011
It's a girl thing!
July 29-August 1, over 35 girls and sponsors from Heartland Conference attended Power Chicks at Ridgecrest Conference Center outside Asheville, North Carolina. The trip was organized by Heartland Girls' Ministries Director Frances Cullum. The girls spent four days learning, praying, playing, giving, and worshipping, together with over 500 IPHC girls from around the United States. Power Chicks raised $5000 to take Girls' Ministries to other countries. Keynote speakers were Alyssa Shull and Beth Stephens. Several of the daytime speakers were from Heartland Conference, including Kimberly Hooper Wilkerson, Jennifer Parker Terry, and Debbie Little. Reports indicate that 75 girls were filled with the Holy Spirit during the final Power Chicks service.
Leonardo’s Warehouse was the setting for our discovery sleep-over. They have a huge second floor area that was reserved just for our event. Girls showed excitement as they arrived from all over the Heartland Conference. They checked in by groups, getting their bracelets and heading upstairs to drop off their belongings. Then it was next door to Adventure Quest castle where they used their imagination and stretched their creativity muscles until it began to get dark. Back inside, they explored all that Leonardo’s Warehouse has to offer.
