History - 2006

This is the year that Judith Flemming decided it was time to step aside and Groton Heights Baptist Church decided to put the Beautiful You ministry on hold.

The Jaffrey Bible Church began their second year of meetings, directed by Karla Charles. I was blessed with the opportunity to teach the devotional thoughts. This provided some necessary accountability for writing the year two curriculum.

The theme was "Beauty in Relationships". We used flower arranging as a visual representation for the roles of various relationships throughout life. We had a great year with wellness highlights focusing on relational things like: caring for your space, planning a great meal, card making, and much, much more.

History - 2008

Almost up to date :) This spring we had our second ever teen girl conference, at Monadnock Bible Conference! What another amazing event, with over 250 teen girls!!! The Jaffrey Bible Church began their fourth year of club meetings, directed by Sheryl Duncan. Sheryl has taken this opportunity to stretch herself in teaching the devotional thoughts as well as direct the club. The Beautiful You group is enjoying this year’s theme of "Beauty from the inside-out" . The wellness highlights will focus on various aspects of physical beauty (skin care, hair care, nutrition, etc...) It has been a real blessing to be able to connect teen girls with women who can share in these various aspects of beauty! My hope is to take the next step, and present the manuals and Beautiful You concept to publishers. Therefore, making this ministry available to anyone interested. Many, many people have expressed interest in starting the Beautiful You Ministry within their church family. Please ...

Beauty and the Bubble Bath

  Beauty and the Bubble Bath What is Beauty?  Where does it come from?  What makes a person beautiful?  Is it their appearance, their attitude, or both?  Think of someone that you think is truly beautiful.  What makes them beautiful?  Is it their hair, their skin, their perfect figure?  Or is it their heart, their caring and compassionate nature, their gentle and quiet spirit?  Man vs. God:   We are bombarded by voices everywhere, each one expressing an opinion about our worth or what we must do to be beautiful, to be accepted and to be loved.  (like the latest fashion magazines & beauty tends) Where else do some of these “voices” come from? How many of us are honest enough to say that we sometimes believe the lies that the voice of “man” tells us?  I know I have struggled with this! In Matthew 23:25 Jesus exchanged conversation with the Pharisees, the religious rulers of His time.  He accused them of shining the...

Beauty in Appearance and Hair Care

https://www.freepik.com/ What do People see when they see us? We present ourselves through actions and attitude, or our presentation can be merely through our looks.  How important is appearances?  Question:  Are people so distracted by how we look, that they miss who we are? What is “Outward appearance”? According to definition:  Appearance is the look or outward aspect of a person or thing, an outward show; pretense to maintain an outward show of being proper, prosperous, etc… [1Peter 3:3-4 NIV] 3 Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. 4 Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight. According to this verse we are to be known for what?  The Spirit within . There is nothing wrong with hairdos, nice jewelry, trendy clothing. But our sty...
