Treasured Celebrations
The Missing Ingredient....

                  ....is YOU!

 

 
Greetings!

 

I felt an excited anticipation well up in my heart as I began to write this letter.

Why, because my time of reflection has renewed my confidence that the Lord is at work in and through those who are a part of the Modern Day Princess (MDP) ministry. 

Since our inception 11 years ago, Treasured Celebrations has been on an amazing God led journey allowing us to see life-impacting changes in the hearts of thousands of teen girls and their families.  One the greatest joys on this path has been the companions (YOU!) the Lord has brought  to encourage us along the way:

 

v    Volunteering your time to help carry out the expansion of the ministry.

v    Becoming a MDP Leader and blessed many of our teen girls and their families.

v    Accepting the invitation to become an Advisory Board Member, assisting in the administration and oversight of the ministry.

v    Faithfully supporting us to financially meet our monthly needs

 

Our journey has allowed us to receive many testimonies, like Elissa's email below, that re-affirm our goals and purpose:

 

"As a first time MDP leader, I was tremendously touched as I saw the outpouring of His love and provision for girls I never thought had pain in their lives.  He opened my eyes to how important this study is and the impact it has not only in the lives of the girls, but on their moms and dads as well.  Below is a card from a father sent to me last week.                     Elissa

 

Dear Elissa,

When my wife first told me about what would be expected of the fathers, "to say a blessing over our daughters," I put it off.  From my past studies I knew what that meant and I wanted no part of it.  I have been walking in darkness for years and did not want to hear His voice, but being required to speak a blessing over my daughter, my life has changed and I have come to realize I am not condemned.  

Thank you...  A Dad in Southern, CA"

  

I hope that Elissa's email touched your heart.  However, after receiving her email I happen to read a letter from the President of National Christian Foundation.  The subject line read:  "Donors care about data, not just stories."  Therefore, I am providing some of our latest stats for your review, as well:

Ø     25,400 Raising a Modern Day Princess (RMDP) books are in print as of March 2011

Ø   We have reached 48 states in our nation with the Leader's Guide & 6 countries internationally

Ø   RMDP is being translated into Spanish by FOTF and will be released this year.

 

Now that we have looked back I want to move forward and share with you our current needs and goals.  To keep this from becoming a lengthy letter I have provided a more detailed account of our goals in the section below and the funds needed to accomplish them.   

 

What I do want to address is our highest priority that will aid us in continuing our daily administrative functions and further expand the ministry.   We must begin to cover our $4,000 monthly operating expenses.  Therefore, I am asking the Lord to speak to 100 individuals, churches or businesses, who will set aside $40 per month to help us reach the millions of  teen girls who have not yet become MDP's, to further equip and encourage moms and leaders,  and touch the hearts of men and others for the Lord, like those in Elissa's email.

1) We want to proclaim Wednesday, October 19, 2011 a national Girl alone - freckles

 "Save Our Girls Day."   Total cost:  $3000

Our goal: provide greater visibility of our ministry across the nation on that day and train our alumni to be true ambassadors for Christ.  In order to do so, we must have a minimum of $3,000 to cover our projected promotional costs (i.e. sending out press releases, mass postcard mailings, designing T-Shirts, etc. )          To raise funds in local communities, we are suggesting Princess Kick-off Parties, Princess Runs, and other similar events that will encourage new teen girls to attend a future MDP program.

Used by leaders all over the US and internationally to introduce

the girl's program in their communities

 

3) Promote the new study for women, entitled "Still His Princess ~ Becoming the Bride," purposed for women of all ages (18 & beyond) to discover or re-affirm their God ordained purpose and destiny.      Total Cost:  $1000                                                                                                                   

The following statements are from a few of those women who participated in our 1st celebration in November 2010:


 "Close friends of mine were touched by the whole celebration, most of us with father issues. We realized how our lives and the decisions we have made would be different if we had a program like this.  How many hurts would have been healed and how much stronger as woman we would have been"   ~ Vicky V.

 

  "It was wonderful to discover my God-given personality traits.  I am now going to be the president of the employee's association at work.  I would have not had the courage to do this otherwise." ~ Margie M.

 "This has defined both  me and my destiny." ~  Vicki W.

 

We are praying that women leaders will rise up like they have for the Modern Day Princess program.  Therefore, we would like to make the training affordable.  A scholarship for a new leader is $150 or $1,200 for a group of 10.  Our goal, a Still His Princess leader in every state in our nation!  We short by 2 states to reach that goal with our MDP as of last month!
