Girls-the Secret to the Future - Mpact Ministry

A fire burns warmly in the living room of Stacy Prevette.  It's summer, and this fire is glowing not in the hearth, but in the hearts of the women in her rich, teak toned entertainment area.  The ladies are all ages, all walks of life, but they are all devoted to mentoring young girls, spiritually, practically, emotionally, and mentally.  After 10 years of experience with the Mpact (formerly Missionettes) organization, I know that this discipleship works. 
Mpact is the sorority that we all wish we had in elementary/middle/high school.  Those who longed for relationships with other girls that fostered character and community service, based on a loving relationship with the Father through Jesus Christ, His son, would have wanted this!
The curriculum structure, devotion of the teachers, church support, and beautiful award celebrations make for a long-term program rich in delight for the girls.
Leaders over the years have created an outstanding environment of Christ-centered warmth, acceptance, and high expectations for the girls.  Our daughters have been involved since 1997, and our 3rd daughter is beginning the intensive Honor Star program, a 3 year program where the girls study the foundations of the faith, church history, and they memorize 30 plus Scripture verses.  The culmination of the Honor Star program is a comprehensive test, followed by a formal Crowning ceremony where the girl receives a crown.  The parents escort their precious daughter, and after the ceremony, the crowned Honor Star presents her crown to the Lord, according to Revelation, where the saints give their crowns to the Lord when they come into His presence at the end of time. 
The Crowning ceremony is a rich, moving event, where the impartation of faith and of the Holy Spirit is palpable and tangible.  "Study and show yourself approved.", is the call that the girls and the leaders respond to in Mpact, and the depth and richness of the relationships and the girls' spiritual commitment is one of the most heart-warming, meaningful girls' ministries available.  It must be or why am I volunteering again...!
