The Custom Made Princess Sleepover was a huge success, with 95 girls and 50 volunteers participating!  The girls had a great time Friday night hearing the story of Esther and receiving beauty treatments.  On Saturday, moms (or other Titus 2 women) joined the girls for a tea.  The crowns that that the girls had worn while collecting jewels and stickers were symbolically laid at the throne of Jesus, and they had a time of commitment.  You may download their Custom Made Princess Commitment, available as a PDF file.  Click here to enjoy more pictures of this fun weekend.

During Custom Made, our preteen girls enjoyed making jean pillows and spending time with their moms. There was even a hula hoop contest - who knew we had ladies with such talent!  Custom Made meets one Saturday a month from 9 am to noon. Click here for more pictures or visit http://www.custommadetweengirls.org/ for more information about Custom Made.

 

Custom Made 2011-2012 Theme
Bring out the pink!  We are excited to announce that our theme this fall is "Better Than A Fairy Tale... Living the Adventure as a Daughter of the King!"  We will talk about what a true princess really acts like including humility and service.  We'll be using the book from Elizabeth George, "A Girl After God's Own Heart" and Erin Davis' book, "True Princess".  We are planning fun crafts, life skills and recipes to learn. 

Be a Titus 2 woman by passing along your skills and Jesus' love to the next generation! Custom Made, a ministry to tween girls (2nd grade and up), is in need of life skill teachers, rotation guides and more. Plus, we are collecting adult jeans for future crafts. Read More

Custom Made Toy Drive 

Custom Made Toy Drive Report

Our thanks to everyone who purchased new toys for the Children's Hospital in Denver.  Items were delivered on April 2 by Jean Teel and two of our Custom Made girls.  Visitation was limited by the hospital due to cold and flu season, so we weren't able to send a large group of girls as originally hoped.  These items will bring hours of enjoyment to children undergoing treatment, and your support of the toy drive is greatly appreciated!

Over 80 Custom Made girls (2nd - 5th grade) had a great time learning how to be the type of girl God wants them to be. They learned about being a super and trustworthy friend, and enjoyed worship time, crafts, snacks and spa time as part of this SPA-tacular slumber party. On Saturday, moms could join their girls for an interactive tour of Wonder Women from the Bible.  Our thanks to everyone who gave their time and talent to make this weekend a success, especially Pastor Greg for spending the night and providing building security.  Click here to enjoy more pictures.
