Meeting 3: Modesty

  Our third meeting of the school year was on Thursday.  All 22 girls came, as well as a visitor who joined!  Looking forward to having this 23rd member in our group - what fun!  


  They all crowded downstairs and were great sports about being a bit squished.  We talked about Modesty on Thursday.  We discussed why we should dress modestly: because we are worth it!  We are worthy of love and protection.  We need to guard our bodies.  We talked about how modesty doesn't mean drabby, shapeless clothes.  There are a lot of modest, cute clothes out there!  It takes a little more searching, yes, but you can find them!  We also talked about what modesty is: an act of love, a heart issue, leading to where you want to go in life, glorifying to God rather than yourself, a guard to virtue, a signpost for what you believe, freeing, and obedient to God.  

What you wear is your billboard.
So, what are you advertising?

  My lesson on Thursday was longer than usual...quite a bit longer.  I was worried we'd run out of time, or that the girls would be bored silly.  However, while we did get a little behind schedule, the discussion during our lesson was great!  Girls shared their thoughts, ideas, and opinions as we went along.  After the meeting, I heard from several girls that they really enjoyed the lesson!  It made me realize that if we lose a bit of game or snack time, it doesn't matter.  As long as they're enjoying themselves and learning!
