My name is Lori Bethel, and on behalf of the Yakira committee I want to share with you about this very exciting Girl’s Event that is happening in London, Ontario on Saturday October 03/26 at Gateway Church.
The event is called Yakira, which in Hebrew means “Precious, Costly, Beloved”.
The event is for girls in grades 6 through 12. We recognize that this is a wide-ranging age span, however, it was important to us to include the entire Youth Group within the church.
Yakira is referred to as an Event, but our hope and prayer is that it will truly be an unforgettable Experience.
We have an awesome full day planned to include powerful worship, testimonies of God’s goodness and faithfulness, interactive workshops, and also a time to hear from some amazing speakers.
The speakers will be sharing about our identity and how we can BLOOM in Christ and the importance of having Him as the foundation/anchor of our lives. God created us to bloom with a beauty all our own. We’re diving into what it looks like to honor Him in the ‘wild’ of our everyday lives—staying vibrant and resilient in a world that doesn’t always make it easy to thrive. The girls will explore everything from building a healthy self-image and meaningful friendships to navigating the digital world and embracing our God-given purpose—plus so much more! The information that will be shared is all geared towards this entire age group, completely relevant and age appropriate, shared in a fun interactive manner, including games and giveaways.
The cost is ONLY $25 for the full day. Also, each girl who registers, upon arrival, will receive a lovely ‘SWAG BAG’ that is full of fun and very useful items (the value of this bag is more then the cost of the event). Lunch is also included in the ticket price, and we have lots of really cool giveaways that the girls will have opportunities throughout the day to win.
Last year we had over 250 come together for this event. We are praying and believing with great expectation for ALL that God is going to do in the lives of each precious girl who will be attending. We have a prayer team, that has been praying, and is praying and will be with us the day of the event, praying throughout the day, and available should any of the girls want to receive prayer for anything. Jesus Christ is Yakira’s FIRM FOUNDATION, and the solid rock on which this event has been built upon!
Yakira’s theme verse is Proverbs 31:10b “Her value is more precious than jewels and her worth is far above rubies or pearls.”
The title sponsor of Yakira is London Pregnancy & Family Support Centre.
