This weekend Pan de Vida celebrated the 15th year birthdays of Carmen and Bertha. In Mexico, when girls turn 15 it is as big an event as most women's weddings in other cultures. It is important for the kids to know the traditions of their heritage and at the same time ministering to them the importance of becoming a young woman.
The service started with praise and worship to God through music and then Justo delivered a message on how each should walk with God and live according to the word of the Bible. The girl each received gifts of a ring to symbolize their commitment to God, a Bible to live by and a photo album to document their journey.
This is our 3rd Quinceñera to attend and what I love the most is how each of the girls embrace dressing up like the princesses they are. They get full of excitement as they get their nails, hair and make-up done. They are definitely princesses as they are children of the King!
Our internet provider isn't allowing me to upload many photos so here is a link to an album I was able to create on a different page.
Enjoy~
Psalm 119:9 How can a young man keep his ways pure? By living according to your word.
