Our Goal for OBSESS is to encourage young girls to live a life of sur-

render and devotion to God now when they are young. We believe that

anyone on firs for God can be a bright light in a dark world no matter

what age they are. Through OBSESS we hope to inspire girls to be-

come obsesses with knowing God and making Him know to the world.

We are excited to see OBSESS start again after a couple year break.

We have some previous staff as well as some new faces! Check the

website for more info. www.obsess.live

I grew up near Ft. Wayne, IN, and attended Christian schools. I have 2 brothers and 2 sisters and 4 of us were born with a degenera-tive eye disease which has left us legally blind. I am married, and we have 3 daughters, 1 son, 1 son-in-law, and 1 granddaughter. We home-schooled our children and own a home-based cabinet business. We are part of the Living Faith congregation near Harlan, IN. I want to help build the kingdom of God and love telling those who are lost about Jesus, and encouraging believers in their walk with Him. I also like to read, bike, walk, knit, garden, cook, bake, sing, and spend time with my family. (as well as a few other things!) I am a child of the King, and have millions of brothers and sisters! Praise the Lord! - Marsha Delagrange I was born in Lancaster, PA, and moved with my parents to Arkan-

sas at the age of 4. I cherish many happy memories of my first three

years in public school there. Then at the age of 8 we moved back to

Lancaster.... but not to stay. When I was 13 my parents felt called to

help a church about two hours away from Lancaster. What is strug-

gle! Leave my friends? My dreams? My anticipations? It took a giv-

ing up of my will! As a young girl I experienced some severe strug-

gles with my thought life, fears and a passion to please others. How-

ever, I feel that those struggles and my victories over them have

been very valuable tools in understanding my husband, children,

and others whom God has brought into my life. My husband, Simon,

and I anticipate celebrating our 40th anniversary later this year and

have been blessed with four sons and three daughters, three daugh-

ters-in-law, one son-in-law, and 11 grandchildren. My husband and

I love to travel and meet new people as well as host guests in our

home. In addition to that I enjoy gardening,sewing, knitting, piecing

comfort tops, writing letters, creating things with what I have, and

spending time with friends and family. - Virginia Bender

Chosen -Many are called, but few are chosen. Those who re-spond to the call to commit their lives to God are adopted by Him into His family. It is His desire to adopt you into His family as His daughter - a daughter of the King, a princess as you were created to be. Being a princess isn't merely a position, it is a high calling, a responsibility. The role of a princess is to serve the King and his subjects and to represent Him. This serving is a giving of oneself "To who much is given, much shall be required. Comforted -The struggle is real, there is an intense battle. We can hold to these truths though, we are created for Him, called by Him, we will be committed, and He has chosen us for His work; finally we can cling to the Comforter which dwells within His own. We can never do this on our own, but He has promised that He will never leave us nor forsake us, and His grace is totally and completely suffi-cient. The Power that created the universe dwells in you, you are His temple.

Created -Made in the image of God, but what does that mean? God made male and female, and they are equal, but dif-ferent. God made each one of us exactly how He intend-ed us, but yet we live in a broken world that has gone contrary to His will, what does that mean to me on a per-sonal scale? How can one embrace their femininity (identity as a woman), and their true value in their Crea-tor's eyes, while still grasping their own smallness when compared to the Almighty.

Called -There is a feast being prepared, a wedding feast, and we are the bride. God has spent all of Human history wooing us, working to redeem us so we could be His. It is what we were created for, to be His. The invitation has been sent, the dowry paid, He wants you, This world is broken, you are broken with it, but He wants to redeem, will you let Him? Committed -Now you have answered his call, but being a Christian, and a virtuous woman as you are created to be, is not an easy matter. Every day you will be faced with the ques-tion, "Will I walk in the Spirit or in the flesh? Are you really committed to Christ, I mean completely obsessed with this wonderful God and His work? Do you fear Him for the awesome God He is, do you love Him? It takes faith and grace to be a pilgrim, but what do those really look like?

OBSESS is a five day camp for girls ages 13-16, that this year will be

held August 9th-13th, 2017, at the Pleasant View Church Camp, in

Sullivan, Illinois. The week is an intense time of edification and encour-

agement that consists of daily initiatives, sessions, and of course fun.

Throughout OBSESS young girls will be stretched, sometimes beyond

their comfort zone, with the purpose of instilling them with a passion for

God and a desire to grow in Him
