Priceless Gowns


This weekend I was able to be apart of an awesome ministry at First Baptist Conroe. Last year my Sunday School class started up "Priceless Gowns" because we all had a bunch of dresses that we were not likely to wear anymore. So our mission became to give away FREE prom dresses to girls in Montgomery County. We wanted to be positive role models and encourage girls in our area to be successful . Times are tough, particularly right now, so what an awesome time to help out, regardless of financial or family circumstances.

So after months of organizing, tagging, hanging, cleaning, sizing, sewing, decorating not to mention contacting businesses, newspapers, and photographers our day was a success!! We had girls walk away with a dress, shoes, jewelry, make-up, Bible, and a hair appointment!! It was so awesome to see this girls who would otherwise not go to prom be completely taken care of. I hope that each one felt God's love.
We well be hosting Priceless Gowns again this Saturday, March 7th from 9-1 at FBC Conroe.
