This is an organization for the empowerment of young African women. While meeting over the phone on a monthly basis, this group meets in person at the annual Women of Dominion (WOD) conference. We recognize the needs of the immigrant African American girl and aim to help her establish true identity. Sifting through the struggles of being a part of one culture at home, while simultaneously thriving in another world of norms and values, concurrently maintaining her identity. This is a group that serves to bridge the gap by empowering these girls’ modesty, purity, and respect for self.

1. Be empowered, make new friends who share the same roots as yourself and also look like you.
2. Find your identity and be proud of who you are.
3. Get an opportunity to discover your voice and your skills on a safe platform.
4. Come and be celebrated and developed to be tomorrow’s leader.

 MISSION STATEMENT
 The mission of GLT is to spiritually empower, socially uplift and mentally equip teenage girls to preserve their PURITY, MODESTY & RESPECT for herself and for God! 1 Peter 2:9-1 “But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.”
 
 VISION
 The vision was this organization is to see the teens of today become parents who have maintained the Biblical truths of purity and modesty, and are rooted in the Word of God. We want to create a generation of parents who do not conform to the standards of this world for HIS name's sake. As an immigrant maintaining pride in heritage and culture is a God-given benefit and must be maintained for generations to come.
 FOCUS AREAS
 GLT focuses on many areas of teachings. Here are some of the tracks. Any organization that deals with youth and children require parental involvement for full success and great outcomes.
 
 ~PURITY~
 True love waits has become a bad word in some circles of society for many reasons. It's considered old fashioned amongst the youth of today to be a virgin. Yet the Bible emphasizes the importance of virgins. It is pleasing to the Lord when we are obedient. When we keep his Temple our Body, Holy for his purposes. He marks that as righteousness. Following many weeks of Bible study and teachings, once a year willing teens will sign the Purity Pledge and get a Purity ring.
 Note: Purity pledge is optional and parent discretion recommended.
 
 ~MODESTY~
 We encourage teens to be modest in all aspects of life. They do not need to conform to the standards of this world. Worldly beauty is only skin deep, but godly beauty is as deep as the character of a person. The very first meeting I had with 5 girls at a Culver's ice cream place, remains very memorable to me. I asked them, what is modesty to you? What has mom told you? What does the Bible say?

 Here is a summary of what they said:     
-“it's to be conservative, protecting, the humility of person,      
-it's a character issue,      
-it's your attitude and your use of words.     
-showing your cleavage is inviting the wrong kind of guys to pay attention to you”.

Parents keep talking they listen, they hear you. Never stop being the voice of reason.
  
 ~KNOWLEDGE OF GOD~
 Many Bible topics are taught by a variety of speakers along the course of the year and then at the conference. Some examples of discussed are self-love, the pride of heritage, money, and culture, Fruits of the spirit, armor of God, money, prayer etc. Children get topics and research and get opportunities to preach to others. Some of the children are now young adults in universities. They still come back and encourage the younger ones. They are now beginning to take leadership positions. Several Pastors and teachers of the Word of God have been to our meetings and teach the youth/kids.
