Purity Ceremony

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Romans 12:2

Do you ever feel the need for a second chance? In this life, we find ourselves doing and saying things that may leave us feeling guilty and ashamed and thinking "if only."

If only I had another chance to get it right.
If only I can get a brand new start.
If only there is a way to stop falling into this mistake over and over again. 

The beauty of salvation through Jesus Christ is that we are not only forgiven for our past sins and failures, but there is a lifetime supply of forgiveness available to us for the rest of our lives. We are provided an abundances of chances to move forward and start anew. 

Upon completing the six-week Purity + Peace women's small group study, women are offered the ability to participate in a purity ceremony where they publicly declare a new covenant they are making with the Lord to remain mentally, physically and spiritually pure. Many of the women who partake in the ceremony are renewing this vow, but some are doing so for the first time. 

On January 14th, four women began a new chapter, committing themselves to a lifetime of purity. To them, this IS their second chance. As a ministry, we are honored to provide this intimate moment for women who have chosen to live their life differently from how they have been living it in the past. Take a moment and check out the video below that recaps this powerful night of renewal.





We are looking forward to providing more and more women the opportunity to the second chance that's offered through Christ Jesus. 


If you are interested in participating in a purity ceremony, please contact us to partake in our Purity + Peace program. More information can be found by click on the menu tabs at the top of this site.

Purity + Peace is a women’s support group rooted in Bible study, assisted by group discussion and personal testimonies to provide a safe environment where women can heal from emotional and mental baggage. This group is for any women  seeking healing and reconciliation from past hurts and “failures” (whether from romantic relationships, family, friendships, poor choices, bad habits, etc.) and are seeking accountability in remaining mentally and physically pure. If you feel strained with life, stress, anxiety/depression and want to commit to purity, this group will help you get on track toward purity and peace. Topics include, “What is purity?,” “Your body is the temple,”  “The importance of covenants” and “How to get accountability.” Additionally, the ministry offers a purity ceremony for all women who want to dedicate themselves to a lifetime of purity and vow to remain sexually pure until their marriage day.
