When we first started glittr two years ago, we would host monthly events for girls in the Bucharest area.  We would have different events that would be on different topics and presented in a creative way that were relevant to the girls attending.  After we created our curriculum we started to move towards doing more small groups with the girls and less events.  The girls coming to glittr events or small groups were telling us that they loved having both!  So, we decided to bring back some events throughout the year again.  

We were thrilled to host our 2nd annual Fresh Start Spa event!  The event is a great occasion for young girls to connect/reconnect with God, with their self and with others. For one day they have the opportunity to escape the everyday monotony and routine and find the chance to relax, to participate in good conversation and to enjoy qualitative introspective time.  Using a simple parallel (between doing a manicure and the spiritual life), in just a few steps the teenage girls have the opportunity to learn in a very profound and tangible way what it means to get rid of the useless and old as to allow God to come and pour inside the new and the fresh.  Sometimes the relationship with God needs a start and other times it needs a fresh start or a restart. Our event on the 28th of May was exactly that! The young girls were challenged, through tangible images and examples to get rid of what is old and to adopt what is new and fresh.

It was an amazing day.  We had over 70+ girls attend the event from Bucharest and other cities near by.  We cannot wait to host it again next year and maybe even in different cities around Romania!!
