Passion Purity Conference (Ladies Chapter)
Crystal Lattibeaudiere,Youthlink Writer

The Passion and Purity movement, under the leadership of founder and president Donnette Norman, was designed to empower, edify and encourage participants to live a truly passionate and pure life.

Wolmer's High School for Girls recently hosted the ladies chapter at a conference during which the students were inspired by words of wisdom from speakers, including co-president and radio host Olecia Wedderburn-Christie, who addressed the need to break the power of ungodly role models. Dr Stevenson Samuels, Reverend Carlene Riley and Yvonne Vernon also made presentations during which they carefully unwrapped gifts of knowledge to enlighten and edify those in attendance.

In addition to the speakers, a variety of gospel artistes and other individuals were invited to share their testimonies. Judy Mowatt was number one on the list as she shared her journey from Rastafarianism to Christianity. She also ministered through her well-known song I want to be more. Kerron Ennis delivered a stirring ministry during which she challenged the students to cry out to God and invited the adults present to hug each girl as a sign of unity and support among the young and the old.

Concert time!

The conference ended with a bang, as DJ Nicholas and Kerron Ennis took to the stage. This certainly excited the young women who hurriedly made their way to the foot of the stage to enjoy songs such as Daddy Oh, What kind of church is this, Nah bow, Can't stop it and Living for Jesus, which blessed their hearts. The day was one of great impact, especially on the lives of the teenage girls present.

At the end of the day, the newly energised girls were ready to embrace their passion and walk in purity.
