the pledge party approaches!

As I type, the Etas are downstairs making the house look AMAZING for our pledge party! They have been baking since *last night* (!) and putting decorations up since the afternoon. There is a red carpet through our door, stars all over the living room, and a screen set up in the back for scene it (it's a board/tv game) and/or a movie. Yay!

Speaking of last night - if you get the Trojans Alert on your email or phone, then you know there was a shooting an subsequent police activity in the USC area last night. There was a police perimeter set up, and our house was about a block outside of it (and then more as the perimeter shrunk). It was kind of scary but God kept us and all of our sisters safe. Praise Him! We continue to pray for our area, and we try to help out by volunteering at places like Adventures Ahead. Our principal ministry, besides building each other up, is to the other sorority houses at USC. They need God's love so much and we are blessed to be able to serve them however possible! But we can also have a positive impact on our community. God is so powerful!

And lastly - check out the 'Cornify' button on the ribbon on the right. A friend showed me that today and since I'm the webmaster, well, I get to put it there! Enjoy :)
