Abide: Christian Young Women's Event
Abide:
A Saturday Brunch Gathering for Teen Girls
In a culture that constantly tells girls to define themselves by appearance, achievement, popularity, or comparison, Jesus offers a better invitation:
"Abide in me." — John 15:4
Abide is a Saturday morning brunch designed to help teen girls discover who they are because of Whose they are. Through worship, biblical teaching, creative workshops, and authentic community, we'll explore what it means to remain rooted in Christ and become the women God is creating us to be.
What You'll Experience
- 🥐 Brunch with friends

Our Heart
Across My Heart exists to help young women passionately pursue the heart of God!
We believe every person bears God's image and that our bodies, minds, relationships, and stories all matter to Him. As we learn to abide in Christ, we begin to see ourselves through His eyes. Instead of asking, "Who does the world say I am?" we learn to ask, "Who does God say I am?"
Our hope is that every girl leaves knowing she is loved and called to live with courage, compassion, and conviction!
Keep Abiding
Abide is more than a one-day event. It's an invitation into ongoing discipleship.
Parents and students can continue growing through the resources of Across My Heart, including:
- The Yada Yada Podcast — honest conversations about faith, purity, relationships, and following Jesus in everyday life.
- Women of Church History (coming soon) — a devotional journey introducing readers to faithful women whose lives point us to Christ and remind us that God has always worked through ordinary women with extraordinary faith.
