UPDATE: Missing Girl - FOUND! Thank God!!!

2011-03-08T13:00:00.000-05:00

Alexis Stevenson was found uninjured, in Harlem at approximately 11 p.m. Tuesday night when she approached a New York City Police Department officer in the 23rd precinct and told him that she ran away from home the previous day.

"She was taken into protective custody by the NYPD who contacted the Summit Police Department," said Lt. Steven Zagorski in an e-mail Wednesday morning. "The Summit Police department in turn contacted her parents who responded to NYC to take custody of their daughter."

Zagorski said the daughter of Board of Education Vice President Michelle Stevenson and husband Kenneth, was alone when she approached the officer.

"We are relieved and thankful for her safe return," Michelle Stevenson said by e-mail late Tuesday night.

Stevenson was reported missing on Monday morning after she was seen walking away from Summit High School shortly after 7:45 a.m.

It is still unknown at this time why the teen ran away from home.

HAPPY

It's been TWO Years already ladies! We have been through quite a bit together! A lot of laughter and growth, a few tears, a few trips, and many, many changes. But -- what remains the same is that I Love You, God Loves You and YOU are the daughter of the Most High! Your royalty is your legacy and the promise is that nothing good will be withheld from you as you continue to walk in the purposes of our Lord.

I look forward to our celebration brunch tomorrow, and sharing the plans I have to grow our organization, its membership and financial supporters.

Continue to be the path of light for your friends and classmates!

Stay well with Love,

Greetings My Lady Princesses!

Ooh how I've missed our meetings this month. I'm looking forward to seeing you all on February 12th.

Don't forget to complete your prayer vigil assignment!

I pray all is well with you, and I leave you with this to ponder from Phillipians 4:12-13, NIV

I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through Him who gives me strength. Amen

Service is Honorable Work!

“Taking It To The Streets

A Rally for Peace in Our Communities/

Guinness Book of World Records Double Challenge”

The mission of this event is to leverage the strength and notoriety of the Guinness Book of World Records brand to bring the Greater Plainfield community together around a positive platform, and our event vision is to bring together the community by having an event that will positively impact and highlight the rich reso...urces of Plainfield and the surrounding areas.

This rally is an answer to the negative images that plague Plainfield and other urban cities. This rally is an answer to critics who naysay and choose not to believe that cities and citizens of cities can rally around a positive cause and send a positive message. This rally will highlight a city that is determined to improve the condition of its people.

This is a rally that will make history by BREAKING TWO WORLD RECORDS! During this event, we will seek to break the records for Largest Gospel Choir (current record 1000) and Largest Number of People Performing Sign Language While Simultaneously Singing the Same Song (current record 4796). On October 2, 2010, between the hours of 9 a.m. & 6p.m., in Cedarbrook Park, Plainfield NJ, 10,000 individuals will sing with ONEVOICE. The registration fee is only $10.00 (Tax Deductible) per person to participate. There will be Food, Fun and Entertainment throughout the day.

Are you willing to be a part of something that will make a greater impact on our youth, our communities and future generations?

2010-09-08T00:13:00.001-04:00

I copied this from a friend's FACEBOOK page. It was just the perfect sentiment!

In a completely rational society, the best of us would aspire to be teachers and the rest of us would have to settle for something less, because passing civilization along from one generation to the next ought to be the highest honor and the highest responsibility anyone could have!

Happy First Day of School!

Katie Washington (UND photo)

She's Notre Dame's first black valedictorian

(WBBM) -- History is being made at the University of Notre Dame this spring

In the 161 years the University of Notre Dame has been awarding degrees, never had there been an African-American as valedictorian. Until this year.

She’s Katie Washington of Gary, Indiana. She carries a 4.0 GPA majoring in biology and minoring in Catholic social teaching.

According to the Northwest Indiana Times, Washington plans to continue her studies at Johns Hopkins University and follow in her father’s footsteps into medicine.

Washington says she’s humbled by the honor of being named valedictorian.

More information from Notre Dame University:

Katie Washington, a biological sciences major from Gary, Ind., has been named valedictorian of the 2010 University of Notre Dame graduating class and will present the valedictory address during Commencement exercises May 16 (Sunday) in Notre Dame stadium.

Washington, who earned a 4.0 grade point average, has a minor in Catholic Social Teaching. She has conducted research on lung cancer at the Cold Spring Harbor labs and performed genetic studies in the University’s Eck Institute for Global Health on the mosquito that carries dengue and yellow fever. She is the co-author of a research paper with David Severson, professor of biological sciences.

Washington directs the Voices of Faith Gospel Choir at Notre Dame, is a mentor/tutor for the Sister-to-Sister program at South Bend’s Washington High School and serves as the student coordinator of the Center for Social Concerns’ “Lives in the Balance: Youth Violence and Society Seminar.”

Upon graduation, Washington plans to pursue a joint M.D./Ph.D program at Johns Hopkins University.

Facebook/MySpace Etiquette

2010-01-24T02:44:00.000-05:00

Hey There!

Lady Princesses -- be careful what you post on FACEBOOK...MySpace or any other internet portal as the pictures, videos and/or words reflect who you are wrongfully or rightly.

Some of the language is NOT COOL and you know this. Our Pastor(s) are part of our friends list and can see your page whether you "friend" them or not.

So go through your pages and DELETE the stuff that if your Mother, Father, Pastor or MENTOR was to read you would be embarassed to explain it. I love you guys -- I'm writing this note because I care not because I wish to scold.

Please remember you are NOT like everyone else! You MUST ALWAYS choose to do the right thing -- no matter how easy or enticing doing it the wrong way may appear to be. With Love - Mrs. Renata!

I Present The Lady Princess Purity Bracelet...A T2C Exclusive!

2009-12-21T20:25:00.000-05:00

Our Lady Princesses were presented their Purity/Abstinence bracelet on Saturday.

The bracelets represent their commitment to remain pure and/or abstain until marriage. It has their name engraved on the front of the ID portion of the bracelet. The crown has the letters T2C (Tiaras To Crowns) mounted on it with 11 diamonds. The underside of the ID bracelet has the following inscription: "Worth Waiting For!" and Our Princesses CERTAINLY ARE!

They worked hard to be able to purchase these and we THANK YOU for YOUR SUPPORT in helping to make this happen!

We made a plan to purchase these by Christmas and the princesses took all the necessary steps to ensure this happened.

That is a Life Lesson:

Make A PLAN,
Work the PLAN
and then-- MAKE it HAPPEN!

Kudos to my Girls and again -- to you *CFGC* for your love and support!

Fondly,
Mrs. Renata

And A FUN TIME was had by ALL!

2009-12-20T21:46:00.001-05:00

Lady Princesses -- thank you for a wonderful weekend! It was really awesome getting to play games and laugh with you!

And let's thank Mrs. Cassandra for dropping in and helping us ensure we concentrate on our INNER Beauty, studying God's Word and applying it to our daily lives so that we become virtuous women after God's own heart!

I hope you all had as much fun as I did and I look forward to doing it again real soon!

Have a wonderful week in school and Have an AWESOME CHRISTMAS!!

I'll see you all on Sunday!

Much Love,
Mrs. Renata

So -- remain open-minded and open-hearted to receive our guest with grace and in LOVE!

Some Thoughts For Today...

2009-11-06T12:13:00.002-05:00

Living is the constant adjustment of thought to life and life to thought in such a way that we are always growing, always experiencing new things in the old and old things in the new.

[Thomas Merton]

The Compassionate person feels with God's heart.

[Day Spring Cards, Inc.]

We have been in God's though from all eternity, and in His creative love, His attention never leaves us.

[Micheal Quoist]

Good Morning CFGC Family;

This message is of great importance to those of us who are Plainfield residence, especially if you have children in the Plainfield School District or own property in this community. Our educational system is once again in crisis.

Having been an active advocate for education in Plainfield for the past 5 years -- I have seen us blow through 4 Superintendents in less than this time, and we can very well be on our way to losing a 5th!

Our Board of Education (BOE), our parents and our community -- and YES that includes our CHURCH families continue to sit on the sidelines while our children's future is being negated and marginalized by incompetence, abuse and mismanagement.

To what do we owe this next generation of children? If we DO NOT help them develop a means of securing a future, we will undoubtedly need to secure our homes and personal artifacts as this new generation tries to survive by whatever means necessary!

Please check out the following articles written in the Courier, 2nd Article, 3rd Article as well as My Letter to the Board of Education requesting their immediate action. I urge you to consider copying and emailing this letter to our BOE to let them know we EXPECT and DEMAND their accountability.

Additionally, I ask that you pass this on to your fellow Plainfielders. Our property value is directly affected by the rating and rigor of our educational system -- so even if you don't have children in our schools -- if you own a home here or a business or a church -- you have a VESTED interest in seeing this issue end successfully.

As always -- I appreciate your time and consideration and I call you to righteous indignation!

Love,
Me

AS prayer moves into the heart, sentiment and reason act more in concert. Our prayer work becomes more and more tender, more and more loving, more and more spontaneous. It feels less like work and more like delight.
[Richard J. Foster]

You're my place of quiet retreat; I wait for your WORD to renew me... therefore I lovingly embrace everything you say.
[Psalms 119:114]

Thoughts For Today

2009-10-08T13:18:00.005-04:00

The Lord does not always remove the sources of stress in our lives...
But, He's always there and cares for us.
We can feel his arms around us on the darkest night.
[James Dobson]

As a rose fills a room with its fragrance, so will God's love fill our lives.

You Are Co-Ordially Invited!

2009-10-05T12:33:00.003-04:00

God is an inviting God. He invited Mary to birth His Son, the disciples to fish for men, the adulterous woman to start over, and Thomas to touch His wounds.

God is the King who prepares the palace, sets the table, and invites His subjects to come in.

[Max Lucado]

Words of Wisdom...

2009-10-02T14:58:00.001-04:00

"Charm can be deceiving and beauty fades away, but a woman who honors the LORD deserves to be praised."
{Proverbs 31:30}

Words of Wisdom For Our Princesses

2009-09-30T09:47:00.014-04:00

Again, I want to offer my many, many thanks to all those who came out to support our T2C Princesses fundraiser last Saturday.

Each attendee was asked to share a favorite quote/scripture or adage for our young ladies to post on our blog and in no particular order here they are:

[Sister Myra Snow-Woody]

Injustice anywhere, is injustice everywhere. {Martin Luther King, Jr.}

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are honest, just, pure, lovely, whatsoever things are of good report: any virtue, if there be any praise, think on these things. {Phillipians 4:8}

Life is day by day, moment by moment.

[Brother Alejo Hernandez]

And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it,

and gave it to them, saying,

"This is my body given for you;

do this in remembrance of me."

In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying,

"This cup is the new covenant in my blood,

which is poured out for you. {Luke 22:19-20}

[Sister Michele Moore]

Give a man a fish; He will eat for a day.

Teach a man to fish; He will eat for life. {Author Unknown}

[Deaconess Carolyn Jones]

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and

lean not on your own understanding;

in all your ways acknowledge him,

and he will make your paths straight. {Proverbs 3:5-6}

And...MINE.... of Course:

Our Greatest Fear is not that we are inadequate,
but that we are Powerful Beyond Measure.

It is Our Light, not Our Darkness that frightens Us.
We ask Ourselves, who am I to be Brilliant,

Gorgeous, Handsome, Talented, and Fabulous?
Actually, who are You not to be?

You are a Child of God…”
{Excerpted from: Marianne Williamson ~ A Return To Love~}

We ALL Have A Part...

2009-09-25T09:16:00.002-04:00

We cannot rebuild the world by ourselves, but we can have a small part in it by beginning where we are.

It may only be taking care of a neihgbor's child or inviting someone to dinner, but it is important.

[Donna L. Glazier]

Don't Miss It!

2009-09-24T13:22:00.001-04:00

Life is full of opportunities for learning love...

The world is not a playground, it is a schoolroom.

Life is not a holiday, but an education.

And the one eternal lesson for us all is how better we can love.

[Henry Drummond]

Dress Like ROYALTY!!!

2009-09-18T15:20:00.004-04:00

“Charm can be deceiving and beauty fades away, but a woman who honors the LORD deserves to be praised.” [Proverbs 31:30]

I’ve called you to be royalty, my princess.

You don’t have to conform to the wardrobes of the world to feel good about yourself.

Remember, what you wear initially defines what people think about you. I want your wardrobe to honor me.

You don’t need to dress to get attention-I can make you more beautiful than any fashion designer because I specialize in internal and external makeovers.

Your favor and beauty will radiate because you are a reflection of me.

Keep in mind that those who design clothes to expose your body do not love your soul like I do.

My love let your wardrobe reveal my spirit-not your flesh. So robe yourself today like the royalty you are.

Love,
Your King and your eternal beauty

[Excerpted From: His Princess, Love Letters from Your King, Sheri Rose Shepherd]

Thoughts To Ponder...
