Our youth group was out knocking doors & inviting people to church when my knocking door buddy and I found Melissa's house. After talking to her mom, she and her little brother rode the church bus to Sunday School the next morning.
She has been one of the most faithful bus riders I've ever known; always excited to help with anything, and loving to sing with everybody.
That was 5 years ago. Since then, she has joined our church-still as faithful as ever- and has grown into an absolutely beautiful young lady (obviously on the outside, but even more so on the inside!!).
She's entered a pageant for this weekend and needed a few portraits done.
Here are her winning shots:
Oh yeah, her eyes are AWESOME....
