Uplifting Thought: Kayla Cook

Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you.

Psalm 63:3

How many times do we say that we love life but don't also recognize. that this life we have is given from God? Sometimes we give all the glory to a good date, an A on a test or a night out with friends but don't recognize The Source of this awesomeness we've been given. I will make a challenge to myself and you to glorify God every time something good happens to you this week...because God's love is better than life.

Much love and peace, Kayla

A Word From Rush: Gamma Rho "Where Dreams Come True"



     Gamma Rho  "Where Dreams Come True"

It’s rush season! I can’t believe it’s here already! Elizabeth and I have been planning so many things and now we are actually going to see it all unfold. 
The theme for rush this year is Disney! So if you aren’t in the rush mood yet, pull up Pandora and turn it to the Disney channel! That channel is a winner!
     On Monday, we kicked off rush month with Club Night! All of our lovely sisters were looking fly in our first day of school shirts and our wonderful President, Hannah, gave a great speech to let the future rushees know what Gamma is about. We had an overwhelming number of 92 girls sign up at our table! It was great to meet some of our potential rush class and hear how interested they are in Gamma Rho.
     Yesterday night was our annual Masquerade rush event! And let me just tell you; it was pretty stinking amazing this year! We are having it at Mo Anderson’s house (our sister, Andee Wayne’s grandma). We ate some great food that was catered for us and played some fun get to know you games. Also, this year at every rush event we are giving all the rushees “autograph books”. It is something cute that will insure we meet all different girls and that they meet us as well! 
     Elizabeth and I are very excited to get rush going finally! It will definitely be hectic and may be challenging at times, but as long as we stay focused and continue to have support it will still be great! Many people are worried about the rule changes regarding induction. We are not. We are Gamma Rho and we know how to be joyful and have a good time building each other up no matter what! Thanks so much for being such a supporting alumni and thank you for all your prayers regarding rush. I am just so ready to have a new group of Godly women join our sisterhood!
