Team Pink Princess

Team Pink Princess is in full effect. I am so excited about all the recent revelations regarding it's mission, purpose, plans and events. I have been given the opportunity through breast cancer to expand my territory for the Kingdom though many avenues and Team Pink Princess may just be the largest. I have wrestled with the mission, the outreach, the purpose of Team Pink Princess for months. I apologize for the lag time, God's timing and mine aren't always in sync. Now it is time to reveal the plans, the purpose, the mission for Team Pink Princess and what you can do to help, support and or participate in. Are you ready? Let's do this!!!! Team Pink Princess is a multi fauceted organization that will be hosting retreats for breast cancer survivors. The premise of Team Pink Princess is different from many other breast cancer organizations. The mission for the organization is to help survivors move past and beyond breast cancer. It's mission is to provide healing and restoration to those either fighting the disease or emerging from it. After cancer we need emotional, as well as physical healing, to move past the disease. Cancer has been the largest challenge of my life and I am so blessed and thankful that God chose me to kick off this journey. I know this is what He meant that day when He said...."This is your testimony and you will tell a lot of women." Team Pink Princess, at this time will begin hosting weekend retreats starting this summer. I am working with several camp grounds in Missouri that have the capacity to hold LOTS of women. I am hammering out all of the details in the upcoming weeks, but plans are firming up quickly and I believe by the 1st of June I will have some dates, agendas and pricing. The retreats will host speakers, authors and someday soon high profile survivors. Remember we are in the infancy stage. All I know is that God has revealed tiny pieces of what this is for months and in the last week the curtain is coming up! Retreats include canoeing, zip lining, fishing and even possibly hunting. They will include ministry specific to moving past breast cancer and other challenges in life. The premise is to get away for a weekend with other survivors, be inspired by the outdoors, face some fear with some physical challenges such as zip lining. I am terrified of heights but if we can kick cancers butt....we can zip line. Who's with me? Before cancer I was afraid of many things heights, bridges, planes....after cancer I say bring on the challenges! I am no longer afraid! I am no longer paralyzed by cancer either or the fear of it. I refuse to give cancer any power over me. I refuse to let cancer " define me". Love you Dara:) And neither should you! Team Pink princess will emerge soon with a website clean ore clear cut objectives, goals, and also opportunities for those that want to donate time, money and efforts. I hope that you will think about your role in the organization. If God tugs at your heart to either donate a scholarship for a survivor, to attend a retreat or maybe volunteer to help with a canoe or hunting trip please let me know. There will be many opportunities to support Team Pink Princess so please continue to lift me and this organization up in prayer that God would lead us in the way He would have it function. Also, I have no idea about the inner workings of an organization such as this, whether to be for profit, not for profit etc. Any legal advise as well as accounting would be greatly appreciated!!! I love you all and thank you for supporting me through and past this journey. Now it's time we start helping some other Pink Princesses. Go Team Pink Princess!!!! Let's do this!!!!
