PIHI Ministries provides girls with foundational Christian principles and skills to develop a life of virtue, dignity, character and purpose. With a focus on proper etiquette and high moral values, classes are designed to instruct girls in manners and character development.
We are committed to a personal and effective learning experience and wish to limit classes to 16 or less. Classes are held March through May and September through November for approximately 6-8 weeks depending on the class curriculum. We also host three summer camps Beauty Boot Camp Training Academy for girls ages 10-16.
Ministry Purpose
Our purpose is to disciple and equip girls to become women of God and passionate followers of Jesus Christ, committed to love and serve Him in every area of life.
Ministry Verse
So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord--who is the Spirit--makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image.
~ 2 Corinthians 3:18
