About Me

Lily7 is a ministry devoted to creating changed hearts in the lives of college women. The ministry was formed by a group of women committed to encouraging, challenging, and preparing college women for life and ministry. The ministry was officially established in 2003 under the name P31 Ministries, Inc., and began providing retreats for college women in April of 2004. In the summer of 2005, the name was changed to Lily7, which means "purity completed in Christ" and represents the desire for purity of mind, heart, and soul in our relationship with Christ.
