We are elated to bring you the very first issue of Teen Fashioned Magazine!
"Hello" from Julie
Wow. What can I say about this? Well, this couldn’t have happened without several people, so let me start there. First, I would like to thank every single one of the girls on the team. Thank you for being the fearless young leaders that you are. You are brave, strong, and courageous young ladies who will impact and change the world. Each one of you is a powerhouse who has been fearfully and wonderfully made, and I pray that you continue to let your light shine. Thank you for your time and dedication to the magazine. This would not be possible without you. This is your gift to the world, and I hope you know how proud I am of every single one of you precious young women. Second, I would like to thank Cyndi Galley, Editorin-Chief of Fashioned Magazine. Thank you for your leadership, mentorship, and partnership with the magazine. Thank you for trusting me with your vision and allowing me to run with it. Thank you for helping me see myself in the light that the Father sees me in. Thank you for being YOU! Lastly, I would like to thank Miss Cynthia Zuniga, our graphic designer. Thank you for using your gifts and talents to help birth our magazine. You are God-sent, and I am incredibly grateful for your partnership. I am incredibly thankful and blessed by every single one of you. To our readers––we have been praying for you. We are SO glad that you are here. You are strong, resilient, and far more precious than you know. May what’s in these pages remind you of how special and unique you are, and may it empower you to be true to YOU, no matter what the other voices may say! You are so loved by God––the one who Fashioned you to be YOU! And to our team's parents. Thank you for your partnership in helping to launch this ministry––we are so thankful for you! With Lots of Love, Julie Ornelas-XO Director
