Jesus Girl Gathering set to uplift, empower women
MINDEN, La. (KTAL/KMSS)—A movement rooted in faith, sisterhood, and healing is making its way to Minden with the 3rd annual Jesus Girl Gathering, hosted by Jesus Girl Enterprise on Thursday, June 13th, 7 p.m. at Elegance on Union, located at 310 E. Union Street in Minden, La. Founded by Shammia Williams, a preacher's kid turned community leader, Jesus Girl Enterprise began in 2018 as a small coffee shop conversation about Jesus, personal goals, and spiritual growth. Since then, it's blossomed into a powerful platform for women seeking to grow mentally, spiritually, and emotionally. 'You can expect breakthroughs, miracles, signs, and wonders at this event,' Williams said. 'It's a safe space for women who may be struggling in silence to heal and start feeling the weight lift from their shoulders.' Williams says her own journey from battling fear and shyness to walking boldly in her purpose fuels her passion to empower others outside the traditional church walls. The theme is 'Shades of Pink,' and attendees are encouraged to wear their favorite pink outfits. The event is free and open to the community, and vendor spots are still available.

It's the cheapest price we've seen for these smart glasses. The Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses are far more than just a pair of specs with a camera. Meta AI features give them all the smarts to answer any questions about the world around you. All of this is underpinned by a stellar-looking set of specs that feel great to wear all-day round. Plus, boasting water resistance always helps. Multiple styles are on sale from $239. In our Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses review, we said the Editor's Choice glasses look great and work as advertised. We liked the sleek design, improved camera quality, and the ability to live stream to Instagram. The audio quality is also better than the previous gen, whether you're listening to music or making phone calls. And the specs are water resistant. Meta has also revealed new celebrity voices for the Ray-Beta Meta glasses, including John Cena and Kristen Bell. There's also more language support from the AI including French, Italian, and Spanish. The other big change is a new "adaptive volume control" and "loudness boost", available in audio settings. Finally, there is a new music detection tool. If you're listening to a track through the glasses you can say "Hey, Meta what's this track". Perfect for when you're tuned in to an Apple Music station or a random playlist.
