This is Jessica.

A quick bio on this lovely lady:

She is 22 years old.  She lives in Burlington.  She works with kids and teens.  She loves to travel and explore.  She wants to have at least 8 kids someday.

She grew up in the backwoods of Mattawa on the Quebec border.  She is passionate about the Middle East.  Her family spent a stint as a Mennonite.  She is the second eldest of six kids (five girls).

She once got off a highway 3 exits early to get away from a guy who was checking her out!

By choice, she has never kissed a boy….well, at least since she was six!

And yes, she was one of my many childhood crushes.  Less than two years ago, after not seeing each other for ages, we met up randomly at a coffeeshop near her grandma’s house.  We talked and she was feeling ready to move out.  I said “move to Hamilton!”  She had been thinking that way, and after praying for a while, she did!

In the past 4 years she has led in two different youth groups, serving mostly high school girls.  She loves them dearly, and prays often that they’ll live like Jesus.

Here’s why I like her, and why you’ll like her too:

She’s a great servant leader.  She will do anything for you.  She works HARD.

She is VERY generous.  She is a HUGE part of the reason that The Sex Rev even exists.  She buys flowers for my wife, putting me to absolute shame.

She is absolutely committed to her purity and right living.  She spends tons of time with God, and has surrounded herself with godly relationships.

She’s great.  She loves people.  Seriously, I had to DIG for pics of just her, because every shot shes’s in is with other people!  She’s a great listener and a wise talker!

Jess will be posting on No Boys Allowed about once a week.  Believe me when I say this- she is worth your time.  She is worth listening to.  Learn from her. She has such a huge sense of understanding and perspective.  She knows what’s what.  Follow her as she follows Jesus.

Are you ready?!
