Worth Waiting For
Wait. Think. Live.
Saving Sex for Real Commitment
While many teenagers may be confused by today’s media message of what a healthy relationship looks like, Worth Waiting For goes against the acceptable social norm and presents the message of saving sex for marriage. Experience has shown that the impact of this group lasts a lifetime and saves students from hurtful broken relationships, helps heal their pasts, and prepares them for the future. We invite you to learn more about Worth Waiting For’s life-changing message and how this exciting peer program dramatically impacts today’s youth.
Purpose:
Worth Waiting For is a peer drama team that has been educating, entertaining, and encouraging middle and senior high school students since 1991.
Performances:
Each Worth Waiting For performance is about 40 minutes in length and is appropriate for students in grades 7-12.
Worth Waiting For’s uniquely effective peer abstinence message is presented to thousands of area teens each year.
Peers:
“I understand the decisions I make today will affect my future spouse …I want to give her purity.” Jonathan
“I joined Worth Waiting For because I know that my virginity is something precious, something that I want to protect.
I believe that girls are princesses and should be treated as such in relationships.
A big part of that is making sure that your partner respects you, your values, and your purity.” Maura
“I know there are painful consequences that result from having sex outside of marriage...
I want to encourage my peers to wait and enjoy the freedom that comes with abstinence.” Sha'Nae
“I’m saving sex for marriage because I believe that it is the greatest gift anyone could give their spouse.
It is a way to show my future wife how much I love her- more than words can say.” Jason
“I want the best for my future and part of that is saving sex for marriage.” Chrystal
“This group opened my eyes to a lot of things about sex I had never really thought about.
Hearing this message made me want to tell others." Richard
