God used Phi Lamb in an unbelievable way to shape me in my college years. I had no idea what I was in for when I joined as a sophomore! God gave me an amazing group of gals to laugh, cry, pray and play with … I could not have dreamed up a more abundant college experience for myself and most of that was due to how God used Sigma Phi Lambda and the gals I met through that organization in my life. I began to learn how to lead, how to pray, how to study the Word, how to live the abundant life. Phi Lamb was a catalyst to my walk with the Lord in college and I am thoroughly grateful for those years. I am so grateful, too, for the other gals who came alongside of me, challenged me and loved me well as we all experienced the ups and downs of college life together. My walk with the Lord is a dynamic and continual journey, and those few years in Phi Lamb were HUGE in spurring on my growth at such a vital time. God is good - all the time. All the time - God is good. - Rachel Wolters Shelton
There is nothing sweeter than the fellowship of Christian sisters. Phi Lamb served an amazing purpose in my life by offering me this great group of women to grow with and learn from. Oh yeah, and we had a lot of fun as well!!! I’ll always treasure my Phi Lamb experiences and I will continue to cherish and adore my friendships. - Katheryn Bell
Phi Lamb has filled a gap in my life that I never knew I had…..the friendships of Godly women. When Sigma Phi Lambda first started in 1988 I remember being exposed to women of different religious backgrounds from myself. It was eye opening for me and showed me how great the kingdom of God is. I have laughed, cried, feared, prayed, studied, sang, been silent, and learned from and with these other women. I never knew such friendship and still consider it one of my greatest joys. I remember retreats that turned into all night slumber parties. I remember parties with BYX where we danced for hours. I remember dorm prayer groups after lunch (those gave me the courage to pray out loud). I remember seeing my sisters on campus and feeling happy to know another person who I connected with and could trust. I remember doing the very first ever engagement circle and everyone screaming when I blew out the candle. I remember sorority picnics before Texas football games with our dates and parents. I remember performing the Carmen song “I still believe” at a party with Bonnie, Jennifer and Julie. Yikes! I remember initiations, weddings, couples showers, and baby showers. I am so thankful to God for allowing me to be a part of His wonderful plan. - Deanna Kotrla, Sigma Phi Lambda 1988
