Could A Tanning Salon Be A Ministry? Continued...

       "Encourage, lift and strengthen one another.  For the positive energy spread to one will be felt. For we are connected, one and all"-Deborah Day.  Pam has faithful customers that come to her shop to tan.  She had customers that followed her from "Atlantic Cove", she has customers that travel from Greenville, Pumpkintown, Anderson, and her furthest customer is from Landrum.  I asked Janina Porter from Landrum why does she choose Pam's tanning salon when there are others along the way? She said, "I love Pam, she makes you feel good when you come to her salon, she has good prices, she's sweet, nice and friendly.  I would come a long way out of my way to get that kind of atmosphere."  I asked Pam why does she think she has such dedicated customers?  She said, "I'm good to them, I have clean beds, I keep the bulbs changed, I give fair prices to everybody, and I treat everybody the way I want to be treated."  When you enter "Elite Tanning" you're greeted with bright colors, sweet aromas, and  Pam Woody; who loves the Lord, loves church, loves her family, loves life, and loves people.  God tells us in his word, "By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another"-John 13:35.  Pam said that if someone was to come into her shop and offer to buy it that she would sale it because she would know that the Lord is telling her that her time at "Elite Tanning" is over.  Pam puts all her trust in the Lord to keep the shop in business.  Pam is dedicated to Christ and she knows that he will place her where he needs her.


  What Pam Wants You To Know About Tanning:

• It's not the tanning that causes cancer; it's the burning that you think you have to have from tanning in tanning beds or outside that causes it.  You have to be smart about it, you have to have moderation, you can't think, "I'm going to get dark fast".
• Tanning is good for depression.
• You get Vitamin D from tanning.
• You have to moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Dry skin doesn't tan at all.
• The tanning lotion you use is so important, Wal-Mart lotions don't work because they use Vaseline.  The Vaseline stops the rays from getting to the skin.  You really need to use a good salon lotion.  You are going to put $15-18 in a lotion, it needs to be a good lotion. Pam offers all kinds of lotions in her shop ranging from different prices.
