HEY FRIEND, WELCOME TO BLESSED IS SHE
We are a sisterhood of women who desire two things: prayer & community. And we are so excited you’re along for the ride.
And blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken to her by the Lord.

BIS CORE VALUES
Joyful.
To be joyful is to live a life fueled by the Holy Spirit. To let the outpouring of His Spirit well up in us so that all that pours out is joy, in every single thing we do—from writing and praying with Scripture for our daily emails, preparing the room for an event, to editing a book for our devotionals.
Humble.
To live a life of humility is to take the posture of Our Lord Jesus Christ Himself. In humility, He bent low to serve those who would in the future betray Him or leave Him. He lived a life of total service to every person, and we want to live a life in obedience to that humility.
Magnanimous.
Magnanimity is a virtue with which one strives for greatness of soul. As Dr. Edward Sri explains, “This is the virtue by which man pursues what is great and honorable in his life, even if it is difficult.” We strive to pursue a life dedicated to glorifying the greatness of God.
Purity of heart.
First and foremost, our relationship with the Lord is our primary call and desire. We long to be in union with Him through prayer and the Sacraments. We long to be purified by Him Who is Love and Mercy Himself. We long to be made new by Him every single day.
Make disciples who make disciples.
We desire to be women who walk with others: who are so filled with God’s love that it pours out of every piece of our being. We actively choose to seek out, mentor, and share the love of Our Lord with each and every person we meet. It is our baptismal call, and we must choose it daily.
Missional.
The Blessed is She mission is not to be insulated in itself. The point of BIS, from its daily email to its liturgical planner to its varied experiences is to have a missional heart: one that seeks the lost (within ourselves as well as outside) and to surrender it to Christ Himself.
