Friends, I have been anxiously awaiting the chance to share the new @blessedisshe__ Advent study with you and here it is! I still cannot get over how stunning @ericatighe of @beaheartdesign’s art is and have been having so much fun seeing friends and family in each of the silhouettes. @shannonkevans‘s words are just as remarkable. I've only read the introduction and am floored by her wisdom and can't wait to begin on December 2nd. ⠀ .⠀ "We as women are image bearers.⠀ .⠀ The first chapter of Genesis tells us God created humankind in His own image. The Catholic Church teaches us that every human being bears the imago Dei, "image of God," which gifts us with inherent dignity and our lives with meaning...Our primary identity is as beloved image bearers of God, created by the One who calls us good and gave us the ability to know and love Him." (Excerpt from the introduction by Shannon)⠀ .⠀ I would love if you'd consider joining us in preparing for Emmanuel this year. Journals are available to order today and sell out every year! I've included an affiliate link in my profile which means that I get a portion of the sales through made through that link. If you have any questions, aren't sure what joining in on the fun would look like, or just want to chat, feel free to message me! Love you all! #bisadvent #bissisterhood #projectblessed #bethelight https://www.instagram.com/p/BojOybogY_M/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1n2lvirz5lnvh
