One of the most important things to us at Blessed is She (and in the Catholic Church) is the Word of God. Scripture nourishes our daily lives, so we read it to learn and listen to the sound of His voice every single day. Let's talk all about how we read the Word, why it matters, and what to do when it gets hard. This season of the Gathering Place is all about our Core Values at BIS, one of which is the Word!

Let's open up the conversation about our BODIES. What do we think about bodies? Whose voice do we hear when we look at our bodies? We're going to explore this topic of our bodies this month in our Member Community, and we'd love to do it alongside you. Not as women who have all the answers, but as women seeking truth WITH you.

Do you need a break?!? What would that look like if you were offered REST? What would you do? Or not do? It's important to remember that our Good Shepherd calls us to lie down in green pastures (Ps 23:2). Sometimes rest feels like a reward and sometimes rest feels out of reach. What does it usually take for you to feel rested? When's the last time you felt that way? We can't wait to chat with you! Join the convo Tuesday LIVE at 1pm ET

When life feels way too ordinary! Are you stuck in a rut and feeling like nothing is "going on" for you? Are you looking at what others are able to do and feeling a little left out or underwhelmed with your own life? It's safe to say we've all been tempted to think of our lives as "ordinary" and maybe even boring. Fear not, because there's good news, friends! In every second of every day, we can live an extraordinary life! Despite our circumstances or the major FOMO we get, the Lord shows up for us in our very ordinary days. How have you shaken this feeling off? We want to know! Join the convo LIVE every Tuesday at 1pm ET

Feeling overwhelmed by your to-do list? Feeling anxious about all the things on your plate? When was the last time you prayed?

​.... but I'm too busy! How many times have we found ourselves using our business as an excuse for why we can't do things? When you're greeted by a friend and asked how you're doing, is your answer along the lines of "I'm good, just busy.." ? You're not alone, friend. Being busy seems like a norm or standard for feeling productive. But at what expense? We want to take a sec from our busy lives to chat with you and invite you to *rest* How do you handle feeling overwhelmingly busy? Do you have boundaries that you've implemented so that being busy doesn't become your identity? We'd love to hear from you! Join the convo Tuesday at 1pm ET

It's easy to zone out or struggle with wandering thoughts (or even anxieties!) during Mass. Maybe you leave bored or tired, thinking: "Does God actually have anything to offer me in the Mass?"

He waits for you to show up completely as you are so He can grow in relationship with you — and we'll give you some tips so you can experience His love for yourself.
