Have you noticed how much people talk about community in the blogosphere? Successful bloggers talk of building community. Satisfied readers talk of being part of a community. Others talk of longing to be part of a community. It's the same wherever you are--people want to belong. They long to know and be known. They want to love and be loved.
With all the talk of community, you might think there was no need for a new opportunity to build relationships. But that's just not true. We all talk about community, but many of us don't actually have one! There is a need, and as of today there's a new answer to that need.
Introducing. . . Sisters in Bloom!
Sisters in Bloom is a brand-new website. At its heart are 33 Christian writers, all of us very different, but all of us united in a desire to glorify God and to encourage other women. As our founder Denise Thompson states, "The writers of this site are ordinary women who seek an extraordinary God. . . . We are seeking a deeper walk with the Lord, and we're on a mission to encourage your heart as we share ours."
The 33 writers on the team are not the community, though--we're just the start of the community. Our goals? You'll find them in our tagline: "Growing together, connecting hearts, creating community." Our earnest prayer is that YOU will be a part of this community and that we'll all grow together.
I'm so excited about this new venture! I hope you'll join us on the journey!

How exciting!! I can't think of a blogger better suited for a venture like this. :) Congrats, Richella!
This is wonderful, Richella. I already encourage women in my little corner but there is nothing like the joining of His body for His glory. Looking forward to this. My blessings to all of you.
Oh how neat Richella! This seems like such an incredible opportunity to minister and it seems like such a perfect fit for your gifts. Can't wait to hear more about it! :-)
