SECRET SISTERS
Back to VVBC
Home
Welcome to our Secret Sister Program. All of the ladies of the church are invited to participate in this ministry of caring and sharing with other sisters in Christ. You will
each be given a ‘sister’ that you will need to pray for and encourage. It is wonderful to
have someone that prays for you daily and is there to send you an encouraging note
from time to time. We’ll be keeping our ‘sister’s a secret; so don’t let anyone know
who you have. Of course it may be fun for you to guess as we go along. At the end of
the program year, we will reveal our ‘sisters’.
What are Your Responsibilities if you participate in the Secret Sisters
program?
1. Know that it is a commitment. The lady you are assigned will be expecting you
to uphold her in your prayers and she should be able to rely on you for
encouragement.
2. Pray daily for your sister. Get to know her needs and her family’s needs so that
you may pray specifically for them.
3. Make an effort to get to know your sister. Discover the likes and dislikes of
your sister. Know her favorites. Find out all about her.
4. Be an encouragement to your sister. Send her cards or notes of
encouragement.
4. Remember your sister on her special occasions. Don’t forget to send
cards for her birthday and anniversary or special landmarks in your sister’s life.
5. Keep it a secret! Don’t let anyone know whom you have. Leave your cards
or notes when no one is around or have someone else deliver them.
6. If you are unable to continue, contact the women’s ministry leader. If
you find you are unable to continue participating in the Secret Sister program,
let someone know so another ‘sister’ can be found for the lady you were
assigned.
Guidelines.
No purchased gift giving other than Birthday and Christmas Reveal. Food
gifts, candy, and homemade goodies are acceptable.
Make sure you contact your sister by means of a note or card at least once a
month.
Above all, have fun and enjoy getting to know your sisters! You can be the
Instrument that God has placed in this person’s life to give them the
encouragement they need right when they need it. “A word spoken in due
season, how good it is!” Proverbs 15:23. Praying daily for your sister will
strengthen you, and the rewards can be immeasurable.
