Secret Sisters

A Ministry of the Alliance Women Frontporch Ministry

 

Once a year, all of the ladies of Lockport Alliance are invited to particpate...

 

You will each be given a ‘sister’ that you will have the blessing 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.  Remember that some requests may be confidential and should be kept private.

 

3. Make an effort to get to know your sister. Discretely 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, notes or small gifts of encouragement.

 

5. 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.

 

6. Keep it a secret! Don’t let anyone know whom you have. Leave your cards or notes on the secret sister table by the Coffee Connection when no one is around or have someone else deliver them.

 

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.
