1 hope SHELOVESMAGAZINE { } a global community of women who love
2 This month, many SheLovelys followed Julie Fisk s lead and participated in a different kind of Christmas countdown. STOP Advent Acts of Kindness swept through our Facebook and Twitter pages. One #shelovesadvent post especially warmed THE SILENCE our hearts. Our wonderful Facebook Manager, Daniela, wanted to bless a fellow SheLovely, Michaela Evanow. { Read about Michaela HERE. }
3 DID YOU SEE THIS? Amy Rasmussen Buckley is opening the doors wide for women to speak out against abuse by launching the sheloves stop the silence initiative. And her introductory post had more than 2,000 Shares. WOW! Things are happening, friends. We are so grateful to have Amy on our SheLoves team. Read Amy s post HERE.
4 ALL of this BECAUSE OF A connection over at SHELOVES DO YOU REMEMBER when SHERRY NARON BLOGGED FOR US ABOUT HELPING GIRLS IN INDIA THROUGH RESCUE PINK? { READ IT HERE } WELL, FAITH BOULWARE IN OKLAHOMA LOVED WHAT SHERRY WAS DOING AND ASKED HOW SHE COULD HELP. FROM SHERRY: One day in October I got a message from Faith. She said she could not get Rescue Pink off her mind. I didn t really have anything I could think of that she could do. But I remembered how I used to be that same girl, so even though I didn t have much to do at the moment, but I told her that I wanted her to start building a core team there in Oklahoma that had a passion for Rescue Pink. Then when we started doing fundraisers here in TX, her team could run some of them simultaneously there in OK.
5 Less than 24 hours later, my phone starts going crazy with notifications of likes to the Rescue Pink Facebook page. They were ALL from OK well over 50 likes! Fifty people can do a lot to help girls in India. I firmly believe Faith will be an integral part of Rescue Pink s involvement in the OK area. I m excited to see what s next with her. SHERRY All of this because of a connection over at SheLoves. FROM FAITH: I am hoping to go to India this year with Rescue Pink... I would not have been able to take that leap of faith without SheLoves. Brings tears to my eyes thinking about it. God is so good. FAITH
6 We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope. Martin Luther King, JR.
7 Did you know we have more than ONE South African sister on our SheLoves team? Meet Rose Woller. She keeps us organized and asks questions like, Have we set goals? and What is your timeline for that project? We definitely need her muscle under our creative wings to help us fly. { Applause is totally acceptable. }
8 PRISONER OF HOPE SIKI DLANGA I am drunk with hope I refuse to sober up I am pregnant with possibility I refuse to abort I have planted this good seed I will not dig it out I am waiting in anticipation To hold my good promise And I am drunk with hope. { Read Aliyah Jacob s post about Siki HERE. }

13 When I wrote about changing my last name earlier this month, I had no idea how much love was going to pour through the comments. Tina suggested a celebration and cake. Then Anne-Marie decided it needed to happen. She asked me to meet up with her on my way north the our editorial meeting last weekend and she gave me this beautiful and DELICIOUS cake. I am blown away by the way this community loves me. ~ Sarah joslyn
14 In case you missed it... Our friend Laura Shook shared a powerful story of hope. Sixty-eight women released from debtors prison in Burundi with the help of a church in Texas. { Read Laura s post HERE. }
15 The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me, for the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to comfort the brokenhearted and to proclaim that captives will be released and prisoners will be freed. Isaiah 61:1

17 Wherever we live, wherever we hang our hats and unpack our boxes is home for me, because Home resides in the plan God designed me for. Home isn t a place anymore, it s a life lived with hope and purpose. { Read bev s link-up post here. } we link-ups we link-ups we link-ups
18 we link-ups we link-ups we link-ups Dear Infertility, You chased me for years. Every 28 days you chipped away my hope by revealing that one lonely line at the end of a plastic stick. No matter how hard I prayed, no matter which way I closely examined that stupid stick, you defeated me each month. { Read daniela s link-up post here }
19 Everything is welcome, each piece necessary. For what we build is a glory. A crazy quilt of pattern and plain, a castle keep built on strength and also on weakness. These walls will withstand the wildest of winds, the roof will shelter and keep us. Come with me now, let s dig in and do this. We ll whistle while we work, and let the chips fall where they may. For this is the house that hope builds, the place where everyone belongs. { Read Diana s link-up post here. } we link-ups we link-ups we link-ups
20 Spalding Spinner, can you do this because hope courses wild and right in your veins? Are you like the caged bird that sings his liberation song? Have you accessed your freedom from within the cage of your brown skin and that s why you ignore our judgy eyes? I wanna be brave like you, Spalding Spinner! I wanna be brave like you. Because your bravery gives me hope. { Read OSHETA S link-up post HERE }
