Holly Borrasso- Bible Journaling

Bible Journaling- A Heart for Worship

I- ( Connie) have been blessed to participate
 in a wonderful new process
 for Bible Study and worship time.

Since September I (Connie) joined the
 Journaling Bible Community on Facebook-- 

 There were 35 members when I joined.
 Today at this posting there are:
 11,810 men and women from around the world.


 Featured here are the pages from a pastor's wife
 Journaling Bible
 in the Southeastern District-
 Holly Borrasso.
One year out of the seminary and into parish life.

She was featured on this blog post here-as a vicar's wife


They now serve Redeemer Lutheran Church
 in the Northern Region-
in Parkton, MD.


Holly uses a Journaling Bible
 made with space in the margins
 for notes, prayers, art notes, and other additions
 that might enhance her study time.
Holly has multiple Bible resources-
so if some of the text "is covered"-
that is fine.
This is a meditative art process in
God's Word.



Sometimes paint gets added.

or a stamp or washi tape or alphabet stickers


or maybe a simple tag collects the thoughts


Holly is experimenting with all sorts
 of processes and many places
 to bring this to ministry life-
her work with women and their families
 and Confirmation students.

The blessing has been
 to see all the ways that God
brings His Word to visual life.
His WORD is active, moving and alive.
And--- a visual image stays with us longer
 when we have created it 
with our own hands and our eyes
 store the visual in memory.


We give thanks for all the ways
 that Holly uses her creative gifts
 to help us see the life that God
 wants each of us to have abundantly.
