Generally speaking, secret sister programs invite women to secretly encourage another woman in their church. Usually, one person assigns the sisters and keeps the list a secret for the duration of the program. Typically, these programs are scheduled for a year, sometimes less, with a celebration and reveal party at the end of the program. Women may send cards, pray for their secret sisters, and often give them small gifts. Many churches ask women to fill out a form about their favorite things so they can be surprised with things they’ll enjoy. The purpose given is often building relationships and community.

There’s no clear villain who must be defeated or a world to save beyond the personal one. This is an intimate visit into the complicated lives of people who all seem to have everything in one definition of “everything” or another, when the truth shows they have flaws and weaknesses, that below perfection is doubt and conflict, but there is also love.If you’ve read my book, Rethinking Women’s Ministry, you may recall I shared about my failure to properly press pause on the secret sister program in the church I served in. You’ll find the story in the chapter titled, Making Changes and Managing Sacred Cows. My concerns with secret sister programs are not off the cuff. This is something I’ve spent years thinking about… The benefit you get from being a member of a group that does secret sister is an exchange gift. Apart from that, there are several additional benefits, namely that you can decide to get to know new people or what are commonly known as new relationships. Therefore, it would be better if, on Facebook, members of the secret group are not dominated by people who know each other.
