As we encounter vivid story lines of female characters in the Bible, we can highlight these dynamic women on a Bible Quilt Journal page.

Anna

Anna, the only prophetess mentioned by name in the New Testament, was mentioned in just 3 verses in the 2nd chapter of Luke yet... her story is one of faithful service and prayer.

I wrote out the scripture passages on the left side of the template, then added my notes from a women's study group on the right side.

I continued with notes and reflections on the back side of the page.

Setting up your own BQ pages

This set of templates with generic female figures can help you get started on pages about Women of the Bible.

I've also made a set of tabs to use for many women named in the Bible.

Whether you're doing an independent reading, attending a Bible study focused on a character or a book of the Bible, these tabs can provide you with a quick way to categorize your BQ journal.

Attach these directly to your BQ page or use washi tape to add it to a page protector if you're using a 3-ring binder. For loose BQJ pages, I often slip them into page protectors until I determine which BQ journal they're going in. By placing them into a 3-ring binder, I have flexibility to move pages around until I've determined the sequence I'd like to use for these character summaries in my Bible Quilt Journal.

Another option is to use a Happy planner punch system and build your journal over time. These pictures show an example of printing templates onto colored card stock, then inserting them into a disc-bound journal setup.
