Shalom! I'm Elissa.

It's so incredible to meet you. I've been praying for you, sis!

I've been a stay-at-home mom for over 11 years. For a long time, there was a stirring in my heart to create with Yeshua, Jesus, our Creator.

I loved my family and loved being a mom. But something was missing...

After praying and talking to Jesus and my husband for hours and hours (thanks, Stephen and Jesus, lol), My heart ached to pick up a paint brush and create again.

I was nervous. I NEEDED to listen to Holy Spirit, so I took that first step of obedience...and God did something extraordinary!

In January 2020, I started my own mobile paint party business… It was amazing! I loved it… until March of 2020. 😂

Things don't always go how you plan, but knowing that God would lead me to my next YES was all I needed.

Sis, what do you do when God gives you a revelation that He has already placed something inside of you?

Beloved.

I had to obey, but that meant slowing down enough to be still and hear Jesus.

Sometimes obedience looks like picking up the paintbrush again and saying YES when you don't have the paint.

And sometimes it looks like building something that can bless someone else.

That's what Beloved is about.

Healing. Identity. Creativity. Calling. Obedience. Kingdom impact.

I want to raise up an army of Jesus-loving artists and creatives—women who know they are daughters of the King and are ready to steward their Royal Assignment (aka what He's placed in your hands).

Women who create from a place of being deeply loved.

Women who build from love, joy, and obedience.

Women who understand that their gifts, their work, and even their resources can become a way to give and sow into what God is doing in the world.

"Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace…"

1 Peter 4:10

This has been a year in the making.

And I don't take it lightly that I get to do this.

It is an honor and a privilege to create with you.

If you're feeling that stirring, I'd love to talk and pray with you.
