Welcome to Beautiful Life Community

About the Beautiful Life Community

Welcome, Beautiful!

We are so delighted to welcome you to our brand new Beautiful Life Community. Here we will encourage one another along our homeschooling and life journeys. Plus, provide some joy-filled outlets to refresh and refill your "cup" so that you will be a greater blessing to your family and friends.

We understand that connection is vital—especially in today's culture. For this reason, we (Lara Molettiere and Alisha Gratehouse) have curated this place to nourish your spirits, nurture your souls, and cultivate your creativity. But especially, to help you connect with like-minded Christian women. 

We delight in bringing truth, goodness and beauty into our homes on a daily basis and are thrilled to begin sharing our hearts and gifts with you!

We Have a Generous Feast for You Each Month 

We have purposely curated beautiful opportunities for you to enjoy each month. We believe they will enhance your life and fill your soul, especially as you intentionally connect with other women.

Here are a few of the groups you’ll be able to participate in as a member of the Beautiful Life Community:

• Beautiful Life Community: Engage directly with other homeschooling moms, providing and receiving encouragement and creative ideas.
• Book Chats for Moms: Year-long and quarterly book club discussions. 
• Creative Flow: Do you have a craft project you want to work on? Want to practice your painting skills? Do you need some accountability or a "gentle nudge" to begin writing your book? Bring your projects and dreams and let’s work on them together in a virtual room (quiet space).
• Sewing Circle: A relaxing time among a circle of friends, creating and chatting about homeschool and life.
• Virtual Paint Parties: Give yourself the occasional treat of unwinding, de-stressing, and playing with paint for an hour or so with other moms just like you. Our virtual paint parties will be held here.
• Live Community Events: From Q&As, guest speakers, workshops, prayer times, and more—you can immerse yourself in our community as often as you like. These events will help you get to know others and form lasting friendships and connections.
• Homeschooling Success Stories: Hear success stories from moms who managed to establish a balance between homeschooling and personal growth. Understand their journeys and gather some inspiration. The benefit of this activity is motivation and a deeper understanding of the homeschooling experience.

We've Got FUN Things in the Works for Your Kids & Teens Too:

• Nature Club: A simplified club to inspire and encourage your kids and teens to get out and observe the beauty of God's creation. We'll provide the monthly theme, nature walk prompts, activities, art journaling lesson, and nature crafts or projects! 
• Literature Club: Let your kids and teens immerse themselves into imaginary worlds and adventures in these book clubs (that will also count as Language Arts credits)!
• Tea Time Tuesdays: Once a month gatherings for kids and teens to don their "Sunday best" or join us in dressing up as characters from books or in the fashions of the era in which the author or poet lived.
• Keepers of the Faith & Contenders for the Faith: (Coming Soon!) A monthly club where kids and teens can earn badges/points for Bible reading, memorization, homemaking and life skills, baking, handicrafts, art, nature, service, outdoors, health & fitness, literature, and MUCH more!

We cannot wait to have you join us!
