Want to help teen girls grow closer to Jesus, but not sure how to lead the conversation? You don't have to have all the answers. You just have to be willing to make space for Him.

The teenage years bring big questions, growing friendships, and plenty of opportunities to discover who God created us to be. Gathering girls together to pray, share, and learn about their faith gives them a place to ask questions, grow in confidence, and encounter the love of Jesus.

Created as a companion to Gift for Teens // A Study on the Eucharist, this Leader Guide from Blessed is She helps you lead teen girls through a study of the greatest Gift we could ever receive: Jesus Himself in the Eucharist. With practical suggestions for structuring your gatherings and adapting the study for different ages, you'll have the support you need to create a welcoming space for prayer, honest conversation, and deeper friendship with Christ.

Whether you're leading a parish youth group, gathering a small group of friends, or mentoring teen girls in your community, this guide helps you make your time together meaningful and approachable.

Here's how this guide helps you lead:

• Sample gathering guides with two flexible approaches, whether your girls complete the study on their own or work through it together during your meetings

• A simple meeting outline with suggested timing for prayer, Scripture, testimonies, teaching, journaling, and conversation

• Practical tips for different ages to help you adapt the experience for younger teens, older teens, or a mixed-age group

• Guidance for meaningful discussion to encourage girls to share their reflections, ask questions, and support one another in faith

• Ideas for putting faith into practice with weekly activities that help girls live out what they're learning about the Eucharist

• Encouragement for building community through prayer partners and connection between gatherings

You don't have to be a youth ministry expert to make a difference in the lives of these girls. Your role is to create a joyful, encouraging space where they can encounter Jesus, grow in Eucharistic love, and learn to recognize Him as the answer to the deepest desires of their hearts.

Gather your girls. Grow in faith together. Discover the Gift of Jesus in the Eucharist.
