The original course is designed for weekly study (5, 2-hour sessions) or a Friday night/full Saturday. However, I have adapted the information into a slightly shorter format for the younger girls which can be completed in 4-5 hours.

MAIDENS BY HIS DESIGN COURSE:
As parents prepare their older children for adolescence, one important component of this parental teaching is a mother’s instruction of her coming-of-age daughter about her cycle. Most parents simply give their children the biological “facts” about menstruation. But suppose you could introduce your daughter to this event in the context of God’s beautiful design? Home schooling mother, owner of Blessing God’s Way, and doula/birth assistant, Doran Richards, has designed a thoughtful and modest course that mothers and daughters can attend together in order to learn about this cycle for their bodies, about proper nourishment during their cycle, about learning to cultivate a joyful spirit of prayer and anticipation during their cycle.
What is particularly unique about this course is Mrs. Richard’s emphasis on the goodness and beauty of something that our culture thinks is merely a “pain in the neck” or an unfair burden on women: menstruation. She urges women to not give into these sad attitudes but to approach the onset of menstruation as an opportunity to get to know and understand your body and your health more deeply, and to give thanks to God for how you are made. Menstruation should not be seen as a curse or a burden, but as a season of life given to women by God our Father as a blessing.
“Maidenhood is a special time. It is an amazing process; so intricate that only God could have created such a process. I am in awe every time I think of it. You will be, as well, once you finish this course, if you are not already.”
