Emissary Pageants International Congress
Where Unshakeable Confidence, Sisterhood, Service, and Leadership come together!
Mail!!! Getting notes like these always warms my heart. Not only does it tell me I’m on the right path, but it also tells me that starting EPIC was worth all the blood, sweat and tears over the last three years. I love making dreams come true! I have so many plans for EPIC that most people can’t even fathom or see yet but being able to support girls that are enthusiastic about life, their platforms, and this wonderful sport… Goal achieved! Can’t wait for our third nationals and to continue getting to know the girls that are calling EPIC home. #makingadifferenceeveryday

✨ Titleholder Tuesday Spotlight ✨
Meet one of our incredible EPIC titleholders, Mary Ellen, Elite United States Emissary 2025, who truly embodies strength, curiosity, and adventure!
🐎 About Me:
I own a Quarter Horse named Dillon and also ride a horse named Paco. Horses are a huge part of my life, and I stay busy with a variety of equestrian activities. Beyond the barn, I’ve developed a deep passion for genealogical research, having traced my own family history back an amazing 30 generations! I also love to travel and explore historic places whenever I can.
🎗 My Platform & Community Service:
I am a breast and lymph cancer survivor, celebrating 3½ years. While I continue to face ongoing medical challenges from chemotherapy and radiation, I use my story to raise awareness, inspire resilience, and remind others that strength doesn’t stop when treatment ends.
🌟 My Advice for Anyone Considering the EPIC System:
Seize the opportunity! The EPIC System is an incredible experience and truly is a great activity for anyone, at any age. There’s a place for everyone here!
You can join EPIC in June at Nationals!

✨ PAGEANT TIP OF THE DAY! ✨
Your 2026 Content Starts NOW.
2026 is here 👀, and because your hair looks great today, you should absolutely grab your sister, queen, bestie, or mom and film THIS.
Why?
Because B-roll is the secret weapon of great social media — and this list works for every niche: pageantry, fitness, lifestyle, advocacy, business, and beyond.
🎥 The Quick B-Roll Shot List:
✔️ Putting on sunglasses
✔️ Walking down the street
✔️ Time-lapse of you cleaning something
✔️ Laughing
✔️ Opening the front door
✔️ Sipping your favorite drink
✔️ Getting in your car
✔️ Talking with a friend
✔️ Making something to eat
✔️ Typing aggressively on your laptop
✔️ Staring at the screen and closing your laptop
✔️ Sitting by a window with a drink
✔️ Writing in a notebook
✔️ Walking into a room with purpose
✔️ Looking left to right
📱 Pro Tip:
Take all of these clips and save them in a dedicated folder on your phone so they’re easy to find when you need content fast.
This one filming session can fuel weeks (or months!) of posts, reels, voiceovers, and storytelling.
Pageant queens plan ahead — and so does great content. 👑✨

🎄 A Christmas Message from EPIC Pageants 🎄
This Christmas season, we want to pause and say thank you.
EPIC Pageants was created to be more than a competition — it was built to be a community, a place where confidence is grown, voices are celebrated, and every contestant is seen, valued, and supported. Watching our EPIC family grow this year has been one of the greatest gifts we could receive.
To our contestants: thank you for your courage, your kindness, and your willingness to step into the spotlight and believe in yourself. You inspire us more than you know.
To our families, volunteers, judges, and supporters: thank you for the countless hours, encouragement, and love you pour into this journey. EPIC would not be possible without you.
As you celebrate Christmas, we hope your days are filled with peace, your homes with joy, and your hearts with hope. May this season remind you of your worth, your strength, and the incredible light you bring into the world.
From our EPIC family to yours —
🎄 Merry Christmas, and may the New Year bring even more growth, purpose, and EPIC moments. 🎄
With love and gratitude,
EPIC Pageants ❤️
Love seeing our girls reactions to the packages we send. Thanks Bella for this video. ❤️
Props to the City of Newberry Florida! Farron, Ms Florida Emissary, enjoyed the parade so much. Thank you so much for allowing her to participate! She reports, “all the floats were so awesome! And whoever was in the Gingerbread Man costume you had her cracking up!” 😂 She loved it! Thank you!🥰
