On May 25, 2025, the fandom received devastating news that #WarriorNun executive producer, Dean English, had passed away. #HaloBearers submitted messages online and for this tribute which we hope brings a little comfort "IN THIS LIFE OR THE NEXT". tinyurl.com/DeanTribute

Tribute form to honor Dean English, Executive Producer of #WarriorNun. A submissions form to send in a note, memory, tweet link, photo, audio, video or just leave a message of comfort for his family has been set up for all. The deadline is Friday, May 30. tinyurl.com/DeanTribute

I’m shocked and heartbroken about the news about Dean English. An unexpected friendship developed between us during the campaign to save #WarriorNun. Even when everything fell apart we stayed in touch every couple of months.

Not only did Sarah Walker receive the #Thrilljoy Ava Silva but there were also several items from others #HaloBearers included to show the love we have for #WarriorNun. 💙💙💙

The “lesbian family” sat in the front row during Catholic mass in Tennessee & watched their son be welcomed to his first communion with happiness, peace & joy. Sometimes activism in just being present can lead to small but powerful change.

❕New #WarriorNun Article❕ “During a December 2023 edition of The OCS Newsletter, fans were offered some insights from Barry” “…("Ava was gonna be the bad guy"), and reminded fans to not give up on having a voice on the franchise.” Full interview link: tinyurl.com/OCSSimon

Evidently, it’s #Portfolioday on social media. The fandom would love to see our amazing #WarriorNun artists greatest hits. Plus, it’s a reminder to #HaloBearers that most of them still do commissions.

Final GoFundMe update: All donations were transferred and Eva has official moved into her new apartment. 🔥Sincerely grateful to members of the #WarriorNun fandom for stepped in to make this possible. Thank you to each person involved.

The first #Thrilljoy @ThrilljoyCo Ava Silva PIX! overseas special delivery has arrived. Kai Fung Rieck just posted his updated display case on IG. Look at all those #WarriorNun gifts from different members of the fandom. 🔥🔥🔥

This song is for the innocent, the children, animals, people who don't feel heard or seen, and all who are oppressed. Happy #TransDayOfVisibility "Tooth and Nail" co-written and produced by Johnny Collier: youtu.be/ZmVz1g46rSs?...

Release day alert for Ames @mynameisames.bsky.social new song 'tooth and nail'. "If I try and fail then I’ll die on your hill until they ring that bell oh I’ll fight tooth and nail I will fight like hell oh I’ll fight tooth and nail" It would make a great #WarriorNun #Avatice edit. 🔥

Any #WarriorNun fan going to #WonderCon in California this weekend? We need someone to go by #Thrilljoy @thrilljoyco.bsky.social and ask Brian if they are going to release the Ava Silva MEGA PIX! 🙏

Turns out @phan1.bsky.social received an even bigger gift from Sarah Walker today. 🤣 #WarriorNun #SaveWarriorNun

Although @phan1.bsky.social never wins at giveaways, she is always helping the #WarriorNun fandom with donations, prizes, and content. Today, we celebrate her and the impact she has had on so many. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PHAN! 🎉💙🥳

It was a true honor to put together this blog post about Sister Kayla with the help from members of the #WarriorNun fandom. I was also able to meet her in Chicago last month and gift this #Thrilljoy Ava Silva PIX! as a thank you for everything she has done to keep the fandom going. 💙

my song 'tooth and nail' will be out in a few weeks on all streaming platforms. With all the darkness in the world, compassion fatigue is real, as is the feeling of not being/doing enough. This song is for everyone (and everything) suffering when thoughts, prayers, and vigils aren’t enough.

The #WarriorNun fandom is still giving. @agnesszalkowska.bsky.social passed on her prize because she wanted another #HaloBearer to win. Then @ilikewarriornun.bsky.social won her donated prize which she passed on. Google Gemini picked Nina. 🎉 Still waiting on other winners to contact me.

💙Thank you #WarriorNun Fandom💙 For sharing and donating, you not only covered Eva's new apartment deposit but provided her 1st month's rent as well. I'm sincerely grateful to this fandom who came together to help another fellow #HaloBearer in need. 🙏

Sending thoughts and prayers to Dolly Parton for the loss of her husband of almost 60 years, Carl. 🙏 Although, his support was behind the scenes, in 1996, Dolly said she was “dragging him kicking and screaming into the next 50 years. Wish us luck."

For the Global #WarriorNun fans aka #HaloBearer, do not forget that www.warriornun.com is still up and @ocsnewsletter.bsky.social's Youtube account is still live and kicking if you wish to watch Warrior Nun-related videos. 😁

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

💙Thank you #WarriorNun Fandom💙 For sharing and donating, you have covered Eva's apartment deposit and 1st month's rent. Individual GoFundMe emails were sent to unknown anonymous donors today, asking to contact me with your social media handle for the drawing and group thank you.

All women and girls, including transgender women and girls, should be welcome to play sports if they want, make decisions about their own bodies, be hired for jobs they are qualified for, and be free from lawless attacks by elected officials.

REPRESENTATION MATTERS! Today, the #WarriorNun fandom is helping to trend #SaveQueerStories by adding it to each post. Everyone needs to see themselves represented in media. But continuing to cancel our stories 2x faster is detrimental to each of us. It’s time for the industry to do better!

In Nick Bythrow’s recent blog post, he shared his story and asked the fandom ‘What Does Our #WarriorNun Mean to You?’ The OCS Newsletter is grateful to the nine courageous #HaloBearers who took the time and energy to share their stories. www.warriornun.com/blog/wnmeaning2
