Here we count our blessings. Taking slips of paper, we write what we are thankful for...one by one. They are added to a small container. That collection of “blessings” is taken home and opened when we need reminders of all the ways God has been good and faithful.

Participants are reminded to bring their jars back with them to each retreat. They can open them, reread their “blessings”, and continue to add even more.

Suggested Supplies
Suggested Supplies
- Tablecloth
- Framed Prompt : Blessings / Blessings (black and white copy)
- A small jar for each participant
- Small slips of paper to write “blessings” on
- Pens
- Candles
- We have found that having a “sample” jar already filled with slips of paper can be helpful.
- Optional: Ribbon to tie around the tops of the jars
- Optional: Vase with flowers
Note: Potentially, purchasing jars for each participant could get quite expensive. We have found that spice jars from IKEA (sold in sets of four) have been absolutely perfect in both size and cost.
