Announcement

The Gratitude Jar-November Daily Journaling Challenge

posted on - October 15, 2025

Join us this month for daily gratitude journaling.  We will be using 2 ½ inch precut circles as journal pages and a small jar to hold them.  Prompts will also be posted on the Library’s Instagram and Facebook pages.

            The circles are used as journal pages.  Write your response to the day’s prompt on one side.  Please date the back of the circle and include any other information you’d like to keep track of, such as tracking a habit, your Wordle score, or even what the weather is for the day. Feel free to use colored pencils, watercolors, etc. to illustrate your circle.  When you complete your circle page, drop it into your jar.  At the end of the month punch a small hole in each circle and string them up in a window or save them in the jar and reread them once in a while.  Or, continue journaling throughout the year and collect 12 canning jars of gratitude!

Precut circles and jars are available to the first 20 people to register!
