Seasons of Gratitude Journaling Series -- May

May 1, 2026
11:00 AM


Please join us for the second installment of our quarterly Gratitude Journaling Workshop. Timed perfectly for Mother’s Day, the theme of this workshop is Finding Gratitude in Your Season of Motherhood.

Led by local mom, DCA member, and creative writer Caroline Jennings, participants are invited to reflect on this season of motherhood with an open and grateful heart through introspective journaling prompts, group discussion, and dedicated writing time. Whether you are new to journaling or returning to an existing practice, this workshop provides a welcoming space to slow down, share, and honor your motherhood journey. Everyone will also take home a beautiful fresh flower stem, generously donated by The Eighth Acre, as a way to celebrate and honor our mothers.

Please bring your preferred writing materials.
