May Habits and Holidays: Strawberries, Moms, and Lost Socks

May Habits and Holidays: Strawberries, Moms, and Lost Socks

It's no surprise, May is all about transitions! Small ones, like the ending of winter and spring weather, medium ones, like the ending of a school year, and larger ones, like graduations, which can feel like the ending of an era. 

This month is full of ways to engage with God and one another, and we hope you'll take a look at the list below, mark your calendars, and join us! 

We believe that marking these moments is one way we can slow ourselves down, drawing us into “the unforced rhythms of grace.” When we make space to notice the seasons around us, we often find ourselves engaging in the moment God has given us. 

Plus, this month, we're taking time to celebrate another GoodKind of Random Holiday—National Strawberry Picking Day!

Download the guide, grab your friends and family, and pick strawberries with us—either on May 20, or another day this month when the strawberries are ripe near you!
