Sat. April 15: Making Sacred Journals
Making Sacred Journals
Saturday, April 15
9:30am-11:30am
with Carolyn Stewart
$30 (includes supplies)
We all have an idea of what a journal is and where to buy them. So why make your own? When we choose to make a journal we are creating a special vessel that holds our personal story honoring our life’s journey. A Sacred Journal is where we can dive below the surface and explore the inner depths. Using simple bookmaking techniques and tools, we will construct our journals. No previous bookmaking experience is necessary. Materials will be provided along with some embellishments but feel free to bring embellishments that are personal to you (buttons, laces, ribbons, pictures, etc). Participants will leave with a journal made by their own hands, journaling ideas, and a feeling of accomplishment.

Come learn about this celebrated spiritual master and what he has in common with St. Francis! |
