August 2022 Calendars | Printable and Holiday Options

August is the frantic rush of preparation, anxiety, and anticipation as our learners return to school and we work hard to start the year off right. We're offering some back-to-school advice and activities in this Planner Day post. However, we think the best advice we can offer is - relax. You got this! You really do. Take it moment by moment and find joy there; it's waiting for you.

Here's what we're offering on the August 2022 Wolfe Stew menu:

August 2022 Growth for Today Calendar

This "Growth for Today" calendar is new for 2022! All of us are "works in progress" and we believe God-centered growth is essential to life. In 2022 we're committing to the faith fight by using these calendars with daily activities to focus on a monthly theme. Throughout the year we're hoping to grow stronger in defining what we believe in and in learning how to effectively fight for it. August is about prayer.

August 2022 Inspiration

"So when I fight, I fight on my knees with my hands lifted high, Oh God, this battle belongs to you." - Phil Wickham 

"When you're weary, feeling small, when tears are in your eyes, I'll dry them all. I'm on your side." - Simon & Garfunkel

 

Prayer is your greatest weapon. Wielding it properly requires commitment. Many people think there is a "right way" to pray and shy away from it because they might do it "wrong." The truth: prayer is spending time with God, seeking Him, inviting Him into what you do, acknowledging His presence, and sharing with Him the desires of your heart. Prayer is unique to every person because it develops based on your relationship with God. There is no "magic formula" to prayer, but as you grow with God, so too will your prayer life. Our prayer is that this month you find yourself reinvigorated to pray, to seek that sacred time in the presence of your Savior, and to consider new perspectives of prayer.

Fighting the Good Fight with You,

Does your shell of protection provide joy and confidence or fear and isolation?  Meet Our Turtle: Waldo World Turtle Day Stops: Did You Know...   Two we knew; three we didn't.
