Feburary 2025 | Calendars

Winter has officially settled in where we live. It's currently snowing the big, fluffy flakes that are so beautiful to watch - as long as you can from the comfort of your own home. The problem with winter is that sometimes it seems to drag on forever and it feels like spring may never come again. Perhaps that's why we look to a groundhog to bring us hope this month.

We hope you are finding JOY in your winter. Perhaps you find it in a huge smile on a student's face, in an unexpected hug, or in a fresh cup of coffee that you actually get to drink while it's still hot. EnJOY these moments, Leader, because it's these little moments that, when added together, bring JOY. And we know, all too well, that sometimes that JOY is hard to find. 

To help you find JOY this February, we're offering you a reason to celebrate every day with activity tie-ins and a suggested schedule for daily meeting with Jesus: the unfailing source of lasting JOY.

Our February 2025 offerings:


February 2025 Ideas for EVERY Day


Add "Would you rather..." questions into your daily holiday festivities this February to welcome even more JOY. Or get it (for free!) at our TPT store.

Also, consider sampling our JOY for Today posts, where we celebrate selected days throughout the year by offering facts, connections, scripture, quotes, and activity suggestions. Check out these posts for upcoming February holidays:

February 2025 Growth for Today Calendar

This year, we're committed to grow deeper in our relationship with Jesus by learning more about Him. To achieve that end, we're studying the gospels and would love it if you'd join us! We suggest daily activities and post our Wolfe Notes in the "Faith Food" tab as we finish them. Our notes offer a glimpse at our understanding of the text, which we know is fallible and incomplete. We encourage you to undertake the activities on your own so you can enrich your own understanding of the text.

In February, we will study Matthew 11-18.

BLANK 2025 Calendars

Both our Idea for Every Day and Growth for Today calendars include a blank calendar for your convenience. Use it to pace your own activities for the month or for personal use. Here are the featured quotes:

February 2025 Featured Verse


As the cold continues into February, we hope your hearts warm ever more to the others in your life. You were made to serve; do it beautifully. For the times you feel downtrodden, never forget that you serve a God who serves you. Ask Him for what you need to get through today, through this moment, and know that He's bending down to listen (Psalm 116:2).

Growing with You,

World Turtle Day | JOY for Today

Image
After watching my turtle recover from his tumble down the stairs yesterday (he's alright), I realized this is what turtles do: they take risks. They don't know what's at the bottom of that fall, but they trust their shell to protect them. I wonder, what shell protects 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. Wolfe Stew Connects  Musings by the Mrs. Bible Verses and Quotes  Inspired by turtles. Activity Suggestions   Care, costumes, reading, crafting, games, habitats, and maps.
