✨ Year-End Craft – December 31, 2025

“Stones of Remembrance & Hope” 

Theme:Honoring what God has done and trusting Him with what’s ahead.

This craft is deeply biblical, reflective, and powerful — a quiet way to mark the end of the year with God.

❤️ What You’ll Need:

• 2 smooth stones per person (river rocks or flat pebbles)

• Paint pens or permanent markers (white, gold, or black)

• Small bowl, basket, or tray

• Optional:

  • Candle

  • Scripture card

  • Twine label

  • Marker with metallic ink

✨ Directions:

1. The “Remembrance” Stone

On the first stone, write:

• One word, phrase, or date that represents how God carried you through 2025

Examples:

• “Faithful”

• “Healed”

• “Provision”

• “Strength”

• “Answered”

• “Still Standing”

Hold the stone and thank God specifically for what He did this year.

2. The “Hope” Stone

On the second stone, write:

• One word or prayer you’re trusting God with for 2026

Examples:

• “Peace”

• “Rest”

• “Direction”

• “Healing”

• “Trust”

• “New Beginnings”

Pray over this stone, releasing the future into God’s hands.

3. Create the Display

Place both stones together in a small bowl or tray.Add a candle if desired and light it as you pray.

You may label the bowl:“The Lord Has Been Faithful – 2025”

4. Keep as a Marker

• Keep the stones visible through January

• Revisit them throughout the year

• Add a new pair each year as a growing testimony

✝️ Faith Reflection:

Joshua 4:7 (KJV)“These stones shall be for a memorial unto the children of Israel for ever.”

God instructed His people to mark His faithfulness, so it would never be forgotten — even in future generations.

🌿 Closing Thought for 2025

You didn’t just survive this year.You were carried.

And the same God who walked you through 2025is already waiting for you in 2026.
