Blessing Friday

"Blessing Friday," a revolutionary holiday that takes place the Friday after Thanksgiving, created by the visionary Dr. Laurence Brock in November 2019.

In a world often overshadowed by the frenzy of Black Friday commercialism, Blessing Friday emerges as a sacred pause—a day designed to infuse the act of Holiday shopping with profound spirituality and meaningful intentions.

Dr. Brock, recognizing the need for a collective shift in the consumerist landscape, envisioned Blessing Friday as a transformative experience. On this special day, shoppers embark on a journey that transcends the mere exchange of material goods, delving into the realms of blessings, gratitude, and mindfulness.

Participants are invited to approach the day with a renewed sense of purpose, acknowledging the potential for every purchase to be a source of blessing for both the giver and the receiver. Dr. Brock's vision encourages us to see the act of giving not as a transaction but as a sacred opportunity to bestow blessings upon others.

Transforming our inherent commercial inclinations to become a wellspring and foundation of spiritual fortitude and purpose. Transmuting holiday shopping into a source of blessings.

Each purchase becomes an intentional act, a way to share blessings with both the artisan and the recipient.

At the heart of Blessing Friday stands the "Blessing Well," a symbolic focal point where shoppers can offer written blessings, intentions and/or expressions of gratitude. Participants drop their notes into the well, contributing to a collective energy of positivity and goodwill that ripples throughout the day and the holiday season. The Blessing Well becomes a visual representation of the shared intention to infuse the holiday season with blessings.

Dr. Brock's vision challenges the traditional narrative of consumerism, inviting us to embrace a more profound understanding of generosity—one that extends beyond material possessions and touches the very soul of giving.

Blessing Friday, born out of a desire to redefine the holiday shopping experience, stands as a beacon of conscious living and spirituality. Dr. Laurence Brock's vision inspires us to make every purchase a source of blessings, turning the act of giving into a transformative and soul-enriching experience. This holiday season, let Blessing Friday illuminate our hearts and minds, fostering a spirit of generosity, gratitude and shared blessings for all. Blessing Friday Facebook group
