This Sunday, we’re continuing our series on Noticing God, and this week we’re exploring the most challenging – yet rewarding place to encounter the Divine. It’s a practice that moves us beyond simple observation and into a way of living that can change the very fabric of how we interact with the world around us.

If you’ve been looking for a way to bridge the gap between your spiritual life and your daily reality, this is for you. We’re unpacking a practice that may feel impossible at first, but is perhaps the most subversive thing you can do for your soul. And it might be the very medicine our fractured world is waiting for.

This week, we are excited to welcome TK and Nikki from Future of Africa to come and share with us. Future of Africa has been one of our partners for many years, and are continuing as our Global Partner as part of our Peace in Action Team.

TK, Nikki and their family live and work in Ghana, but are here in Waterloo visiting in June. We are looking forward to hearing more about their passion and vision for the work of Future of Africa, as well as ways that we can continue to pray for and support them, both as a family and as an organization.

As time goes on we can sometimes feel as if we have been missing God in our day to day. You may have learned practices you were told would guarantee a happy and flourishing spiritual life, but these practices now feel distant or simply never served you well. In our upcoming summer series “Noticing God” we will explore practices which have benefitted members of our community as they search for, live alongside, and experience the divine. Together we seek to offer hope, and invitation to each other as we explore ways of noticing God in our midst.

This week, we’ll kick off the series with an introduction to the theme.
