    • Women's Ministry Mindful Walk: On October 24, seventeen women, led by Kari Shatzer and Lisa Griffin, gathered at Knoch Knolls Park for a beautiful morning Mindful Walk.


      • Lisa contributed the following reflection on the day: We enjoyed the day as we slowed down, explored God’s amazing creation in this changing fall season, and made space for Scripture, prayer, and reflection.


      Throughout our walk, we incorporated concepts of “forest bathing,” inviting everyone to open their senses to the natural world around us. As we paused to notice creation's beauty, we reflected on how God is always present through every season of change in our lives. These moments of slowing down helped us experience a greater sense of awe, gratitude, and peace.

      One Bible passage we reflected on was Psalm 85:11–12, which speaks of truth springing up from the earth and the blessings of God’s creation.


      I returned to Knoch Knolls early one morning to take pictures of the places and natural details that inspired awe during our walk. We didn't take any group pictures that day because we silence our phones and disconnect from electronics during our Mindful Walks, so we can be more present with the beauty around us. Returning to this special place gave me another opportunity to appreciate those moments and capture a few reminders of the beauty we shared. It was a meaningful morning and an opportunity to experience God’s creation together.

    • Labyrinth Update: After much hard work, the much-anticipated reflective space is complete! Stay tuned for the big reveal.
