Are you looking for a new way to deepen your faith journey or for a deeper connection to God and others? Do you need something different to anchor you to your faith?
Discover a community that goes beyond surface connections.
Join a cohort grounded in spiritual practice—a different way to gather where there's nothing to do but show up.

One way we hope to live into being Synod together is gathering those who serve on councils or boards of ministries for a monthly check-in with each other.

When I meet with a group of people in the NWIM Synod—whether it is a group of deacons and pastors, a council, call committee, or any other group—more often than not I start that meeting with a spiritual practice called “Dwelling in the Word.” This exercise, which includes prayer, hearing a scripture passage read twice, sharing curiosities and where attentions lie, and wondering together what God might be up to has a way grounding whatever conversation comes next in God’s tender mercy.
