Pieces of Presence

  • St. Andrew's UMC 1901 Archdale Drive Charlotte, North Carolina, 28210 United States (map)

A Faith & Creativity Workshop for Reflection, Rest, and Spiritual Renewal

Slow down. Pay attention. Create with intention.

Life moves quickly. Between work, family, responsibilities, and constant noise, it can be difficult to notice where God is present in our everyday lives. Pieces of Presence is an invitation to step away from the hurry and spend a few intentional hours reconnecting with God, yourself, and your own creativity.

Through guided reflection, Scripture, quiet practices, and a simple hands-on creative project, you'll be invited to explore your spiritual journey in a fresh way. This isn't about making perfect art or having artistic talent. It's about creating space to listen, notice, and respond to God's presence through the creative process.

Whether you're longing for a meaningful Saturday morning, looking for a different way to engage your faith, or simply craving space to breathe, you'll leave feeling more grounded, refreshed, and connected.

What to Expect

During this two-hour workshop, you'll experience:

  • Guided spiritual reflections

  • Scripture and contemplative practices

  • A creative art experience (no artistic experience required)

  • Quiet time for personal reflection and journaling

  • Meaningful conversation in a welcoming community

  • Light refreshments

Everything you need is provided.
