This week at Sacred Space we're talking about hope. In the run up to Christmas, how might we reimagine our rhythms and practices so we're more attentive to the signs of hope all around us?

Come along at 7pm on Wednesday at to join us, we'd love to see you there for discussion, reflection, food, and friendship.

Advent, the season running up to Christmas, is a time for us to search out hope in darkness. What signs of hope are you noticing at the moment? Kindness from friends or strangers, a carol heard in the street, a star shining brightly in the sky.

This Advent, let's make this time of the year about hope, rather than panicking about presents or plans. Search for hope in all the places you find yourself...

Mahatma Gandhi famously said 'honest disagreement is often a good sign' - yet so many of us avoid conflict with others. This week at Sacred Space we'll be thinking about the ways that disagreement intersects with faith, and how we might navigate conflict well. We'd love to see you on Wednesday at 7pm for discussion, reflection, food... and your weekly dose of sacred space.

The journey of life isn't easy, is it?

Yesterday at Sacred Space we looked at crossing divides and examining our baggage. Next week we're looking at navigating conflict and difficult conversations.

We're not afraid to dive into the deep and meaningful here at Sacred Space. Sometimes we need to talk about the tough stuff in life.

Come along on Wednesday evenings to join the conversation.

At Sacred Space last week we talked about 'God's call' on our lives, our ultimate purpose. What were you made for?

Christians believe that all people are made to love and be loved; this is our primary purpose. This is what God made human beings for.

What do you believe is your purpose in life? Reflect today, and ask God to show you you.

Our theme at Sacred Space next week is 'God's call' - exploring how we listen out for what God is asking us to do. God calls us to be the fullest version of ourselves, the person we were made to be. And God calls us into relationship with God's own self. How do you develop your relationship with God? Tell us in the comments.

It's Sacred Space this evening! We're a community of students and young adults who gather together on Wednesdays in Canterbury Cathedral. This week our theme is all about stories and spirituality. If you missed it tonight, why not come along next week and join us for reflection, discussion, followed by food, all provided.

The poet John Donne famously wrote 'no man is an island', meaning each person's life is entwined with lives of others. Christians believe that each of our stories is held and connected by the great big story of God, who is love. If your life was a novel, what would be the title? Tell us in the comments!

Come along to Sacred Space next Wednesday to explore more about Christians as story makers and spirituality and story.

Pause. Breathe. Take a step back from your hectic life, just for a moment.

You are loved.
You are worthy.
Let your soul rest in this.

Our theme at Sacred Space next week is 'imagination'. Using our imagination can help us access our spirituality. When we read scripture, we can imagine the sights and sounds of the story. When we pray, we can picture things we want to offer to God, and things we need to let go of. How do you use your imagination to connect to the divine?

17/10/2023

This week at Sacred Space we're going to be looking at one of the parables we hear in the Bible. Parables, or stories, can shape us and help us make sense of our lives. What book has been formative in your life? Tell us in the comments, and it doesn't have to be a religious one!

13/10/2023

How present would you say you are to your life? Are you awake to the things happening around you? Or are you perpetually distracted? Faith and spirituality teaches us that we need to practice presence, and when we do we'll be better connected to ourselves, to other people, to the planet and to God. Come along to Sacred Space each week to practice a little bit of presence.

At Sacred Space, we hold time for reflection and discussion. It's an inclusive space for students and young adults to come and explore spirituality and find a little haven of peace at Canterbury Cathedral in the middle of the week. It's at 7pm on Wednesdays - all are welcome, we'd love to see you there.

Each term at Sacred Space we have a different theme; this year we're focusing on: curiosity, presence, and imagination as three virtues for Christian living. What virtues do you live by? Could you build a little more of these three in?

25/09/2023
