My son and I have been separated from FACS for over four years and I am trying to fight to bring my son back home to me but FACS is digging their heels. Pray that God will open the door to bring him back home. Also I am currently looking for work so prayers that God will open an opportunity for me there.

Summer Daily Spiritual Practice

This summer, as you feel the change in schedules and busyness all around, we want to encourage you to still take the time to engage in daily spiritual practices. Lectio 365 is a wonderful resource to start your day with some intentional time with God. Below we have provided the link to the website where you can go and download the app to start engaging with their practices. https://www.24-7prayer.com/resource/lectio-365/ 

Additionally, as you go through the summer we would love for you to return to some of the spiritual practices we have done on Sunday mornings. To do this we have added a link to our spiritual practices page. https://southridgechurch.ca/spiritualpractices
