Woven and Wonder

Woven & Wonder: 

A Churchwide Series on Growing Faith Together

A day of conversation, reflection, and practical wisdom with Meredith Miller for the whole church

Faith grows over time through relationships, shared practices, and the everyday moments we experience together. IPC’s Woven & Wonder Series invites our church to slow down and reflect on how faith takes shape, both in the life of the church and in the rhythms of home.

Join us on Thursday, March 5, for a churchwide day with Meredith Miller, author and faith formation leader, as we explore how faith is nurtured across generations and communities. This day includes a morning and an evening session, each shaped with a different audience in mind, so participants can engage in ways that fit their lives and roles.

  • Morning Session

    For Church Leaders, Educators & Ministry Volunteers
    10–11:30 a.m.
    IPC Sanctuary

    If you teach, lead, or care for children in the life of the church, this morning session is for you. Meredith will guide a conversation around how churches can thoughtfully and faithfully nurture children’s faith within the local church.

    Drawing on theology, experience, and best practices, this gathering invites participants to reflect on how worship, teaching, and shared community life shape faith over time, and how we can approach this work with care, clarity, and hope. Coffee and light breakfast bites will be available.

  • Evening Session

    For Parents, Grandparents & Community Members
    Reception & Book Signing: Drop in between 5-6 p.m., IPC Parlor
    Talk Begins: 6 p.m., IPC Sanctuary
    Cost: $10

    If you are walking alongside children in everyday moments, this evening session is for you. It is also a welcoming space for anyone who wants to reflect on their own experiences of faith and consider how faith is formed and examined over time. Together, we will explore how children experience and build faith, along with practical, grace-filled ways adults can support that growth. Drawing from her book Woven, Meredith offers encouragement that honors both the wonder of faith and the realities of daily life, helping adults see their everyday presence as meaningful and formative.

    Handheld snacks will be available during the reception. Childcare will be available for the evening session and is guaranteed for those who register by Sunday, March 1.

  • A Note About Wonder

    A Note About Wonder

    Coming in March 2026, Wonder is Meredith Miller’s long-awaited guide for helping children fall in love with Scripture. Organized into 52 short stories, the book is designed to be used by parents and caregivers alongside children, whether as a family devotional or as a trusted reference to return to over time.

    As the second stop on Meredith’s Wonder book launch tour, this event weaves together themes from both Wonder and Woven, offering a shared framework for nurturing faith that is thoughtful, rooted, and hopeful. Copies of Woven and Wonder will be available at both sessions, and Meredith will host a book signing during the evening reception.
