Recent Events with Detroit Navigators
Envision Detroit Together
On April 5th, over 50 of us came together to share our vision and invite others into the mission of multiplying everyday disciplemakers in Detroit. Rooted in a transformational, communal, missional, and generational approach, the gathering sparked meaningful connections and renewed inspiration.
Here are a few quotes that capture the experience:
Envision brought together friends who are each doing God’s work all over the city. I surprisingly connected with a friend I hadn’t seen in years. We purposefully agreed to get together soon. It was so great to reconnect.
-Jacky
I really enjoyed hearing the variety of stories of ministry taking place and the Kingdom of God breaking out in a number of contexts.
-Bob
During the Envision Detroit event, I truly enjoyed talking with new people I met from likehearted ministries, as well as reconnecting with some of those who were involved in our 20’s ministry a decade ago. The morning was planned well to allow us to interact at least briefly with several different people and learn more about their current disciplemaking in the city.
-Sara
The time broadened my vision of how God is at work, building a people belonging to Him in so many settings, through whom He is blessing the world! What a privilege and joy to be part of what He is doing!”
-Denny
For us, it was delightful to look around the full room & realize that upwards of half the people there were relatively new faces to us. God is growing the Work! Also, we made a couple of new connections that we trust will be mutually encouraging, going forward. 🙏🏻

Soul Care Retreat
In March, the Navigator’s Care Team facilitated our city team in a soul care weekend. This was time alone with God- Together. Each of the 30 attendees had spaces of alone time, small groups, and the combined shared experience of the whole weekend with God and one another.
Here are some key take-aways from a few of our staff:
The Detroit Soul Care was a very special and intentional time to inwardly focus on the health and well being of my soul… something I woefully neglect and rarely consider. The leaders challenged us through various methods to check in with what God says about us individually and collectively- and creativity was generated, wrong thinking of my identity was gently corrected through the Spirit’s leading and sweet community experienced with others in Detroit’s Kingdom work
-Trish
I think one of the greatest things about the soul Care retreat was our small groups where we listened to one another without fixing or giving advice. We rarely find a place where we can just be listened to without being fixed.
-Jacky
“Spending a weekend with others who were committed to the “one another’s” of Scripture, to sincerely caring for, strengthening and encouraging one another, was deeply life-giving and refreshing to my soul.”
