<h3>Creating Room for God Daily</h3>Sacred Spaces was more than just a one-day event in July. Out of that gathering came a practical tool designed to help wives create room for God in their everyday lives: The Sacred Spaces Prayer Journal.<figure id="figure-dmd5tttciimexk5ivf"><img id="dmd5tttciimexk5ivf" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/16LW0FF0iqXnSUhAWzMXi8WByY2LYGIJSJmETndxe2I0veH19DnhfSqJJ4ZubYgQ.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 " style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 50% 25%;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="50%" data-positiony="25%" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/16LW0FF0iqXnSUhAWzMXi8WByY2LYGIJSJmETndxe2I0veH19DnhfSqJJ4ZubYgQ.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 50% 25%;"></figure>This journal was birthed from our desire to make intimacy with God not just an event, but a lifestyle.

The Sacred Spaces Prayer Journal

On July 12th, Wise Wives hosted the maiden edition of Sacred Spaces at the LightHouse, home of the KUPES Young Women’s Network in Lusaka. The theme, “A Call to Intimacy with God,” invited women into worship, reflection, and renewal. Tickets sold out in just two and a half days — a powerful reminder of how deeply women long to encounter God in close fellowship. The day itself was unforgettable. We prayed, worshipped, laughed, and cried together. Sacred Spaces created an atmosphere where women could put aside the noise of life and truly draw near to God. Many who attended still speak of the healing, encouragement, and renewal that took place.<figure id="figure-m3cj6bnqt9mexiq333"><img id="m3cj6bnqt9mexiq333" src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/1bs50zQ53qJsgT5YsdkXX1oLUpLlazwmJxUpHcstqSmRzsSB52v9ZN9LJ8Y9DQXc.jpg" alt="peaceful meditation" title="peaceful meditation" class="object-cover bg-gray-100" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 40% 10%;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="40%" data-positiony="10%" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/covers/1bs50zQ53qJsgT5YsdkXX1oLUpLlazwmJxUpHcstqSmRzsSB52v9ZN9LJ8Y9DQXc.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 40% 10%;"></figure><h2> </h2>See the photos: Visit our homepage gallery to glimpse some of the special moments captured that day — women in worship, sisters in prayer, and joyful fellowship.<h3> </h3><h3>Honouring Our Guests and Team</h3>We were humbled to be led by Lady Norena, our Keynote Speaker, whose wisdom and grace blessed the gathering and set the tone for the day. Our Worship Minister, Pastor Mercy, carried us into God’s presence with depth and sincerity, and she was joined by Lady Victoria, who served alongside her in song. We were also honoured by the presence of mentors, distinguished guests, and friends who stood with us in faith and accountability. Their presence was not only a blessing but also a visible reminder that Wise Wives is surrounded by a community of encouragement and covering. The band created an atmosphere of reverence and joy through their music. We are equally grateful to our photographer (Makesure Photography) and videographer, who captured the beauty and spirit of the day, ensuring these intimate moments can continue to inspire long after the event. And to our Sacred Spaces Dream Team — the volunteers who welcomed, served, organised, and carried the weight behind the scenes, we see you, and we thank you. You were absolutely exceptional, and your dedication made the day flow with grace and excellence.<h3> </h3><h3>Gratitude to Our Sponsors</h3>Sacred Spaces was made possible because of both corporate partners and the wider Wise Wives family. We are deeply grateful to our official sponsors<figure id="figure-5yh6vkyycmexiqtmk"><img id="5yh6vkyycmexiqtmk" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/16KQFNGVGEFNXjIkLtK8HXGr0UcgwQdjArnKqyvhbzIA4x5ni4YO9vvLGazhPvIq.png" alt="prayer meditation" title="prayer meditation" class="object-cover bg-gray-100" style="aspect-ratio: 3/2; object-position: 85% 65%;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="3:2" data-caption="" data-positionx="85%" data-positiony="65%" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/16KQFNGVGEFNXjIkLtK8HXGr0UcgwQdjArnKqyvhbzIA4x5ni4YO9vvLGazhPvIq.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 3/2; object-position: 85% 65%;"></figure>KUPES Young Women's Network&nbsp;Onyx TechnologiesAstro InnovationsTreatsworthTasty Food Boutique&nbsp;The Cake Lovers&nbsp;But the truth is, it took a village. Family gave monetary contributions. Some of my KUPES sisters sowed seeds quietly, without logos or publicity. Friends, even at the last minute, gave into the event — some without attending in person. Others interceded in prayer, known to us and unknown. Every single one of these gifts, whether financial, spiritual, or practical, made Sacred Spaces what it was. For that, we honour you. Your generosity and prayers carried the event, and your seed will continue to bear fruit in every life that was touched. Your contributions helped us create an environment where women could encounter God and community in a meaningful way.<h2> </h2><h2>A Step Forward</h2>Sacred Spaces is more than just an event we’ll remember — it set the tone for what Wise Wives will continue to build. As wives, mothers, and leaders, we need moments like these to reset, refocus, and hear from God. We will continue creating such spaces, because when wives gather around God’s presence, homes are strengthened, marriages are renewed, and communities are impacted.

Sacred Spaces: A Call to Intimacy with God

<h3>Choosing Words that Build</h3><blockquote>Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” — Proverbs 18:21</blockquote>In March, Wise Wives leaned into the theme of Communication and Connection. We reflected on how powerful words are in shaping the atmosphere of our homes and influencing the direction of our lives.<figure id="figure-pyehz9ckcrmexgqo0w"><img id="pyehz9ckcrmexgqo0w" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/2beG3lmYtp5uUudyTgb3vjbslVKlfka6g7RVUoxVuEvkIa6sSkeCN7z9ljua4p1W.png" alt="positive communication" title="positive communication" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 " style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 40% 20%;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="40%" data-positiony="20%" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/2beG3lmYtp5uUudyTgb3vjbslVKlfka6g7RVUoxVuEvkIa6sSkeCN7z9ljua4p1W.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 40% 20%;"></figure><h2>Communication and Connection at Home</h2>In personal relationships, the words we choose can significantly Marriage is a daily rhythm of words. Respectful, life-giving language builds intimacy, while careless words create distance. For our children, words are identity-shaping. Every conversation has the potential to teach them who they are, who God is, and how they should treat others.<h2>Communication in Prayer</h2>Prayer is communication too — the most important kind. The devotional reminded us that prayer is not a script, but an honest connection with our Father. Sometimes we speak; sometimes we simply listen. In that sacred space, our words find alignment with God’s will.<h2>The Speaking Life Devotional Experience</h2>Beyond the daily readings, we invited everyone with the devotional into a 4-week community experience. Every Saturday at 8 a.m., we gathered to reflect on the milestone days:Day 7 – Healing WordsDay 14 – Emotional IntelligenceDay 21 – Social Media WisdomDay 28 – Building Trust Through CommunicationThose sessions were practical and deeply personal. Women shared testimonies of how even small changes in language shifted the atmosphere of their homes and workplaces.<figure id="figure-ws15wqagopmexgreng"><img id="ws15wqagopmexgreng" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/7OrTJ8WR59NpqT1qs9z7zFXyx0fJ8pPGwLMjvNJJ01zxnKxzDCxQrppigZHQTosF.png" alt="happy customer" title="happy customer" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 " style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 10% 0%;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="10%" data-positiony="0%" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/7OrTJ8WR59NpqT1qs9z7zFXyx0fJ8pPGwLMjvNJJ01zxnKxzDCxQrppigZHQTosF.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: 10% 0%;"></figure><h2>Carrying It Forward</h2>“Communication and Connection” wasn’t just a theme for March. It’s something we carry forward. Every word spoken to our husbands, children, colleagues, or friends has weight. The choice before us is always the same: will this word build, or will it break?As Wise Wives, we choose life. We choose connection. We choose to speak in ways that reflect God’s heart.<h2>Take the Journey Yourself</h2>The Speaking Life Devotional is available in digital format on our Selar store.
