\nEach session we will focus on one at titude and what it means to us\, both in our meditation practice and in ou r daily lives.
\nOur first session will be on the attitude of 'Non-judging' or taking the stance of an impartial witness to your inner and outer experience\, being able to notice and step back from the constant stream of liking and disliking thoughts we have cluttering ou r minds much of the time and finding the peace which comes from seeing thi ngs as they really are.
\nThat's just my short def inition. We will read together Kabat-Zinn's segment from the book\, I'll s hare a few stories and then we can open the discussion. What do you think of non-judging? How do you use it in your life or where do you want more o f this attitude? What does our culture say about judging?
\nLooking forward to a fun and lively discussion.

Legendary Soul Singer AL GREEN
American gospel a
nd soul singer Al Green is coming to DPAC\, Durham Performing Arts Center
on September 19\, 2012.
Tickets go on sale to the public beginning Ju
ne 29 at 10am:
Online at DPACnc.com
DPAC Ticket Center:
919.680.2787\, 123 Vivian Street\, Durham\, NC
Friends of DPAC
members may place their orders on June 27. Joining the Friends of DPAC i
s free\, and you can register at www.DPACnc.com/friendofdpac.
'Our stage has hosted musical legends since we opened\, and we’re keep
ing our track record strong with an appearance by Al Green. DPAC audiences
will be treated to excellent sight lines and and perfect acoustics for th
is R&B superstar\, and the memories he’ll evoke will last a lifetime\,'
said Bob Klaus\, GM for DPAC.
The Reverend Al Green is known the w orld over for his extraordinary voice and legendary hits that include “L et’s Stay Together”\, “I’m Still in Love with You”\,”Tired of Being Alone”\, and 'Take Me To The River'. In 2005\, Rolling Stone mag azine named him #65 on their “100 Greatests Artists of All Time”. Gr een has sold more than 20 million records\, has earned 11 GRAMMY Awards\, and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995.
\nGree
n’s latest release Lay It Down was conceived as a collaboration between
the soul legend and a handful of gifted young admirers from the worlds of
contemporary R&B and hip hop. The album is drawn from a series of inspired
sessions that yielded the most high-spirited\, funky and often lushly rom
antic songs of Green’s latter-day career. The album is a refreshingly ol
d school jam\, with everyone laying down the music together\, face to face
\, heart to heart\, soul to soul.
The project features the soph
isticated R&B voices of singer-songwriters John Legend\, Anthony Hamilton
and Corinne Bailey Rae\, and was co-produced with Green by two of hip-hop
s most innovative players\, drummer Ahmir “?uestlove” Thompson from
the Roots and keyboardist James Poyser\, the go-to guy for high-profile ar
tists ranging from Erykah Badu to Common. Add in Brooklyn’s celebrated D
ap-King Horns (Sharon Jones\, Amy Winehouse)\, guitarist Chalmers “Spank
y” Alford (Mighty Clouds of Joy\, Joss Stone) and bassist Adam Blackston
e (Jill Scott\, DJ Jazzy Jeff)\, among others\, and you’ve got a modern
soul-music dream team\, fronted by the most expressive voice in the busine
ss.
Pastors\, join us for the Pastor’s Leadership Conference\,
a two-day event (September 19 and 20) taking place during WFX specificall
y designed for top-level pastors and church leaders. The Pastor’s Leader
ship Conference consists of 17 sessions created to equip you with practica

hallenges.

The UNCW Ann Flack Boseman Gallery presents Innocent Nkurunz
iza: Rwanda Shares Sept. 20 through Oct. 25. The exhibition formally opens
with a reception at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday\, Sept. 20 in the gallery locat
ed on the 2nd floor of the
Fisher University Union.
Through his choices of mixed media\, Nkurunziza uses vibrant colors and an
abstract impressionist style to explore 'Mother Rwanda\,'?the country as
both place and parent. His experience with blending colors and shading cre
ates a sense of movement while capturing symbolic moments from what he obs
erves on his journey as an artist. He states\, 'The dynamic rhythm of natu
re\, people\, colors and texture within my world are the basis from which
my art is derived.'
Nkurunziza actively spreads his love of art
and his vision of the national identity to others in his work with projec
ts like Ivuka Arts where budding artists can find mentors and impoverished
children can find\, as the collective's website says\, 'hope and educatio
nal opportunities.' With pieces titled 'Fellowship' and 'Equality\,' the w
orks of Innocent Nkurunziza embody ideas rather than just images\, ideas t
hat UNC Wilmington is carrying into the classroom with several class visit
s by the artist. The communal nature of his art expands as it is placed in
tandem with the work of local student artists.
For more inf
ormation\, please contact the Association for Campus Entertainment (ACE) a
t 910.962.7722 or ace@uncw.edu. Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday
through Saturday\, closed Sunday. For directions to the Fisher University
Union\, visit www.uncw.edu/ba/campus_map.htm for a campus map.

WOW Southern Conference
'Set me as a seal upon your he
art' Song of Songs 8:6
Come to the beautiful mountains of wes
tern North Carolina for a weekend Christian womens conference. The lovely
“get away from it all” setting is refreshing and relaxing\, giving y
ou the opportunity to have quality fellowship with the Lord and others.
A WOW conference includes:
Fellowship\, praise an
d worship\,
Teaching from the Bible\,
Laughter and tears...
Beginning on Friday evening after a relaxing dinner\, and endin
g with lunch on Sunday gives ladies a chance to unwind and not be concern
ed with the details of every day life. The beautiful grounds of the Ridg
ecrest Conference Center foster private reflection\, prayer and bible stu
dy.
Fellowship time with other women is available over meals
and in between the WOW conference sessions. The impactful teaching of God
’s Word by seasoned and anointed speakers is relevant and addresses the
multi-functional roles of women in today’s society.
Praye
r ministry is offered after the Word is taught to help women personally ap
ply what they have learned.
Powerful times of worship through
music invite the Lord’s presence. The arts\, such as prophetic paintin
g liturgical dance\, and biblical theatre presentations are also incorpor
ated into a WOW conference to express worship to the Lord.
I
f you are hungering for more\, this Christian womens conference is for you
!
You will be challenged to live your life for Jesus in ever
deepening ways and come to know more of His joy and strength. The Bible t
eaches us that we are “complete in Christ” (Colossians2:10). This is
an important concept for women to grasp as society teaches us that we wil
l find completeness in our earthly relationships\, careers\, home-life\,
church or ministry.
For too long\, women have searched for l
ove in all the wrong places. Only in Christ can we truly be complete. The
n we are enabled to face life with confidence no matter the circumstances
we may find ourselves in because we know that God is with us. God is alw
ays faithful and taking part in a WOW event will reinforce that truth.
It is always enriching to be part of a Women of the Word confer
ence in Ridgecrest\, NC. WOW events have a rich and long history at Ridge
crest. The present and future promises to be even brighter as women are
empowered to walk before the Lord prophetically and pursue their purposes
in God’s Kingdom.
A beautiful Christian woman impacts her
home\, church\, community and workplace with the light of Jesus.
A Women of the Word conference offers a place of learning\, encourage
ment\, healing and growth for women of all ages\, cultures\, and denomina
tions. Dedicated to transforming women into Christ’s image through the
teaching of His Word and the empowerment of His Spirit\, WOW events equip
women to walk out biblical truths in their daily lives.
We e
ncourage you to please contact us with your thoughts and questions!
