Chalice Circles Beginning in September

Are you looking to get to know other people, grow in your faith, and practice the skill of deep listening? We will be offering Chalice Circles, also known as “covenant groups” and “small group ministry,” beginning in September.

Chalice Circles are a vital part of our congregation. Groups of 10 to 12 people meet regularly, usually monthly, to reflect on and discuss significant life topics. Whether the topic is “good and evil,” “mindful living,” or “letting go,” the conversation is respectful and caring and leads to greater understanding. In each session, all participants have opportunity to share their perspectives, tell their stories, and listen deeply. The time together is structured: Groups begin and end with centering readings and often include a time of silence before the sharing begins.

James will be facilitating a group on the third Wednesdays at 7 p.m. starting September 20 and Carol will be facilitating a group on the second Tuesdays at 7 p.m. beginning September 12. If you are interested in joining one of these groups, please contact James or Carol.
