What is a Circle Group?

Circles are groups of 6 to 10 people who gather together via Zoom or individual congregant homes at designated times and days throughout the year to focus on and discuss a specific spiritual principle or topic. It is an opportunity to expand your understanding of spiritual concepts, learn more about yourself, and discover some very special friends.

Benefits of Participating in a Circle

  • The dynamics of a “Circle” create a cozy and welcoming setting that fosters a feeling of community and connection.
  • Through the Circle experience, you enjoy a variety of viewpoints, backgrounds and personalities. Collectively, you benefit from far more wisdom than you would reading alone.
  • Everyone is a teacher. When you can share your truth — you teach.
  • Circle members typically stay in touch and provide love and support to one another that continues well past the designated Circle time frame.
  • This experience offers a way to learn more about yourself and inspire personal growth.
  • When you share from your heart, you strengthen your communication skills and build strong connections with others.
