Covenant Groups

Covenant Groups are made up of individuals who agree to meet one evening per month for a period of twelve months. Groups typically share a meal or refreshments and reflect together on a particular subject or book, exploring their covenant with God, one another and the world. Two women's covenant groups are currently in process: Everyday Spirituality Covenant Group and Mothering Covenant Group. New groups will form in January 2010. If there is sufficient interest in forming a new group, additional covenant groups will be created.
