Doing Life Together

Life Groups

Life Groups are back this fall! Join us for a six-week series based on Rev. Wendy’s recent talks on the book “If the Church were Christian.” If you've caught any of these talks, you know there's plenty of rich and timely material to dive into.

Starting the week of September 22nd and running through the week of October 27th, these small group discussions will take place in hosts' homes, with a few sessions possibly hosted at The Unity Center. Interested in joining a group? Use this link to view them.

Participant sign-ups have started and will end on September 15th.

FAQs

What are Life Groups?

Life groups are weekly small group gatherings held in person at hosts’ homes, at The Unity Center, or in another community venue, such as a clubhouse or library throughout the year. Gatherings last about 1-½ hours to 2 hours. (A virtual group is available).

Sign-ups are for two weeks with spaces limited by how many hosts are available. Groups meet for seven weeks of study and discussion based on videos of Rev. Wendy’s talks on the topic.

What Are The Goals Of Life Groups?

  • Come together in small groups for greater connections with each other, our Center, and our greater community

  • More deeply engage in our spiritual teachings

  • Support each other in our personal and spiritual growth

  • Work together to fulfill the mission of the Center

  • Practice loving-kindness by serving others with each other

What happens in a Life Group may vary a bit by group, but the general format is:

  • Opening Prayer and Check In

  • Viewing of video segments of Rev. Wendy’s talk on the current topic

(Participants are encouraged to take an active role in the group by signing up to pray in or out, lead the discussion, keep track of time, provide refreshments, etc.)
