The program of Covenant Groups at First Unitarian Church is a way to enrich church life by providing a welcoming small-group setting for discussion and ideas.
Several small groups of members and friends meet monthly in homes for fellowship, support, study, and service. Each group covenants, or promises, to meet together for a period of 6 months to one year. They also promise to listen to each other, as well as to share their own spiritual journeys with the group. Each group promises to do two service projects of their own choosing during the year. The groups average 10 members each. Most people choose a group based on when the group meets and where they meet.
Covenant groups help to strengthen all of the other aspects of church life by building new networks of friendships and helping newcomers find a place in the church.
