Covenant Groups

To expand our Shared Ministry together, we are re-establishing Convenanting Groups. A covenant group is a small relational group made up of four to eight people who meet regularly to establish and nurture themselves in their own beloved community. The beauty is that since we as a community subscribe to the Soul Matters curriculum, we have access to their Small Group Ministry packets that give potential groups the opportunity to connect with each other on a spiritual level without extra work!

If you are interested in participating or would like more information, contact connections@uufs.org.

Amplifying the Charge

Starting in October, 2024, Rev. Johnnie will be offering Sunday Supplements on the dates he preaches. The supplements will cover material from Amplifying the Charge, a UU resource that provides a framework for multi-layered engagement. It supports communities to learn more about our faith, theology, and governance, incorporating personal experiences of faith, spirit, and humanity.
