Sacred Circle: Small Group Faith-Sharing - May 10, 2025
With Barbara Howing and Karen Brugge
May 10, 2025
Are you looking for a place to connect in community? Seeking a place where you can talk about your faith in an open and non-judgmental environment? Join us for Sacred Circle, a small-group faith sharing experience. It is your chance to carve out a special time each month to draw on God’s comfort and strength through the sharing of your joys and challenges of life.
Sacred Circle is a contemplative listening experience, which means it is about holy listening. Trained facilitators will guide you through a structured sharing format that creates the opportunity for deep listening and a respect for each person’s sacred story. Each Sacred Circle is a stand-alone session and new participants are always welcome.
Cost: Free (voluntary contribution upon arrival)
Where: In-person at Mercy Center Burlingame
Facilitated by: Barbara Howing and Karen Brugge
**Registration for Sacred Circles closes a week prior to the meeting date
Sacred Circle is sponsored by Mercy Center Burlingame and Retreat, Reflect, Renew, an online retreat ministry.
