About Covenant Groups

Covenant groups meet once or twice a month, usually in members' homes, to form an intentional community. The format of meetings varies from group to group, but the process is always a sharing of personal experiences related to a theme that has grown from within the group or from a resource the group has chosen.

As our congregation grows larger, covenant groups allow us to develop close friendships with a small number of people, giving us a place to know and be known, to discover that we are not alone, and to grow from the wisdom that our colleagues bring.

We ask that new participants agree to make a commitment of at least one year to the group process, so that our connections with each other may have the chance to deepen. Those interested joining one of the new groups that are forming may contact Dennis Daniel at 703/796-1236 or ddaniel@uuma.org.
