Anything you do from the soulful self will help lighten the burdens of the world. Anything. You have no idea what the smallest word, the tiniest generosity, can cause to be set in motion.
North Parish offers a variety of peer-led groups that offer paths for connection, friendship, and the exploration of various “spiritual practices” or religious wisdoms. These groups provide their members opportunities for mutual support and service to the wider congregation. Small groups are the primary way that newcomers (and long timers) build relationships and care for each other. We encourage our groups to build stronger bonds and engage in congregational life by occasionally signing up as a team to help on Sunday mornings or at all-congregation events.
Many of our groups are open and meet on a drop-in basis; if you are curious, just show up! Some groups are more established, with the same people meeting over a period of time and following a more set program. Our staff can assist you if you would like to join one
of these groups.
Here is a list of some of the groups we currently have.
For those who need support from our Minister, pastoral support is available through our office.
