Circle of Connection

Circle Notes:

Dinner is potluck. We encourage you to bring your own non-disposable plate, cup, and utensils for the potluck to decrease environmental waste.

Becoming’s monthly Circle of Connection is our core tradition. It is here that we come together to build and strengthen our connections with the world around us, each other, and the Divine. The road to membership in Becoming begins and ends with the monthly Circle of Connection.

The circle provides a safe space to temporarily step outside of the hectic pace of our daily lives to re-affirm our relationships with the divine that infuses everything that is. It is a time of thanksgiving and healing with caring and fun people.

After dinner, we will have a Seekers Class on the topic of Ritual Theory and Traditions.
