WOMEN’S PROGRAMS
Circles & Small Groups
Sacred Threads offers smaller gatherings that focus on building connection around particular topics of shared interest. A variety of in-person and interactive online gatherings are intended to encourage connection, discussion, sharing, and an honest flow of ideas. We offer a Service of Remembrance annually as well.

Women’s Circles of
Reflection & Dialogue
Women's Circles meet monthly in different locations within the state. Sacred Threads started six Women’s Circles, and they have met for an average of 10 years. These monthly groups offer a safe environment for women to connect on a deeper level and explore life’s big questions. In Circle, all are committed to developing and maintaining the growth and life of the group. In Circles tailored to mothers, women support one another as they face the challenges of motherhood, relationships and family life, and the formation of their young children in faith and values. As spaces of wisdom, contemplation, and compassion, whatever is shared is respected and held in confidence.
