find here when we gather as a family of faith?

wrongdoing, be forgiven, and be assured of a year of life, health and happiness.

D ROP -I N C OVENANT C IRCLE
Ever want to know what we are doing in Covenant Circles, but were afraid to ask?
I have just the circle for you! I began facilitating a covenant circle for folks who
are fairly new to us, or to the idea of covenant circles. Our covenant circles are
usually a 12-month commitment, for 2 hours each month. This covenant circle will
meet each 2nd Monday from 7:30 – 9:30, at CUC in the Lounge, and our
commitment is for only that night to be present with the group. You should come
as you are able. The plan, similar to our well-established circles is to join in deep
conversation on topics of ultimacy (the universal “us”) and intimacy (the
interpersonal “us”). Think about starting some new connections. After a few circles
you may decide to be part of a 12-month circle, often the connections continue
long after the year is through. I hope you can make it on Monday September 9th at
7:30 pm in the lounge at CUC.

In 1897, a small group of folks founded the Hackensack Unitarian Congregational
Church. By 1956, the congregation had outgrown its walls and moved to Paramus,
changing the name to Central Unitarian Church (CUC). Our members come from
all over Bergen and neighboring counties. CUC is a member of the Unitarian
