Chalice Circles – Facilitator Resources

The documents on this page are intended for the use of Small Group Ministry facilitators, both at UUCB and those at other churches.

We thank our mentors at the First Unitarian Church of San Jose for granting us permission to make some introductory sessions available for UUCB facilitators on this website. These are marked with an (SJ). All others are from Berkeley (B).

All of the documents are offered in Microsoft Word (rich text) so that they can be tailored to a particular group's needs and interests by the facilitator.
