Circle Worship

Circle worship is a style of worship popular with Unitarian Universalist (UU) youth groups, young adult groups, small group ministries, children’s programs, and pagan groups. In circle worship we sit or stand in circles. It is:

• Highly participatory—circle worship often includes movement and group sharing
• More experiential—the experience is the focus much more than the words
• Led by professionals and non-professionals alike

Sample Circle Worships

• Balance Ritual for Fall Equinox
• Love: Past and Present
• The May Weavers
• Beaded Ribbons
