Our Phoenix Circle is a very special level of membership and involvement. This is a circle which might include members at the level of, for example, our deacons – those members whose love and service has been formally recognized with this title by the congregation – or members and friends of over 15 years whose participation has been very high.
The Phoenix Circle is encouraged to meet two times a year with the ministers to consider spiritual formation for their religious needs.
The Phoenix Circle is particularly well suited to helping us form and regularly improve upon our practices of welcome and inclusion. We hope that Phoenix Circle members will consider hosting small gatherings for newcomers or to serve as newcomer mentors/coffee pals, and to work actively to positively promote All Souls. This might include working with the stewardship team or making personal appeals to members, encouraging groups, businesses or individuals to consider All Souls for rentals or events; lead or encourage legacy giving, or otherwise help prepare All Souls for the next generation.
