Covenant Groups
A Covenant Group is a confidential soul-care community where pastors and ministry leaders can process life, deepen relationships, and help one another serve well and finish well.
What Is a Covenant Group?
A safe place for honest soul care
Covenant Groups are designed to provide a safe and confidential setting where ministry leaders can talk honestly about life, leadership, pain, pressure, joy, and spiritual growth.
These groups are not designed to fix people or force accountability. Instead, they create a trusted relational environment where encouragement, honesty, prayer, and mutual care can happen naturally over time.
Why Groups Matter
Many leaders are running scared, running on fumes, or running alone
Pastoral ministry can leave leaders exhausted, isolated, and unsure where to turn. Covenant Groups offer a different way: a small, trusted circle of leaders who know each other deeply and are committed to walking together.
No leader is stronger than the small circle of trusted people surrounding and supporting them.
how it works
4-3-2-1 Model
The model we follow is typically 4-3-2-1: four leaders, meeting over three years, twice a year in retreat, and once a month by Zoom or phone calls with an experienced facilitator.
4
Four Leaders
You will meet with three other leaders, one of which is your group facilitator. The small number allows for honest, open sharing as your relationships deepen.
3
Three Years
You will stay in your group for three years. Transformation is not an event; it’s a journey. It only happens on purpose, over time and in community.
2
Two Retreats
You will gather for two in-person retreats each year. Seeing each other face-to-face is one of the keys to deepening relationships. Being in the same room with each other allows for even greater opportunities to be open, vulnerable, and authentic.

One Video
You will gather with your group virtually in one video meeting a month. Meeting with this much regularity allows you to receive ongoing support, encouragement, and allows you to give updates on your life and ministry.
