What Is Sacred Ground? Sacred Ground is a 10-part film and readings-based dialogue series on race, grounded in faith, discussed in small groups called “circles,” consisting of no more than 10 parishioners, including two trained congregant facilitators. As part of our Becoming Beloved Community efforts, Grace is training facilitators this summer, and planning to host at least two circles this fall.
Sacred Ground has been described as a life-changing experience by those who have gone through the series. Democrats, Republicans, these conversations are meant for all of us – we are one community in Christ! Across America, there are currently over 1,165 registered Sacred Ground Circles – an impressive total since the program’s inception approximately two years ago.
