If you sense an invitation to join a Listening Group for a one-year commitment, you're in the right place.

Below is the list of open groups currently accepting applications. 

Before applying, we encourage you to read the FAQ and attend an online drop-in Listening Group to make sure this unique experience is a fit for you in this season of life.

Ready to apply? Here's how it works:

• Find an in-person or online group below and click apply.
• After applying, the group Coordinator will contact you to set up a discernment conversation.
• Other members will apply until the group is filled (4-6 people)—this may take a few weeks or months.
• The group's Coordinator will hold an online or in-person orientation.
• You'll begin meeting monthly in your Listening Group. 

Your mem­ber­ship begins with a one-year com­mit­ment to meet month­ly in your Listening Group. 

Each year you’ll have the oppor­tu­ni­ty to decide to recom­mit to the same Lis­ten­ing Group, apply to anoth­er Lis­ten­ing Group, or take a break. You may also decide to apply to become a Coor­di­na­tor and start your own group. These groups only get richer with time.

Your mem­ber­ship is good for as long as Fel­low­ship of the Burn­ing Heart exists, offer­ing you the poten­tial for a long-term community.
