What is Open Circle?

Open Circle is a safe, respectful, and welcoming community where students from diverse backgrounds explore personal and spiritual growth. We support each other in developing into engaged community-minded leaders through:

  • Volunteer groups in underserved Hamilton communities
  • Weekly drop-in groups for sharing and reflection
  • Personal development courses
  • Events like planetarium shows, panel discussions, and retreats
  • Spiritual companioning (1 on 1 support)
