Already planning on being with us for the 2027 Gathering? We hope so! But maybe you haven’t yet considered it or you’re sitting on the fence about whether to attend. Wherever you find yourself, our next Community Life Event is tailored for you, and we hope you’ll register today.

We’re excited to give a sneak peek into what you can expect at the Gathering as we spend some time with David Wu, our featured speaker. He will be talking about cultural awareness and agility and their importance as we sit with people in spiritual direction. 

With registration for the Gathering opening on July 1st, this is the perfect time to hear from David and experience something of what’s in store in 2027. 

Hope to see you there!
