Help Others Discover the Gathering!

If you’d like to invite people to the Gathering, please do! Here are some ideas to get you started. Remember to start and end with listening. This is especially important if you are working across generations or building a connection to someone new. Find out what the person is looking for spiritually, find out what they seek, and identify ways that the Gathering can meet those needs. Good recommendations often come from people who take the time to listen. We hope to see you at the Gathering!

A poster that says “Ways to Support the Gathering.” Below are six boxes with six ways to support. They say: 1. Show Up Online: FGC posts about the Gathering each week in the spring. Help those posts reach more people by leaving a positive comment on one! 2. Know the Deadlines: June 1 is the deadline to register children and youth. It’s also the deadline to register for the Pre-Gathering Retreat. June 19 is the last day to register. 3. Coordinate Travel: See if you can carpool to the Gathering, arrive at the same airport as others, or help someone map out their travel logistics. 4. Listen Well: Ask people what they’re looking for in their spiritual life and listen well. Ask if they think the Gathering would be enriching. 5. Share Vitality: Forward the Vitality newsletter to two people you know. Write a short personal message about why you thought of them. 6. Add to the Bulletin: Write an announcement for your meeting’s bulletin. Be sure to mention the Gathering location, dates, and registration deadline. Below these six boxes is a larger rectangular box that says The 2026 Gathering is July 7-12, 2026 in Burlington, Vermont.
