Great Gatherings can take place in homes, at a park, at school, in a restaurant, on a bike… just about anywhere you can imagine. It can be a small group or a large group – with or without children.
Each gathering has a suggested donation of $20, however, there is a pay what you can option. All are welcome! We hope you join us!
