Each year, we convene a regional gathering around North America. In March 2024, we piloted our first West Coast regional gathering in Santa Ana, CA. Grantees and learning partners from Seattle, San Francisco, and the Los Angeles area came together for a two day gathering. There were activations of the Creative Community Care traveling exhibit and a community “pray and break bread” event around Santa Ana with local hosts. We also spent time engaged in conversation around the distinct opportunities and challenges of ministry in West Coast cities. For 2025, we are planning for a Midwest regional gathering in Indianapolis, IN.
