Gatherings
Twice a year, Friends for Lesbian, Gay,
Bisexual, and Transgender Concerns
gather to worship, conduct business,
pray, and play. In July, our numbers are
large, and we are a visible and valued
presence at the Friends General
Conference Gathering. We are a
community within a community there,
worshiping together daily but dispersing
throughout the Gathering at the rise of
Meeting.
Each February, we meet for a long
weekend dedicated to FLGBTQC work
and play. Our numbers are often smaller,
from 100 to 200, and we retreat together
to attend to old relationships and deepen
new ones.
Mid-Winter Gathering
Mid-Winter Gathering is held over the long weekend surrounding U.S. President's Day. The next Midwinter Gathering of
