Annual GatheRing Reflection

The 2024 Annual Gathering Planning team had as our goal not to cure, resolve, or reconcile anything but to bring to light and tell the truth about the role the congregational church had in the colonization of the Oregon Territory and the dispossession of land from Indigenous people.

Your reflections on the weekend are invaluable to us as we work to create spaces for fostering stronger connections, nurturing spiritual growth, becoming an antiracist conference, and amplifying our prophetic voice!

Please answer the following evaluation questions to help us as we plan for next year and beyond!
