The Gathering 2026 Conference Highlights

The Gathering 2026 Annual Conference was held in Carlsbad, CA. The Gathering is a community of givers who seek to grow in our effectiveness as philanthropists, in the leadership of our families, and in the maturity of our Christian faith.

We are a sounding board of trusted peers, and we relish inviting thinkers and practitioners to help stretch our imaginations for how we might join God’s work. Here is a video that shares a little more as well. Video credit: Shorman Creative
