I feel so touched by the personal connections and conversations, of people wanting to know more. The power of this group is emanating out. What an influence we can have on our global society. Here at the Gathering we are a microcosm of our home centers.

This gathering has been INCREDIBLE. As a small center based way out in Yosemite National Park, I really feel folded into the greater network. This feels so vital. Thank you for creating this!
