What is the Gathering of Friends? Around 1000 Quakers on a college campus! A week of deepening relationships. A week of renewed spirituality. A week of play. A week of focused exploration. Some call it Quaker Summer Camp for all ages. Some say it’s like a family reunion. 

Richmond Friends Meeting can help with expenses, especially for first time attenders. Adult Spiritual Education has funds and encourages people to attend. 

The Gathering warmly invites all Friends to come. Seasoned Friends. Brand new Friends. Not quite yet Friends. Young Friends. Older Friends. Friends coming with family.  Friends coming with children and youth. Friends coming alone. 

If you’ve been to the Gathering before, plan to come.  Plan toencourage Friends in your community to join you. 

If you have never been to the Gathering before, know that you are especially welcome. Come give it a try!
