Get ready to register for the 2023 Just Love gathering and more this month!

March 2023

Excitement builds as registration opens for the Just Love gathering in Phoenix!

Excitement is building for the Just Love gathering as we finally meet in person with our sisters.

Registration for the Just Love gathering scheduled for September 21-24, 2023, in Phoenix, Ariz. opens March 1.

This special in-person gathering is an opportunity to live out the message that the Rev. Angela Khabeb left us with in Minneapolis in 2017 and virtually in 2021, "Christianity is not comfortable. If you are comfortable in Jesus, you are doing it wrong."

We are different from the people we were in 2017 and 2021. Yet we know that as people of faith, we are still called to justice and love. It is up to us to carry this work forward.

See some of our photos from our last in-person event in 2017 in Minneapolis.

Registration opens March 1.
