National Gathering
The National Gathering is Missional Wisdom Foundation’s yearly conference where friends, students, and the Foundation’s dispersed community come together to dream, learn from each other, and be supported in their experimental efforts. Each conference has key note speakers, opportunities to lead or be part of workshops, a Taize style worship, space to play games, and a party at the end of the weekend. The conference rotates between Missional Wisdom’s experiment sites in Dallas, Texas and Asheville, North Carolina.

Thank you to all who joined us for the
2018 MWF National Gathering
at The Mix Coworking & Creative Space in Dallas.
“Dude. What joy to get together with folks who welcome the next way ‘God is coming toward them.’ (Thanks for that good word, Elaine). Incredibly creative and collaborative people who say yes to the Holy Spirit for the sake of resurrection, justice, peace, goodness, and community. Thank you, Missional Wisdom Foundation, for an amazing national gathering. [I am] deeply grateful to hear from your wisdom as we learn to say yes to the God who comes toward FAM Houston.”
“Heart is full after a beautiful time in Dallas, experiencing community, hearing and sharing stories of transformation, living into the possibility that God has in store for reflecting and being the Commonwealth. Grateful, grateful, grateful for the people of the Missional Wisdom Foundation and their open hearts and souls.”
“The Missional Wisdom Foundation National Gathering was pretty amazing to say the least. I’m grateful for the opportunity to rest, and be around others who are changing the world one community at a time.”
“To be with a group of people transforming the world through differing means and avenues and perspectives - thanks! My joy today? The spiritual practice of weaving.”
