Gathering of Friends and Blessings

As we move forward into our next 50 years, with eyes and hearts open, we wanted to set aside a special place on the calendar each year to gather together as friends, community, and stewards of this beautiful land. A time to reconnect, share stories, lend our hands, and offer our blessings for the path ahead.

Throughout the weekend we’ll enjoy shared Abode meals, music by Mark Kelso, hands-to-work projects around the grounds, and the simple joy of being together. There will also be time for Abode storytelling, moments of reflection, Community Zikr, Universal Worship, and other gatherings that honor the spirit of this place and the people who help it thrive.

Whether you have been part of the Abode community for decades or are joining us for the first time, this weekend is an invitation to celebrate the past, participate in the present, and help bless the future of the Abode.

Come share a meal, lend a hand, sing, remember, and celebrate the journey together.
