AN INVITATION TO TRANSFORM YOUR HEALING JOURNEY

Grief can make you feel like the only one. Gathering 2026 is a collective experience where you will encounter a community that eagerly welcomes you, discovering a true sense of belonging amongst other miscarriage, stillbirth and infant loss survivors. Our theme for this year’s conference, Piece by Peace, is inspired by 1 Corinthians 12:12, reminding us that though our stories are different, we can find peace through the community that Christ is building through Gathering Hope.

WHO WE ARE

Gathering Hope is a nationwide movement helping loss moms overcome loneliness & find healing in community, with our annual conference hosted both at our headquarters in Texas and in cities across the U.S. By attending Gathering 2026 at a Host Site, you’ll experience the conference in a hybrid format, which offers a unique local experience, while still experiencing the heart of the Gathering.

“Words fail to describe the gift that Gathering Hope has been to me. To know I am not alone has given me so much strength. My son’s life was acknowledged and celebrated.”

— Julie B.

AN OPPORTUNITY TO FOCUS ON YOUR HEAVEN BABY FOR A DAY

Knowing that women are unified across the country to both grieve and celebrate the lives of our babies together is nothing short of sacred. Whether you come alone or with a friend, you’ll find a circle of women who truly understand, no explanations needed. We believe that your presence matters – by saying yes to yourself, you’re creating the community we all need!

“Gathering Hope’s yearly events have been such a healing experience for me! I’ve found so much comfort and understanding each time, both through God speaking to my heart during worship, and through the community of women that He has brought together.”

— Mary Katherine N.

PIECE BY PEACE IS MORE THAN A THEME, IT’S A PROMISE

Attend Gathering Oklahoma

Some of us come with broken hearts and strong faith. Some of us come with questions, doubts, or even anger toward God. You don’t have to have it all figured out to show up. We invite you to meet Him here, maybe in a new way, through worship, intentional conversations, and being seen by other loss moms who get it.

Whether you’ve been grieving for weeks, months or decades, you belong. If you met your baby through a pregnancy test or ultrasound, this conference is for you. If you said hello and goodbye in the same breath, Gathering 2026 is where you’ll find your community. If miscarriage, stillbirth or infant loss is part of your story, this is a space to honor your motherhood, speak your baby’s name, and begin healing, Piece by Peace. You can expect to be welcomed into a place where bonds are formed amongst women who no longer struggle in silence, but are emboldened to speak their babies names.

We’re survivors too…let’s do this together. 💜
