The Gathering of Leaders – a network of hope-filled, creative leadership 

 For nearly twenty years, The Gathering of Leaders (GoL) has been connecting, developing, and supporting leaders in mission-driven, creative, hope-filled ministry. We gather clergy and lay leaders into networks of peer-to-peer learning, fueled by periodic gatherings and sustained in resource-sharing and mutual support over time. 

In 2025, we have taken a pause from our regular operations to discern a path forward for the work of supporting, networking, and developing leaders in the changing church and world.
You can read more about our strategic transition here.

Please join us for a special virtual event on June 3, 2025 to celebrate the innovative and path-making work of The Gathering of Leaders through the last two decades, and to look ahead to the future. The event will feature a keynote on leadership in time of change from Presiding Bishop Sean Rowe, and will include recognition of our founder the Right Reverend Claude Payne and other key leaders who brought GoL into being, along with brief remarks from former Presiding Bishop Michael Curry.
