2005 GTW Regional Congress of Southern California:
BUILD THE FIELD: TAKING THE NEXT STEP
"Out beyond
ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll
meet you there." Rumi
The future is upon us and women have an
integral part to play ...
It’s time to Gather the Women!
Come join other like minded women and...
Share your story ...
Tune into your deepest wisdom
...
Collect resources to change
your world for the better!
No matter where you are in your journey, this unique program is
designed to help you take your next step with clarity, confidence
and support. Using the concept of a spiral we will wind inward,
touch center, then revolve back out into the world. Core Questions,
brief keynotes and lots of circle time will give participants food
for thought and resources for action.

Women
We are not just gathering the
women.
We are also gathering the women’s organizations
of Southern California.
If your organization brings a delegation of 3-5 women to this timely
gathering, you will discover numerous powerful ways to network and
synergize with others:
All organizations will be invited to present a one minute ‘info-mercial’
about your goals and projects before the entire group.
A description of your organization and complete contact information
will be published in our Organizational Directory.
Each organization will be given space at our resource tables
to set up a display board describing your on-going work, including
ample space for handouts and flyers of upcoming events.
Your organization will be listed on the Gather the Women website
as a participating partner in the Southern California Congress.
...and there will be plenty of time for personal connection
and conversation during the day.
