Gather Conference

Gather Conference is dedicated to creating inspiring, educational, and affirming spaces for Latter-day Saint LGBTQ individuals, their families, and friends. The event's primary mission is to foster a sense of belonging—to one another and to Jesus Christ. Now in its fourth year, Gather is the largest community of identity-affirming and faith-affirming individuals seeking to deepen their connection to Christ while embracing their individual journeys.
