XEALOTS Alliance Gathering

It’s been almost a year since we gathered. Last August, Skye Jethani and Ralph Winter left us with, not just nice ideas, new perspectives and inspiration; they also challenged us to engage and to cope with the seismic shifts occuring all around us. We also developed many new friendships, and out of that have flowed collaborations and partnerships!
Let’s convene again this year and continue to build on our relationships, and to discuss possibilities for creative collaboration. We will also be seeking the Holy Spirit together to continue to guide us in this next season. Dave Gibbons and our special guests, Brant Cryder (President of a leading global fashion brand) and Francis Chan, will facilitate our time together.
