The LCSB warmly welcomes you to our Summer Gathering and AGM at Worth Abbey, West Sussex, on the weekend of Friday 22 – Monday 25 August 2025.
Summer Gathering 2025
​
The Summer Gathering is the highlight of August for our household and one of the best opportunities for our whole community to come together. We extend a warm invitation to all friends of the LCSB to join us, especially families and young adults.
​
Worth Abbey is a wonderful part of our history and heritage and I know for many of us, time at Worth is always time well spent. We are delighted that again the monastic community are generously welcoming us to share time with them.
​
As you may know, the theme of the SG changes every year and this year we are looking at "Pilgrims in Hope." One of the things which drew me to the Lay Community was its intergenerational fellowship and openness.We hope to do more than just learn about this, but actually live it through the weekend and beyond!
​
We are planning something which is open and accessible to people of all ages for members, friends, seekers and anyone else connected to our community. I hope it is something you feel able to come to and to invite others to and we want to make it as easy as possible for you to invite old and new friends and family to the Saturday.
​
We are also fortunate to be hosting a ceilidh late afternoon on the Saturday leading into the BBQ. Application forms will soon be available and we will send a link to you when they are ready.
