Questions

Finding an in-person Sabbath community

What counts as a Sabbath gathering?

A gathering can be a meal in a home, worship at a church, a small group, or time together in a community space. Each listing explains its own format.

Do I need an account to browse?

No. You can browse public gatherings and explore the Sabbath Map first. Create an account when you are ready to RSVP or contact a host.

How do I know what to expect?

Gathering pages can include the time, location, format, host notes, what to bring, and other details that help you arrive prepared.

Are gatherings only held at churches?

No. Gatherings can happen in homes, churches, parks, and community spaces. Use each listing to see the setting before you RSVP.

How is a gathering different from a hangout?

Gatherings are usually planned, in-person Sabbath experiences with fuller details. Hangouts are more flexible and can happen online in a live room, in person, or both.

Can I bring someone with me?

Check the host notes and capacity on the gathering page. You can also share the public page so a friend can read the details and RSVP.
