SUMMARY:The Gathering 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Gathering is the BCM/D’s annual family meeting where we come together to celebrate all that God has done across our churches. This is a time to hear directly from the BCM/D team as we share stories of how God has moved in 2026\, provide important updates\, and cast vision for what’s coming in 2027. You’ll also have space to connect with pastors\, leaders\, and church members from across Maryland and Delaware\, strengthening relationships and being reminded that you’re part of something bigger.
