Deep Roots, Bold Action. This year‘s Annual Meeting theme celebrates that as we work to transform the world, we ourselves are also transformed: by Spirit, by our inner wisdom, and by each other.

Come inspire and be inspired with other advocates. Hear firsthand policy and advocacy updates from our staff experts. By joining knowledge and inspiration, we’ll hone our vision for FCNL’s work in the year ahead.

Meetings will take place on November 12-14, 2026 at Friends Meeting of Washington in Washington, DC and online.

Why Should I come to Annual Meeting?

  • Annual Meeting takes place one week after Election Day in the heart of the policy-making world. In past years this has been an important opportunity for our community to process the outcomes of elections and plan our next steps together.
  • You’ll be one of the first to know FCNL’s official legislative priorities that will guide our work for the next two years.
  • You’ll get to engage with FCNL’s lobbyists and organizers directly, ask questions about our issue areas, and learn about how your support empowers our staff.
  • Whether you’re reconnecting with old friends or meeting new ones, you’ll get to meet, worship with, and be in community amongst likeminded advocates and community members from all around the country.
  • Make the most of your time in Washington: there will be time set aside for you to go to the Hill for drop-by visits with Congressional offices!
