Join Our Sacred Village
In a world that often leaves us feeling disconnected and spiritually hungry, The Gathering Ground offers what all humans long for: A true Village Gathering Ground where souls can meet, heal, and remember.
What We Offer:
Monthly Community Gatherings
Every month (1 ½ – 2 hours), we create an intentional vessel through creative spiritual
expression, silence, music, poetry, and authentic sharing. This sacred space holds both
our cosmological beginnings and our inner work, offering a place to process grief,
gratitude, joy and renewal through:
Ritual and embodied spirituality,
Creative expression and sacred community,
Poetry, music, and reflective writing, and
Witnessing and companioning one another.
Seasonal Renewal Celebrations – The Divine Disruption: A Day of Silence and Presence
On or near each Solstice, we gather for a transformative 24-hour experience:
An opening 90 minute community gathering via Zoom.
22 hours of unplugged silence and inner soul renewal in the comfort of your own home.
A closing 90 – 120 minute regrouping and integration via Zoom.

Our Presenters
Dianne Disston is a licensed Psychoanalyst, an ordained Interfaith Minister, trained Spiritual Guide, and certified Grief, Trauma & Renewal Counselor. She has a private practice via Zoom, which integrates both her spiritual and psychoanalytic approaches as her clients require. She loves music, nature, her two adult children, David & Ashleigh, their partners, Brynn & Athena, and her husband, Todd. Dianne believes spending time with friends and colleagues to create a safe community is a way to expand Love in our world. Her greatest wish is to continue that expansion of Love in as many ways as possible.
LaNell Haydon writes both fiction and non-fiction on topics involving spiritual insights, delving into the human experience and the divine. She is a graduate of the Guild’s Apprenticeship Program and has served on the Board of Directors since 2022. She also co-hosts a podcast with Bernice Marie-Daly (Apprenticeship Program Cultivator/Teacher) called From Stardust to Us.
Why This Matters
We honor the deep human need for meaning, purpose, and sacred community. In our gatherings, we remember the healing power of shared grief and gratitude, creating a space where acts of love ripple outward, healing our lives, the lives of others, and our world.
This is more than a meeting; it’s a return to what we’ve always known we needed: each other.
