Let's gather, learn, and grow together! Building on the very successful 2025 kickoff, the 2nd annual gathering of the West Coast New Thought Music Collective is coming on May 22 & 23, 2026. This inspiring and joy-filled event is designed for music ministry staff & volunteers, musicians, singers, songwriters, and anyone involved with positive, spiritual music! It will take place at Unity of Walnut Creek, California. Visit the Collective's website for further details.

The weekend includes workshop sessions on music ministry resources & best practices, song selection & service elements, supporting your ministry with powerful music, and much more. There will be plenty of time for networking & connection with fellow musicians and church music personnel, as well as inspiring performances by attendees and presenters. This event is open to everyone, at all levels, from all types of ministries. We have a lot to share and a lot to learn from each other!
