After many years of discussion and discernment, the Meeting approved a new building.
1. AMM approves moving forward with a building project including an auxiliary building on our current grounds, along with possible renovations to our current Meetinghouse and landscaping.
2. AMM approves taking the steps recommended by the Fundraising Outreach Group (FOG), namely, to form and be willing to serve on interacting working groups: for example, (1) Design, (2) City Regulations and Permitting,
(3) Finances, (4) Fundraising, (5) Community Outreach & Engagement, (6) Children/Youth Programming, and
(7) Ongoing Conversations Within the Meeting. Minor Morgan and Sara Keeney will act in a coordinating role with respect to the working groups.
3. AMM approves committing an initial investment of up to $30,000 to hire an architect or other professionals and
to cover other related initial expenses of the working groups.

Fall Gathering
September 25-27, 2026
Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge
To all Friends seeking community and a spiritual anchor in these times, please gather for a weekend with the theme, Finding Presence in this Place and Time at the University of New Mexico Field Stations, located on the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge, 21 miles north of Socorro, NM.
What to expect: Guest speakers: Deborah Hackson Taffa, with roots on her mother's side with the Hispanics of nearby Socorro, and on her father's side with Laguna Pueblo and the Quechan/Yuma people of California. Learn about her book Whiskey Tender with accompanying queries.
Lodging Options: We have access to nine cabins at the UNM Field Station, which will be reserved on a first come, first-served basis. They include 29 rooms with 58 beds, so we may more attendees than they can accommodate at the facility. The room rate will be $60 single and $50 each for double occupancy. There are one or two RV/camper sites on campus. The Socorro Chamber of Commerce offers a list of RV and Camp sites https://socorronm.org/plan-your-trip/rv-camping/ as well as a lodging list https://socorronm.org/ plan-your-trip/lodging/ for off site accommodations.
