Sunday Gathering Brussels
Gathering is an essential part of being human. When we sing, share, play, dance, hold rituals, eat together… We move beyond dogma. Sunday Gathering is about the simple yet radical choice to gently ease open our hearts and trust the voice of love to guide the way.
Many of us have become isolated in our spiritual journeys, atomised by our individual interests, unaware of the mycelial network that connects us and the abundance of resources available to help us flourish.
Sunday Gathering is about remembering the sacredness of life, our belonging to a wider web and that our soul-given gifts are designed to be lived and shared.
Sunday Gathering takes place in Brussels once a month on a Sunday afternoon. Starting with a singing circle and a moment of contemplation, participants then choose between practices exploring different aspects of connection - to self, to others, and to something greater. We finish the afternoon together enjoying a shared meal.

The event will be mainly in English, but some practices may be proposed in other languages.

GIFTS
The Gathering is experimenting with a gift model,
meaning that everyone is invited to contribute according to their means.
We will ask participants during the afternoon to give financially and energetically to bring this community space to life.
FINANCIAL GIFTS
We recommend 15 / 25/ 35+ euros as a base to meet the needs of the project. Your responsible donations ensure its sustainability, which requires a significant investment from those involved. You will be invited to donate by cash or QR code at the door.
ENERGETIC GIFTS
We believe that this space is best created by and for the community, from our own unique gifts. Concretely, to run the event we need practical help - setting up, decorating, cleaning up, taking photos, making an extra large dish of food… - or maybe you have a special way you would like to contribute. Either way, let us know in the registration form!

Who is behind
Sunday Gathering?
My name is Ani and I have been gathering people together in various forms since 2019.
As a singer with a heart for devotional music, I have led numerous singing circles and am convinced of their incredible power to liberate, connect and elevate (artist name: Ani Rose). When guiding circles I share mantras from various spiritual traditions, as well as original songs, with a desire to connect with the essence underlying them all.
My own journey has brought me from a rigidly dogmatic Evangelical Protestant upbringing, to stumbling through an arid lifeless spiritual desert in my 20s, to awkwardly but authentically seeking my own way across several years and countries.
During this vulnerable process I rediscovered my love of devotional music, but through the lens of mantras and ícaros rather than worship songs. Music helped me heal the religious trauma I had been carrying and reconnected me to the love of gathering meaningfully in community.
Throughout the past 7 years, I have attended and facilitated numerous workshops on a range of topics, from authentic relating to embodiment. I felt the essence that was weaving these different spaces together, yet did not find one home to house them all. That’s when The Gathering was born. Now feels like the opportune time to gather together with others, exploring spiritual paths and practices that break free of dogma and remind us of the interconnectedness of all things.
