The year is a great thread.
Two gatherings run on alternating Sundays at 6:30 PM Central: an open teaching that anyone may attend, and the board meeting. The festival year and the household days sit alongside them.

Netism Public Teachings
Every other Sunday, 6:30 PM Central
Open to anyone
An open teaching on Netism, held on Zoom. Anyone may attend, and there is nothing to prepare and nothing to join. We take the foundations in turn: the Net itself, the Nine Points, the cycles, the Return. Time is kept at the end for questions and open discussion. These fall on the Sundays between board meetings.

All day
Family Day
Family Day
Kept at home
Monday evening belongs to the people you live among. Cook together, play something, put a film on, stay at the table after the food is gone. A household without children fills the room with friends and asks them directly. Each house sets its own hour, and a Monday missed comes round again in a week.

All day
Day of Service
Day of Service
Wherever you live
Go out into your own town and be useful. Volunteer at a non-profit, clear a stretch of highway, serve a meal at a shelter, help a neighbour put in a garden. Nobody you help has to share your path, and you never need to ask. Go where the need is and let that decide the day.
