About
The Gathering Space for Spiritual Well-Being (The Gathering Space) comprises one main reservable space, office space for spiritual advising, two foot-washing rooms, a kitchenette, and a lounge area. It is connected to other conference rooms in the Center for Well-Being. Students, staff, faculty, and Religious Council members from all religious and spiritual backgrounds use the space to meet, worship, discuss, and celebrate their individual and/or collective faiths and philosophical worldviews. This space was created by UMBC community members who saw the need to honor religious and spiritual diversity as a core part of holistic well-being and success.
