Annual Gathering Conference
Join us August 2-4, 2019 for the Spirit of Love Bereaved Parents of the USA National Gathering in St. Louis, MO!
Make plans now to attend the 2019 BPUSA National Gathering August 2-4 at the Sheraton Clayton Plaza Hotel in St. Louis, Missouri. Our Gathering theme is Spirit of Love reminding us as we face our own struggles, of the inspiration and hope our nation once found in the Spirit of St. Louis. Please join us and feel the love as we remember our children together.
The Gathering Conference will be a three-day event with keynote speakers, workshops, meals, entertainment and memorial ceremonies all designed to help bereaved parents and their families understand that they are not alone in their grief. Our annual Gatherings have been praised as wonderfully meaningful experiences, life-changing in many ways. Participants come away feeling refreshed and revitalized, better informed about the grieving process, more aware of hope and promise and affirmed by meeting new friends who travel the same path.
The Sheraton Clayton Plaza Hotel is a modern hotel designed to accommodate gatherings like ours, including clean, comfortable rooms, spacious conference facilities, a modern fitness center (including a pool) and a first-class restaurant. The hotel is offering special room rates to Gathering attendees.
Known for its iconic arch, a must-see attraction, St. Louis is a vacation destination of national prominence, with many sightseeing adventures to enjoy. Plan a family vacation in conjunction with the Gathering. Spend some time remembering your child and then explore life on the Mississippi in this bustling, modern “Gateway to the West.”
