From 2026, the Yearly Meeting gathers in session more often than once a year. These sessions are responsible for continuing deliberation, discernment and the oversight of our corporate religious life and witness. There may be a longer gathering over several days, and several shorter further gatherings during the year. From time to time there may be longer residential Yearly Meetings as needed. All these gatherings have the same constitutional authority, purpose, agenda preparation, decision-making processes, and attendance arrangements.

The dates and locations of future Yearly Meeting sessions and of any residential Yearly Meetings are agreed in advance by Yearly Meeting in session on the recommendation of its agenda planning committee.
