By our discussion of  writings on Race in America,  we propose to deepen our understanding of where we have been as a country and the contribution of the past to where we are today. By our shared inquiry we hope to discern how as individuals, communities and a nation we can move forward to where we would like to be.

26 Dec
Quaker Earthcare Witness Worship Sharing
12.26.2023 7:00 pm - 8:15 pm

This is a special time each month where Friends across many time zones gather to connect and deepen our connection with Creation and Spirit. Our hope is that we will create a sacred space and encounter in each other in “that which is eternal.” Please join us! All are welcome!

Together we are creating more opportunities for Friends to be in spiritual community with one another. We'll be gathering Fourth Tuesdays of the month from 7:00 - 8:15 PM Eastern. In worship sharing, we gather in small groups to focus on a particular question (or questions) to explore our own experience experience and share with each other more deeply than we would in normal conversation. It seeks to draw us into sacred space, where we can take down our usual defenses, and encounter each other in “that which is eternal.” We welcome all to join us!
