Join QEW in reading Hospicing Modernity: Facing Humanity’s Wrongs and the Implications for Social Activism by Vanessa Machado de Oliveira. This QEW eco-book group will be led by avid reader and devoted educator Ethan Smith. This series will delve into discussions on how we can face the challenges of our time with integrity and reimagine how we learn, unlearn, and respond to crisis.
Recurring Events
-
Monthly Worship Sharing
Typically, Fourth Tuesday of each month, 7 p.m. Eastern time/4 p.m. Pacific time
In worship sharing, we gather in small groups to focus on a particular query to explore our own 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.”
-
Weekly Fellowship Hour
Each Friday, 7 p.m. Eastern/4 p.m. Pacific
Most Monthly Meetings have a fellowship hour for dialogue and discussions—the QEW Fellowship hour is designed to mimic this informal environment! Come as you are to discuss earthcare, spirituality, Quakerism, and catch up with other dear people in our community.
