  • Facing Our Biodiversity-Climate Crisis: A Healing Practice of Communion with Life

    Saturday, July 19th at 1:30 pm Eastern / 10:30 am Pacific

    Bill Cahalan will share how the global biodiversity-climate crisis is a major moral crisis of our time. Then, we will be invited outdoors to participate in a contemplative practice that can open us to a humble, at times ecstatic sense of kinship with nearby other-than-human nature, which can extend to all life and the Cosmos itself.

  • Fall Gathering

    Thursday, October 16th to Sunday, October 19th 

    Save the date of our hybrid Fall Gathering. Each Fall, QEW gathers to worship together, learn from each other, share in fellowship, and do business together. This year, we are gathering at Powell House, a retreat center in Old Chatham, New York. Powell House works to foster spiritual growth after the manner of Friends and to strengthen the application of Friends’ testimonies in the world.

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.
