RegisterTending to the Tenders: Spiritual Care for Those on the Ecological Front Lines
Tuesday, November 10th, at 10 am Pacific | 1 pm Eastern
QEW is pleased to welcome Ram Appalaraju, Buddhist practitioner, teacher, and eco-chaplain, for an online webinar on how frontline workers, environmental activists, and people of faith can accompany our experiences of eco-grief rather than allowing ourselves to be consumed by it. Friends are invited to join us as we make space to name our fear, sorrow, anger, and love and hope for the future, and learn practices to help us stay grounded in our Earthcare work.

Register HereMonthly Worship Sharing
Typically, Fourth Tuesday of each month, 12 p.m. Eastern time/ 9 a.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.”
