Welcoming Families into Quaker Community

(US/Pacific)

In today’s fast paced world, it is easy for parents and caregivers to feel buffeted by hurried schedules, multiple demands, and our technology-driven culture. Parents and caregivers may be looking for like-minded people for sharing their child-rearing questions, challenges, and experiences. Quaker meetings can offer a spiritual home, the respite of silent worship, opportunities for families to share deeply with each other, a safe place to think differently, and caring, multigenerational community.

In this workshop, we will talk about being welcoming, building trust, appreciating the gifts each family brings, and being connected and sustained by our faith.
