QuakerSpring 2010

If you yearn for a more vibrant spiritual community,

If you hunger for more time for worship, reflection, and deepening the connections among Friends,
Come to QuakerSpring!

QuakerSpring at Stillwater: Experiencing the Inward Christ Together
Barnesville, Ohio
June 27-July 4, 2010

We invite all Friends hungry for spiritual community, of all ages, to spend time in worship, reflection, conversation, and play. We hope to bring together Friends from all branches of Quakerism, to share what Spirit-led Quakerism is about at its core--and to experience it together.

An "un-preprogrammed" daily program including:
--Bible reading and study

--Waiting worship

--Afternoons free for rest, play, workshops, opportunities for clearness & support for ministries.

--Evening time to reflect/search together for God's voice around issues of concern to Friends arising out of the group.

For more on the  "shape of our days" at QuakerSpring, go to Daily Schedule

Families are welcome. We have children's programs each morning and childcare available in the evenings.  Children are also welcome to take part in ANY of our regular sessions.

There will be dormitory housing at Olney Friends School, and space for camping (with RV hookups and bathroom and shower facilities) around the Stillwater Meetinghouse. For more information on available free-time activities & the surrounding area, click on Site & Activities.

Costs for attending this gathering are very low.
A guideline ($25-40/day/adult including meals for those staying in dorm rooms) is provided but no one should stay away because of limited means.
