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 9-14, 2009
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.
 Program:
--Bible study --Waiting worship (some days with "extended worship")
--Afternoons will be free for workshops and focused conversations arising out of our time together, as well as play and family activities.
--Evenings will include plenary offerings, and opportunities for corporate discernment around issues rising out of the group.
Families are welcome. We will arrange for childcare and/or children's program if we have plenty of notice. 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.
Suggested contributions, adequate to cover the fees charged by Olney Friends School, will be posted on this site early in the spring of 2009.
 Registration will begin Tuesday morning, June 9th, at 10 am. The gathering will close after lunch on Sunday, June 14.
