Quaker Earthcare Witness’ Fall Gathering is our annual in-person and hybrid gathering of Friends from around the world. We gather to worship, learn, engage in fellowship, and hold meetings for worship with attention to business to determine the future of QEW. We will have ample opportunities to connect with one another, share our wisdom, and learn about practical steps toward Earthcare. Our Fall Gathering is open to anyone interested in Quaker concerns for Earthcare.

In Person Location is Powell House
