SILENT QUAKER RETREAT
September 25-27, 2026
This retreat will be held in silence in the manner of Friends. Though Mandy and I are "leading" the retreat, the silence will be the true teacher. Our role will be to guide introductions, encourage outer and inner silence, and bring the weekend to a close. Click here for more info.
