Spirit-led decision making is based on faith in continuing revelation and listening to the Light within each person. Grounded in the historic experience of Quakers, this process integrates worship, listening for God’s guidance, and corporate decision making. Share stories of conflict within your faith community. Practice skills in handling conflict and dissent, integrating differences, and moving beyond consensus to discover spiritual unity. Learn how to apply these skills where you worship and work.
$380/private room; $300/shared room; $220/commuter.
March 21-23 is particularly for clergy and those who work weekends
