Hard Earned Hope: Finding Our Way Together

  • Fri, Jun 23, 2023 1:30 PM Sun, Jun 25, 2023 5:00 PM

  • Western Oregon University (map)

Join us on Zoom or in person for our 6th annual sessions.

In addition to three thought-provoking evening plenaries (scroll down for info), we will celebrate the pastors who served our member meetings for many years: Mike Huber, Faith Marsalli, Clyde Parker, Lorraine Watson, and of course, Bernie Bosnjak. Business sessions will include joyful recommendations for recording the gifts of Friends in public ministry.

We will also offer times for special interest/affinity groups to meet. Currently, the list includes a group for LGBTQ Friends and another for 12-step recovery Friends. If you'd to attend another affinity group, email gathering@scymf.org.

We'll also have workshops, and most importantly, we will worship together.

On-line registration will open soon.

Plenaries:

Friday evening: From Memory to Hope
Leann Williams on the Healing Community

Saturday Evening: History, Truth, and the Power of Listening:
Friends and Alaska Native Peoples

Sunday Morning: Running On Empty in an In-Between Space
Mark Pratt-Russum on the Liminality of the Tomb and Hope for Resurrection
