Philadelphia is a focal point of the celebrations. What can we learn from the last 250 years? What do we want our world to look like 250 years from now? What is our role in caring for one another?

How can we deepen our personal spiritual practices?  \nLike past Continuing Revolution programs\, this offering is simultaneously grounded in Quaker values and practices and open to those with no prior knowledge or experience with Quakerism. We welcome all seekers who are interested in exploring the intersection of their personal spiritual journey and community needs\, regardless of faith or ideology.  \nStay tuned for more details about workshops.
