About This Event
Fall Continuing Sessions 2024:
All Friends everywhere are invited to join Fall Continuing Sessions at Arch Street Meeting House. Our theme “Called to Healing” acknowledges that this is a vulnerable time in our world and as Quakers, we are charged with joining in the work of healing and renewal. Fall Sessions will begin on Friday, November 8th and conclude on Sunday, November 10th. Friday and Saturday will be hybrid, with both in-person and online options, but all activities on Sunday will be online or at a local PYM meeting.
We encourage Friends to consider making Fall Sessions an overnight weekend experience! Home hospitality worked so well for Annual Sessions that we are planning to do it again for Fall Sessions. Sign-ups coming soon for both hosts and guests. There are also several hotels close to Arch Street; a list of options will be provided.
