Sunday, October 4 at 9:30 and 11 am.  With no draft and a Selective Service registration system often linked automatically to obtaining a state driver’s license, the idea of Conscientious Objection is fading from the consciousness and relevance of Friends, monthly meetings, and perhaps Quakerism as a whole. Without nurturing this fundamental component of our Peace Testimony in ourselves and our youth, we, as Quakers, run the risk of raising a generation ill-prepared to articulate and document claims against war and violence.  Everyone is encouraged to attend at least one session. These workshops are the first step in setting up a more formal meeting process for assisting youth in their effort to become more knowledgeable about conscientious objector status and giving them tools now to begin documentation.  In addition to youth and parents, we need all meeting adults to be informed also. Quaker House board member Curt Torrell will be here to conduct these workshops. Sponsored by Religious Education and Adult Spiritual Education committees.
