To Everything There Is a Season:
A Time to Gather

Brinton House, Pendle Hill
Wallingford, PA 19086-6023

The Quaker Lesbian Conference exists to be a loving time and space in which self-defined women (including those who are transgendered) who are Quaker or familiar with Quakerism, and who are lesbian, bisexual, or moving towards those identities, can connect with Spirit and with each other. We envision a community in which each woman shares worship, spiritual exploration and loving relationships in an environment that embraces diversity, individual leadings, struggle, and play.

QLC 2007: a success!

Dear Friends,

Our gathering is now behind us, but we can keep its spirit alive by sharing our remembrances and planning for future gatherings. Ahavia and Shelley spoke during the conference about the possibility of creating a Google or Yahoo! group for interested folks... although there are a few among us who are not internet-enabled. Do Friends have thoughts about that?

In other news, there's a great site that can serve as a jumping off point for further exploration of the Quaker Blogosphere; if you haven't checked it out already, see Martin Kelley and Friends' QuakerQuaker.org

The 31st annual Quaker Lesbian Conference will be held
Friday, Aug. 17 to Sunday, Aug. 19, 2007
at a conference center in New Jersey

The conference theme is:
Building Bridges Across Class, Race and Age

The Quaker Lesbian Conference exists to be a loving time and space in which women (self-defined) familiar with Quakerism, who are lesbian, bisexual, transgendered or moving towards those identities, can connect with Spirit and with each other. We envision a community in which each woman shares worship, spiritual exploration and loving relationships in an environment that embraces diversity, individual leadings, struggle, and play.

The center is located in the middle of downtown Burlington, an urban setting. We will have exclusive use of this accessible facility. There are bunk beds and attenders will need to plan to bring their own linens. There is ample and interesting space for workshops and an old attached Meeting House in which to hold worship.

For more information or to add your name to the mailing list,
send an email to QLConf (at) aol.com

And please help us get the word out!
