QEW Visitations

We'd love to visit your Monthly or Quarterly Meeting! We'd like to meet other Friends who share our love of and concern for God's precious Creation—this fragile planet, Earth.

We are actively seeking invitations to meet with other Friends, and welcome the opportunity to listen to your concerns about the Earth and our relationship to it, or to give an adult class or forum on QEW's work or on any of a wide range of topics followed by discussion.
Because we are mindful of keeping our ecological footprint as small as possible, we make an effort to send "QEW ambassadors" who are as geographically local as possible.  We also work through Yearly Meeting Earthcare or FUN committees, who can provide you with an Earthcare visitor.

Please email:
Ruah Swennerfelt, QEW General Secretary, at <ruah@quakerearthcare.org>
or Hollister Knowlton, clerk of Outreach Ministry, at <h.knowlton@comcast.net>.
