Fwd: Being Truly Seen and Heard: A Quaker Center Couples Enrichment Retreat

[talley kenyon]

Friends,

I am forwarding this note from Susan Willson at Quaker Center for two reasons.

1.  It is an invitation to enroll for a Couples Enrichment Program that will be held in person the weekend of January 28.

2.  It contains information about the safety protocols currently in place at QC, a question that often arises.

If you and your partner are interested in the retreat, Meeting purchases an annual pass that covers the cost of attending any QC program, including on line, in person, multi-day, camps, etc.  Meeting Life Committee keeps track of whether the pass is being used.  At present, I suggest contacting Cathe Wright if you want to use it for this or any of the upcoming programs.  First come, first claimed. 

Peace,

Talley

Dear Friends,

These last two years have not been easy for many of us - including those of us who are happily partnered.  Even loving, healthy relationships deserve a little time together to focus on one another and the relationship. 

Jeff and Kathy Richman are experienced Couples Enrichment leaders and have prepared a wonderful opportunity for Friends who are in committed partnership to take a weekend to focus more deeply on their relationship. Additional information about the schedule, registration and payment options is on the front page of the QC website.

Quaker Center just completed a wonderful in person Year End Retreat, where we worked as a community to keep one another safe.  The protocols we used for that retreat will also be in place for the Couples Enrichment Program. These protocols include: testing upon arrival, outdoor seating (with heat lamps and awning) for those who prefer to eat outside, providing KN95 masks for indoors, along with air purification and fans to keep the air circulating.  

If you would like additional information, please don't hesitate to call the Quaker Center office: 831-336-8333.  If you think you'd like to join us, please consider letting us know by Friday, January 14th.  We hope to see you soon at this or another Quaker Center program!  

Be well,

Susan & Bob
