Friends Center of Ohio Yearly Meeting

A Structured Sojourn
with Conservative Friends

Facilitators: Ken and Katharine Jacobsen

April 25 - 27, 2008

Cost: $60 per person

As the responses of participants in the Structured Sojourn we offered in the spring of 2007 were enthusiastic, we are offering this format again.

Many Conservative Friends believe they can best share their faith by "letting their lives speak."  To share a way of life that grows out of faith, participants will spend two nights as guests in the homes of Friends of Stillwater Monthly Meeting, joining their hosts for breakfast and parts of their ordinary lives, including work projects.

Time will also be scheduled for Sojourn participants to gather together with the group leaders at the Friends Center for reflection, discussion and other meals.

Persons interested in a longer sojourn experience should contact the Friends Center to explore possibilities.

Ken and Katharine Jacobsen are members of Ohio Yearly Meeting currently living in Wisconsin.  While living in Ohio and active in Stillwater Monthly Meeting, Ken and Katharine served in the leadership of Olney Friends School.  Katharine is an elder of Stillwater Meeting.

Groups of five to 12 people who would like to sojourn together may contact the Friends Center to arrange a custom date and to discuss any particular interests the group may have.  Facilitators for a specially arranged sojourn may be Frances Taber and Richard Simon, Friends Center Coordinators, or other members of Ohio Yearly Meeting.

To register, use the form below or include the information requested on a piece of paper.
