During the current pandemic, Powell House is facilitating a series of virtual workshops on a donate-as-led basis.

On Saturday afternoon, April 25th, they will present “Discerning Personal Testimonies” with Cai Quirk from 2:00pm-4:00pm. For additional information and to register, visit the Powell House website.

Early Quakers held integrity as the deepest testimony and discerned further personal testimonies as led by the divine. Many of these followed themes that led to common Quaker testimonies today: Simplicity, Peace, Integrity, Community, Equality, Stewardship. These are indeed inspiring to explore, and resonate for many Quaker seekers. This workshop will support and explore discernment around developing and/or deepening personal testimonies. 

Cai Quirk is a lifelong Quaker with passions for Witness, personal discernment, and diverse methods of spiritual deepening. With a gender that transcends binaries, Cai is practiced at deeply questioning societal expectations and norms and in shifting towards roots of individual and group integrity. Spiritual deepening, Witness, and integrity are expanded in Cai’s music and photography practices. Their photography series Transcendence connects themes of spirituality, mythology, and gender diversity as related to global and timeless patterns. See more at caiquirk.com.
