How much\r\nis enough? Through personal reflection, discussion, play, and worship\r\nsharing, participants will explore queries to discover our power of\r\nenough.

A field trip to the\r\nHennepin Hooper Lakes of the Dixon Wildlife Refuge managed by the\r\nWetland Initiative to learn about wetland restoration from the steward,\r\nRick Seibert.

This workshop will demonstrate the outsized impact\r\nFriends voices can have in building relationships with elected\r\nofficials, influencing members of Congress, and changing public policy.\r\nParticipants will become familiar with FCNL's suite of online advocacy\r\ntools and learn how to find common ground and areas of disagreement to\r\ncultivate constructive conversations when communicating with Congress.\r\nThe workshop will close with success stories of faithful Quaker\r\nadvocates, Q&amp;A, and discussion.<em> Friday<\/em>\r\n<p><\/p>\r\n<p><b>In-person? Hybrid? Zoom-only? Going back to normal? Going forward\r\nto something else? How are we being led as a monthly meeting community?<\/b>\r\nPam Kuhn, Lake Forest. The pandemic forced changes on our monthly\r\nmeetings that we could not have predicted just a few years ago. Now is\r\na good time to take a look at who we have become and how we are being\r\nled for the future. This workshop will provide an opportunity to share\r\nwith each other what our monthly meeting is facing right now. Together\r\nwe may make resources known and hold each other in Light as we\r\nstrengthen our meetings for the future. I plan to provide some queries\r\nthat I hope will help with the discernment process. <i>Friday<\/i><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<b>How to Talk About Issues That Matter<\/b>, Sharon Goens (American\r\nFriends Service Committee). How to talk about the issues that matter:\r\nFinding ways to communicate with each other has never been more\r\nimportant. But it can be especially difficult to talk about issues like\r\nimmigration, policing, incarceration, racism, and inequality in our\r\nincreasingly divided world. Research can show us which shared values\r\ncan help us communicate effectively about the issues that matter. In\r\nthis workshop you will learn how to identify your audience and then\r\ncraft a compelling message based on the values that you share.\r\nIntergenerational. <i>Saturday<\/i><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<b>Communing with Nature in the Prairie Pollinator Garden<\/b>, Noel\r\nPavlovic (ILYM Environmental Concerns Committee). Explore the\r\ndeveloping prairie pollinator garden being developed by the ILYM\r\nEnvironmental Concerns Committee. Why have a pollinator garden? What\r\nrole do benches and paving stones play in its function? What ecological\r\nprinciples have been used to select the plants that are being grown and\r\ndetermine how they are arranged? How long will it take for the garden\r\nto reach its full potential for pollinators and humans? Are there\r\nadditional features that you would like to see here? These are many of\r\nthe questions we will explore on our contemplative walk.\r\nIntergenerational; Limit 15 participants. <i>Saturday<\/i><br>\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Quakers and Class, an Introduction<\/strong>, <em>Duneland\r\nMonthly Meeting, Elkhart River Worship Group, &amp; Brad Laird (ILYM\r\nField Secretary)<\/em>. The workshop will look at different definitions\r\nof social class, see how to apply one or more of them to monthly\r\nmeetings in a way that elucidates strengths and weaknesses in the\r\nability to be experienced as welcomed (whatever one's class) and\r\nwelcoming. The intersectionality of social class with gender, race,\r\nability, and other social categories will be acknowledge . Social class\r\nconcerns can either divide people or allow people to celebrate equality\r\nthrough diversity. <em>Saturday<\/em> <\/p>\r\n<strong>Banner Making<\/strong>, <em>Margaret Nelson (Evanston Monthly\r\nMeeting)<\/em>.

On the south side of \u201cQuaker Lane\u201d is the meetinghouse, parking areas, several large tents, a farmhouse, and several outbuildings. The tents are used for the children\u2019s programs, workshops, and outdoor dining. On the north side of the road is a campground which includes a parking area, a showerhouse, space for tents, 6 small cabins, and buildings used for High School and Middle School Friends.<\/p>\r\n<p>Annual Sessions is primarily planned and managed by volunteers, so we ask everyone to pitch in. All Friends over age 10 are asked to sign up for at least two volunteer jobs during Annual Sessions, which might include helping during a meal, cleaning a bathroom, or helping with childcare or the children\u2019s programs. Volunteer sign-up sheets are located near the registration table.<\/p>\r\n<p>Please do not bring pets. Do not smoke in the buildings or on the grounds (including campground). Keep noisy activities away from Friends who need quiet. Respect the surrounding farm crops and property.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>DIRECTIONS<\/strong>: The meetinghouse address is: 14365 N. 350th Ave., McNabb, IL 61335.<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>From Champaign-Urbana: Take I-74 west to Bloomington-Normal, then I-39 north to Rt. 18 west.

Attenders, whether on-site or virtual are asked to reflect on the cost ILYM incurs for their attendance at sessions and pay as led in relation to this cost and their ability to afford this cost.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>COVID CONCERNS<\/strong>: Guidance of Federal and Illinois health authorities will be followed.
