To Serve... working with others, helping people to help themselves.
To Learn... about your part in creating a caring community.
To Share... your skills, your time, yourself.
Washington Quaker Workcamps offers opportunities for community service which seek
to address social concerns in concrete ways. In this way we bear witness to the
Quaker belief that we should lovingly answer that of God in each person.
All weekend workcamps strive to bring together people who might not otherwise find
ways of bridging differences of race, religion, or economic circumstance.
I particularly remember stepping back from the site and looking at all our hard work
at the end of a long day when the sun was beginning to shift, and I suddenly realized
the magnitude of the work we did. It was a very fulfilling and wonderful feeling.
