Here's a job opportunity at this magical Quaker summer camp.

We're still on the search for a Kitchen Coordinator for this summer. This lucky person can live at camp (room and board provided), or outside camp, if they prefer. They'll get to work with the beautiful fresh produce from our organic garden, and will captain the inaugural voyage of our brand-spankin' new kitchen!

We are really pleased to have Kate stepping into leadership for the
Minneapolis/St. Paul Quaker Voluntary Service program.

We're lucky to announce that Kate Cowie-Haskell (they/she) will be the new Minneapolis- Saint Paul Coordinator for QVS!

Kate was raised between the Florida Keys and Marshfield, MA. Their formative experiences playing among mangroves and tropical fish laid a foundation for an earth-based spirituality that they continue to put into words and practice. Kate attended Unitarian Universalist services growing up, but had not attended formal worship in many years by the time she befriended a group of QVS Fellows in 2017. These Fellows opened her eyes to the power of communal spiritual practice. After eight years spent between public radio and agriculture in the Boston area, Kate moved to Minneapolis in 2023 to pursue an M.Div in Social Transformation at United Theological Seminary of the Twin Cities. Kate considers dancing, knitting, and gardening to be foundational to her spiritual practice. She is thrilled to be putting love into action with QVS as the Minneapolis- Saint Paul Coordinator.

* Early Quakers disapproved of using the "pagan" names for days of the week, so Sunday became the First Day
** Quakers traditionally referred to WEDNESDAY as "Fourth Day" to avoid the pagan associations with the name "Wednesday", or in keeping with the practice of treating each day as equally divine
