Friends,
 Tomorrow, Western Washington FOR will host its annual spring assembly in Seattle -- featuring a keynote address by long-time activist priest Bill ("Bix") Bichsel and several workshops centered on "Challenges of Nonviolence and Sustainability." They will serve as antidotes to some of the many problems we see around us and will encourage us to act daily in ways that support our deepest values.
Additionally, please save the date for two upcoming events in Poulsbo and Seabeck, both on the Kitsap Peninsula across Puget Sound from Seattle, in May and July.
In this moment of national turmoil, we need nonviolent social change more than ever. We hope to see you at one of these upcoming events!
