A distinctive feature of the Quaker Voluntary Service (QVS) program is the Spiritual Nurturer who is partnered with each QVS Fellow. A member of one of the supporting meetings in the Boston area (Cambridge, Fresh Pond, Beacon Hill, Wellesley, Framingham) accompanies each Fellow during the year with monthly check-ins to explore the spiritual aspects of the Fellow’s service and community living experience. Spiritual Nurturers often form long term bonds with their Fellows, and report that their own spiritual growth is enriched by the relationship. This year Gail Rogers, Jennifer Hogue, and Polly Atwood from FMC are serving as Spiritual Nurturers. Past nurturers from FMC are Wendy Sanford, Elise Springuel, Jo Ellen Hillyer, Dinah Starr, Christa Redner, Patricia Wild, Jonathan Vogel-Borne, Cornelia Parkes, Jane Jackson, Kim West, Michael Shanahan, Nancy Bloom, Minga Claggett-Borne, and Erin Bumgarner. If you are interested in finding out more, please get in touch with Jane Jackson, Spiritual Nurturer Anchor for Boston QVS, , at qvs@fmcquaker.org or any of the nurturers named above.
