Both of these workshops were led by Gor- don Husk, a mediator with Com- munity Mediation Services of the Waterloo region. The weekend ended with a pot luck meal and worship service in the Quaker tradition. The Quakers, r retreat trace their roots to the 17th century in England. One of their key affir- mations is a belief in "that of God" in everyone, which leads them to look for, and nurture the good in each person. Other distinctives include a belief in a continuing revelation or unfolding of truth, and a centuries-longcommitment to peace and social justice.
