Quaker Quest Update |
|||||||
| Friends General Conference (FGC), of which NEYM is a member, is encouraging its constituent monthly meetings to consider Quaker Quest programs, the goal being
to promote Quakerism as a spiritual path for our time that includes a search for
the sacredness of each person, an encounter with the divine through the power of
stillness, and a commitment to the ways of equality and nonviolence.
The recommended first step in doing so is to host a one-day workshop for meeting members and attenders only, and this was approved at our last Meeting for Business. The workshop will be led by two facilitators provided by FGC and will run from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM on Saturday November 13. Other meetings have found this workshop to be extremely valuable regardless of whether they decided to go ahead with further Quaker Quest activities. The success of the workshop will depend on our having a high level of participation, so please save this date on your calendars even though it may seem a long way off. You’ll be seeing a lot more information about the workshop over the next few months. |
