Agate Passage Friends Meeting

 

Autumn Gatherings to Explore Friends Testimonies

 

                             Community  -  Simplicity  -  Peace -  Equality -  Personal Ministry

Starting Wednesday - September 10, 2008 

 

Prior to each gathering, Friends will be asked to think about the Testimony and prepare a query that has personal meaning and might also resonate with the Meeting as a whole.  For example, for the gathering on Simplicity, a query might be

 

"Do I live my life in harmony with the environment, endeavoring not to waste Earth's resources?"

 

At the gathering on that Testimony, a facilitating Friend will guide a discussion based on the queries submitted.  Resident historian on the roots of the Testimony will be Lorena Bruff.

 

These Gatherings are meant to be open-hearted and open-minded.  The usual schedule will be: a simple meal at 6:30 PM followed by discussion at 7:00 PM and adjournment at 9:00 PM ("Quaker Midnight).
