Clearness & CareThe Clearness and Care Committee seeks to build a Meeting community in which all members and attenders find acceptance, loving care, and the opportunity for service. As the name implies, it has the dual role of helping people to find clarity in their spiritual journey, as well as finding support and nurturance as needed. One of the tools that the Clearness and Care Committee uses to help friends find clarity is a clearness committee, where a friend meets with a small group of other friends. The confidential discernment process is focused on listening to both the friend seeing clarity as well listening as we do in meeting, for the small still voice of the Spirit. The caring role of the committee is demonstrated by promotion of community through social gatherings, activities, and visitations. The committee sponsors two annual social events each year; a picnic at Sherwood Oaks and a welcoming brunch for new members. The committee maintains contact with members and attenders who may be sick or unable to attend Meeting for Worship. It also composes and sends an end of the year review to distant members. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to talk with anyone on the committee.
Queries are questions offered by the group for self-examination. Each person is expected to regularly ask himself or herself about the state of his or her spiritual life in answer to the Queries. We don't have a creed or a statement of belief, but these Queries point us in a similar, but more dynamic, direction. |
