Radnor
Monthly Meeting
Committees
In unprogrammed Quaker meetings, there being no paid clergy, the clerk and assistant clerk are resources for general information and overseeing that meeting business is handled. Much of the work of the meeting is done in committees.
The Finance Committee tends to the financial business of the meeting, preparing an annual budget and overseeing the expenditure and replenishment of the meeting's monetary resources.
The Forum Committee conceives of, schedules and hosts the Forums held on first and fourth First Days.
The Fellowship Committee provides refreshments each First Day, as well as the monthly Fellowship lunch.
The Landscape and Grounds Committee takes care of the physical plant of the meeting, scheduling routine tasks (mowing grass, shoveling snow) and periodic clean-up days.
The Library Committee sees to the stocking and maintenance of the meeting's library.
The Nominating Committee nominates members and attenders to positions on the other committees, presenting its recommendations to Meeting for Business for approval.
The Committee of Overseers assumes leadership for the pastoral duties of the meeting, seeking to help members and attenders who need support.
The Outreach Committee works on increasing our visibility in and connections with the surrounding community.
The Peace & Social Concerns Committee educates the meeting community on matters relating to our peace testimony and on Quaker witness in our community and the wider world. An outgrowth of Peace & Social Concerns, IHN (Interfaith Hospitality Network), coordinates our work with other congregations on the Main Line to help homeless families.
The Religious Education Committee supervises the First Day School activities for the meeting's children.
The Worship & Ministry Committee is responsible for the spiritual
direction of the meeting. Its members deal with concerns relating to the
quality of Meetings for Worship, the vocal ministry and other manifestations
of the spiritual life of the meeting.
