The Queries

quotation

"Let Righteousness flow among you all, Truth and equity, uprightness and holiness, which become the house of God.  Live in the holy order of the Life, Spirit and Power of the everlasting God. Keep in the Faith that works by Love, that purifies your hearts, the mystery of which is held in a pure conscience...."  George Fox 1666

 

Our Weekend at Twin Lakes Camp, August 20-22, is almost upon us.  Please sign up so cabin assignments can be made and food can be planned.   Also volunteer to assist with meal preparation. 

Judy Mauer will be with us to be able to share one on one her experiences and work on behalf of Northwest Yearly Meeting.

Bring craft supplies and family pictures, photos of loved ones far away or pets, cars, work, favorite sports or activities that can be placed in an album - a way we can better know for whom we pray.

Plan to have a great time of fellowship, worship, swimming, boating or just reading and relaxing. 

Worship Queries

 

In summarizing discussions of the Meeting regarding enhancing our worship experience our Elders submitted this set of Queries to the Monthly Meeting.

 

Do we encourage sufficient breadth and depth in our approaches to worship, including style, participants, order, and physical arrangement of the room?

 

Do aspects of our worship help us to understand and appreciate a richer Quaker theology? Do we sing songs that speak particularly to our Quaker tradition?

 

Do we prepare ourselves for worship prior to arriving at the Meeting House to allow the Spirit to work within us?

 

Do we contribute to the atmosphere of worship? What helps us focus and become centered during open worship?
