Monthly Reading:

The writings of Fox and many other Friends all point to communion
as central to Quaker Worship. When we have entered into that experience of communion, we realize that we did not create it through our action of worship; all we did was to enter a reality which has always been there from the beginning of time, waiting or just to join it, for “In the beginning was the Word.” Devout souls across history have experienced this reality, this Logos. It is always here with us and beside us, available to us as an invisible stream into which we can step at any time.
-Four Doors to Meeting for Worship- William Tabor (1992)

Corporate Query:

What is our growing edge as a spiritual community? How is the Spirit
moving among us? Where have we found sustenance and nurture? How have we sought to hold up and care for our meeting communities?
