March 14: After meeting program |
Query: Meeting for business
How can we hold our meetings for Business in the spirit of love, understanding and patient search for unity without becoming frustrated by differences of opinions or the pressures of time? How do we respond when no one else in the meeting seems to hold the views that we do on an issue? How do we respond to a dissenting minority? How do we share responsibilities among Friends in our meeting? How do we serve our meetings? |

Penn Valley Meeting of Friends’ Principles for Weddings and Funerals
Sunday, November 27, 2009
A fundamental guideline for our approach to this issue is that our principles (and the way we put them into practice) should show love both to those who attend Penn Valley, and to those who are married or memorialized here.
Is it workable to combine unprogrammed worship with a programmed meeting for worship with a focus on marriage or memorializing?

"The Joy of Walking" by Kathy Weber and Larry Herndon |

We always knew at some point in our lives we would become minor celebrities, we just thought it would be from playing ukuleles and kazoos. Never did we imagine it would be for walking to work!

We'd love to have you join us for worship. The Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) is not a closed community but a group of seekers like you. Meeting for Worship: 10am-11am, First Days (Sunday) Fellowship: 11am-11:30am After Meeting Program: 11:30-12:30 Penn Valley Friends Meeting is an "unprogrammed Meeting." The Quaker worshipping community has traditionally been called a Meeting for Worship. The worship is "unprogrammed" because there is no order of service and we have no pastor or minister. These are practices that follow from the convictions of those who founded the Relgious Society of Friends in the seventeenth century. |
