The Wellesley chapter of the organization was active from c.1950 to 2009. The mission of the organization, born in the spirit of prayer and advocacy, “is a women’s movement fundamentally grounded in the biblical principles of the Christian faith and the richness of denominational diversity” (1999 CWU Local Unit Handbook, section 1, pages 3-4). The organization prides itself in being “a company of women of every racial, ethnic, economic, educational, and age group” (1988-1989 booklet). The national organization was initially conceived as a women’s peacemaking group, formed just after the attacks on Pearl Harbor in December 1941. “From December 11-14, 1941, 100 women from three interdenominational women’s groups met … to form the United Council of Church Women (UCCW). This newly-formed Council represented women from 70 Protestant denominations” (Handbook, section 1, page 3).

  • Meeting Handbook
    Handbook on the Organization and Practices of the Ann Arbor Friends Meeting Religious Society of Friends Fourth Edition Ann Arbor, Michigan 2007 (Last update in 2013) Ann Arbor Friends Meeting 1420 Hill Street Ann Arbor, MI 48104 734 761-7435 Meetings for Worship: Sunday at 9:00 am (except third Sundays) Sunday at 11:00 am First Day School: Sundays at 11:20 am Visitors are welcome at all meetings. Further information may be obtained from the Meeting Worker or the Clerk of the Meeting, as listed in the Meeting Directory, the weekly Handout, and the monthly Newsletter. Introduction This Handbook is intended for everyone who wishes to know more about Ann Arbor Friends Meeting. Newcomers who are just learning about Quakerism may want to explore the sections on the history of Friends and our own Meeting, Friends’ testimonies, meetings for worship, and religious education (chapter 1). Those who have attended long enough to become more familiar with the Meeting may consult the Handbook to learn about committees they could join (chapter 2), to find out how to apply for membership (chapter 3), or to understand how we relate to larger circles of Friends and decipher the alphabet soup of Friends’ organizations (chapter 5). Experienced Friends who have taken on new responsibilities can review their job descriptions or refresh their memory about our Meeting’s practices concerning marriage under its care, memorial meetings, or financial matters (chapters 2 and 3). Whatever their familiarity with the Meeting, F/friends are encouraged to give prayerful attention to our queries, advices, and statements on issues of concern, such as payment of war taxes and opposition to the death penalty (chapter 4), or to discover further sources of information about Quakerism (chapter 6).
